Sophia Roydhouse-Ross

From the onset, it was clear that Refresh Renovations Hawkes Bay were going to be the right fit for us. Their commitment to effective communication was evident in every interaction. The team’s friendly approach wasn’t just about meeting expectations but consistently going above and beyond. What truly set them apart was their focus on understanding of our needs, the end point we desired, and keeping everything on track. When it came to build phase, Mike's onsite presence was invaluable and his strong relationship with their group of trade partners was clear. Each one mirrored their own high standards, ensuring a seamless renovation journey. Sophia, Mike and the team made what could have been a stressful process, a perfectly simple experience. Their dedication to client satisfaction and the art of home renovation is truly commendable. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to transform their home with confidence and peace of mind.

Refresh Renovations did a superb job on our new bathroom. The secret to completing these kinds of projects on time and on budget is good project management - making sure that the right person arrives at the right time to do the right job in the right order. It's like herding cats, and Refresh Renovations proved themselves to be first class cat herders. Everything ticked over like clockwork. Even the occasional hiccup (there are always occasional hiccups) was slotted into the project plan without fuss, and everything continued smoothly. My wife and I were very, very impressed. Even my dog was impressed - he made so many new friends, and they all made a huge fuss of him every time they turned up to do another job. In all seriousness, Sophia, Rachel and Mike were, at all times, professional, skillful, full of plans and suggestions, good advice and good humour. I recommend them very, very highly and I would have no hesitation in using them again.

We recently had our house renovated including implementing 5 new skylights to a rebuilt ceiling structure, upgrading a main bathroom, reconfiguring and installing an ensuite and installing a small but very functional laundry. The project took a little over three months while we lived onsite, so it was somewhat of a massive undertaking and involved refreshing about two thirds of our house. Mike, Sophia and Rachel managed all aspects of the project from initiation and concept through to implementation and management of the wider team. Sophia and Rachel were quick to respond to any questions or concerns in the early stages whilst Mike held a great rapport with all of the trades involved and was very knowledgeable on all areas during the implementation stage (and if he didn’t know he would find out for us if we had any urgent questions). He was able to get things fixed or changed quickly if required due to the reputation that Refresh has with the team of local tradies. They all took good care of us by providing up to date progress reports and scheduling as well as checking that we were happy with progress, We are very happy with the results and would highly recommend Refresh Renovations Hawkes Bay!

His daily contact with us explaining the next step was amazing, the trade people were very highly skilled, always friendly, obliging & ensuring their result was up to Mike’s high standard. We cannot thank this wonderful Refresh Team enough for the wonderful kitchen renovation they did for us. We highly recommend them to anyone who is looking at renovations to their home, you will not be disappointed in having them do whatever your project maybe.

From Kick off to touch down the team of Mike, Sophia and Rachel delivered us two beautiful renovated bathrooms. Meeting Sophia and Rachel initially, getting our ideas and giving theirs, then taking it to the design team came up with designs we could visualise, then taking us to choose fittings etc made the job less onerous for ourselves, and we appreciated all their input during the reno. Mike is in a league of his own. His daily contact with us and his tradies, kept us in the loop as to what was happening. His subcontractors, being excellent tradespeople, respected him and ourselves so having them in the house, whilst a noisy, dusty experience, was made easier with them all cleaning up at the end of each day.We have no hesitation in recommending Refresh to anyone contemplating a renovation.

The entire Refresh Renovations team were excellent, from start to finish. Every aspect of our planned renovations was discussed, and Sophia and Rachel assisted in our decision-making with professionalism and creativity. Their knowledge of products, of feasibility and of practicality was invaluable. We were fully involved and updated at every step of the way, and they patiently and clearly answered our myriad questions! No detail was too small or unimportant and anything we raised was dealt with swiftly and efficiently. During the build Mike as Project Manager was at pains to make sure we knew what the plan was week by week. He was involved with the trades on a daily basis and ensured that everything was completed to his exacting standards. We are absolutely thrilled with the results. We would highly recommend Refresh Renovations to anyone looking to do renovations in the future and, if it's bathrooms, make sure you take them up on the option of the portable shower. It was a lifesaver and is bigger and more efficient than many we have seen in motels and holiday parks!

