We’re ensuring that the Australian Government’s social distancing criteria is met at all times on our job sites. We’re following both the Australian Government guidelines as well as industry guidelines from the HIA.

Here’s what we’re doing

• Only essential Hille’s employees and contractors are allowed on site. Anyone with cold or flu symptoms will not be allowed on site.

• Want to keep your distance? We offer the option to have virtual planning meetings.

• Any building work in enclosed/internal spaces adhering to 1 person per 4 sqm rule.

• Following the 1.5m social distancing rule at all times – no exceptions.

• Ensuring all Hille’s employees practice excellent hygiene with on-site hand sanitation stations.

• Regularly cleaning and disinfecting areas in our work zones.

• Working closely with our customers to ensure we’re not putting them at risk.
We always want to make sure our customers are as comfortable as possible, so if you wish to remain in your home during your renovation, we’ll work with you to make that happen. It’s important that you do let us know if anyone in your home is feeling unwell, or may have been recently exposed to COVID-19.
Getting Started

We’ll have a chat to you to better understand your project and you and your family’s needs.

Your Design Consultation

Your Hille’s designer will then compare how different design implementations will meet your needs and how they will work in your home. If you wish to limit your physical contact with us, we can arrange virtual planning meetings. Plus, the software our designers use to bring your dream home plans to life has excellent online sharing features.

Let’s Design Your Dream Home

You and your designer will work closely with you every step of the way. At Hille’s, we believe that truly listening to your needs is what allows us to guarantee that the final design will deliver the functionality you want, produce a visually exciting result, enhance flow through your home, and ensure growth in the resale value of your home.

Our Designers Are Experts

They understand modern materials, current trends, styles, fittings and appliances. And, they’re here to help you.

Ready To Start

Now that the design is finalised, it’s time to start the building process. You will now have a very clear picture of how your home will look, what materials will be used and how much it will cost. No surprises and no hidden costs. Your preliminary agreement and quote will outline all the included and excluded costs. Your project will be the focus of our building team and you will be assigned a Site Supervisor who will oversee your project through to completion. The Site Supervisor will serve as your point of contact through the build and have regular communication with you and your designer.

Planning & Approvals

Hille’s will do all the groundwork required to get your project started as quickly as possible. We’ll seek council approvals and building permits on your behalf and will be ready to get started once the “all clear” is given. For non-town planning jobs and subject to council approvals, the average lead time is 4 - 5 months.

Let’s Build

Skilled planning is undertaken by your Site Supervisor to ensure that your project keeps moving toward completion on time. Priority will be given to essential wet areas deemed “out of action” by the works.