We are so impressed with the team at Refresh Renovation - Hawkes Bay. Sophia, Rachel and Mike’s design flair, attention to detail, clarity of communication, and excellent project management ensured that a potentially stressful home renovation was actually really enjoyable and stress-free. They approached all aspects of this project with abundant professionalism, and any challenges were promptly and effectively resolved, with us being kept in the loop through the whole process. Their team of tradespeople were just superb, and it was a pleasure to have them in our home. All the tradespeople were on site when they said they would be and cleaned up at the end of each day, which was so appreciated as we remained in the house throughout the project. Mike went above and beyond on a daily basis, ensuring all aspects progressed seamlessly. We did have some variations that were unavoidable, but the Team provided excellent suggestions and modifications to our plans to ensure we adhered closely to our budget without compromising our vision. The project was completed within the timeframe indicated despite interruptions from Covid. We are absolutely thrilled with the outcome and can not recommend this team of talented professionals highly enough. Chris and Mel Emerald Hill Havelock North.

Mike, Sophia, and their team were a godsend from start to finish with my bathroom renovation.The whole process was seamless, they arranged everything, from making appointments, bringing samples to go through, giving advice, plus making suggestions.  Once the project began I received regular updates on how things were progressing; watching it on a daily basis and seeing all  the trades do their thing, it all came together!!I value the trusted working relationship Mike & Sophia have with their wider team, i.e. Tradies and the suppliers they work with, giving the total package of “customer service”. Thanks so much.

Finally deciding to proceed with a major renovation of my 1886 cottage was an extremely big deal for me, especially given the current building and renovation climate and the horror stories you would commonly hear. It’s fair to say I procrastinated a lot before finally committing and I appreciated Mike and Sophia’s patience at that time. And I’m so pleased I did commit and proceed! Not only was my renovation experience excellent, the outcome exceeded my expectation and I absolutely love my beautiful home! I did not have any of the issues I was worried about. The team of tradespeople that Refresh chose to work with were all great. There were no hold-ups due to product issues and, apart from a couple of variations that seemed sensible along the way, we stayed within budget. There was only one hiccup involving the colour of the benchtops which was an error on the part of the supplier, not Refresh, and this was resolved quickly and without question. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mike and Sophia. Their advice was sound throughout the process and although I had a pretty clear idea of what I wanted to achieve, they contributed many helpful ideas along the way. In terms of managing the project once the build got underway, exceptional! Everything went extremely smoothly and if not for the bench issue the job would have been completed well under the projected time. As it was, it still came in on time. I know I could not have taken on such a big renovation without their expertise and professionalism for which I remain very grateful.

Sophia and Mike were amazing, professional and had great communication throughout the project management of our house extension of master bedroom, ensuite, walk in wardrobe and laundry. Great at listening at ideas/issues and giving advice of products. Right from design to end of build they were there. Great contacts for sub contractors and local trade business. Can not fault them. Would recommend Sophia and Mike and will definitely use them in the future. Lynda and Steve Westaway.

I have really enjoyed working with Mike, Sophia and their team at Refresh. It was so great to have lots of advice on the initial plans. My renovation ideas completely changed after our first meeting .So many fun things to think about!!! From the beginning stages to the finished product they were nothing but professional. Communication was excellent and any questions I had were answered immediately. The tradesmen were all so respectful, friendly, professional and informative. It was much appreciated to have Mike on site most days to check progress and keep me updated. The work was carried out to a very high standard. I would highly recommend Refresh and would love to work with Mike and Sophia again if the situation arose.

Dianne and I want to thank you both so much and are grateful, not only for your professional standards, but also for your concern and loyalty during our renovation experience. Dianne and I were very fortunate to have you both as our project management team, organising all Registered Master Builders within the original renovation schedule. We were pleased with your ideas and vision, that gave our renovations a more modern and “Refresh” look to a higher standard than was previously imagined. Most importantly we want to thank you for the advantage of the realistic pricing, prior and to the commencement of our renovations. We have the privilege to know you both as passionate and resourceful renovation leaders, and look forward to our next renovation project together. Our Sincerest and Deepest Gratitude.

Sophia was wonderful. We had lots of ideas for what we wanted to do, but no clear plan or indication of cost, Sophia's advice has helped us get started on making plans for our future renovations and the level of trust gained from getting sensible advice has resulted in us choosing Refresh as our preferred partner for this future renovation work.

We are delighted with our renovation project. We now have a lovely new kitchen, an open living area and a beautiful bathroom. Sophia and Mike, from Havelock North, guided us with great ideas and paid close attention to every detail of the renovation. They liaised with quality companies and tradesmen who in turn, produced an excellent result for us. The inevitable challenges were quickly dealt with. We found them to be always accessible, quick to respond and communication between all parties was clear and timely. We would definitely recommend them and, in fact, we have booked another job with them for next year.

Frequently asked questions

Can you help with the design and selection of materials for a bathroom renovation?

Refresh Renovations’s unique process is designed to help you with every stage of the process, right from the planning, through design including selection of materials and finally the build.

Do I need a building consent for a new bathroom?

In New Zealand, the need for a building consent for a new bathroom largely depends on the extent of the work involved and the specific regulations of the local council. Generally, if your bathroom renovation involves structural changes, plumbing alterations, or electrical work, it is likely that you will require a building consent. This is because these changes may affect the safety, durability, and compliance of the building. It is important to consult with your local council or a qualified professional, such as a building inspector or architect, who can provide accurate guidance based on the specific details of your project and the local regulations.

Your renovation consultant at Refresh can take care of these checks on your behalf during the Working Drawings and Costing stage of the process. They will be able to assess whether a building consent is required and guide you through the process to ensure compliance with New Zealand's building standards.

Do Renovation Consultants work with specific contractors or can I choose my own?

Working with a Renovation Consultant means you’ll have access to a trusted network of contractors and suppliers in your area. But if you have a contractor already in mind, bring them up with your Renovation Consultant and they can work with them as well.

Can you work with different budgets for bathroom renovations in New Zealand?

Refresh Renovations offers flexible options when it comes to delivering a bathroom renovation project, catering to the specific needs and preferences of their clients. They understand that different individuals have different priorities, and thus they provide two distinct approaches: working to a budget or working to a brief.

For clients who have a specific budget, Refresh Renovations diligently works within those financial constraints, optimising resources and providing cost-effective solutions while still delivering a high-quality outcome. On the other hand, for clients who have a clear vision or specific requirements for their bathroom renovation, Refresh Renovations works closely with them to understand their brief and brings that vision to life. They collaborate closely throughout the process, ensuring that every detail is executed precisely as per the client's specifications.

Whether it's adhering to a budget or realizing a specific vision, Refresh Renovations is dedicated to providing personalised solutions that result in a stunning and customised bathroom renovation.

Are your bathroom renovation contractors licensed and insured in New Zealand?

Discuss this with your Renovation consultant during your bathroom renovation consultant, it is important to know upfront what you are getting into rather than finding out when it is too late. Refresh Renovations customers have the option to get a payment protection guarantee from Magenta so they can build with confidence.

Can full home renovations increase the value of my home in New Zealand?

They most certainly can! When you choose to work with a home renovation design consultant like those at Refresh Renovations, you are opting for a process that helps save you time and money.

Modern design, new fixtures, functional layouts, and sleek finishes make a massive difference to potential homebuyers. Get in touch with a Renovation Consultant today to talk about adding value to your property.

Will I be able to live in my home during the complete home renovation?

At Refresh, our Renovation Consultants work to make sure your renovation involves minimal interference with your daily life. However, with a full home renovation you can expect a lot more going on in your house that might require you to find another place to stay during the renovation.

Your Renovation Consultant will be transparent about a timeline and will work to get you back into your home as soon as possible. After all, the benefits from a complete home renovation make the process worth it!
