Turnkey flat renovation
across Perth — hand us the keys, walk back in

Turnkey apartment renovation for Perth owners who'd rather not project-manage: design, strata, build, styling and handover in one contract. Interstate and overseas owners welcome — half our turnkey clients never visit site.

01 // The short version

For owners who have a life to get back to

Turnkey means you deal with one company and zero tradies. We run the design, fight the strata paperwork, manage every trade, source every tile, and hand back a flat that's ready for furniture — or for tenants.

It's the version investors and FIFO families ask for most. You get a weekly photo report and two scheduled video walkthroughs; everything else is our problem. The full renovation scope applies — turnkey just wraps the admin and the finish around it.

02 // Scope

What's actually included

The same list goes into your contract, line for line. If it's not here, it gets quoted separately — not invoiced quietly later.

Measured survey, plans, elevations, 3D views and a fixture schedule — see the design scope.

By-law review, submission pack, committee questions answered. We chase approvals so you don't learn what a quorum is.

Included

Everything in the standard reno: strip-out, wet areas, electrics, floors, walls, kitchen, paint.

Included
I.04Procurement

All materials ordered, checked and stored on our side. Delays get managed before they touch your schedule.

05 // Materials & spec

What we put in, and why

Procurement without the retail markup

Everything sourced on trade accounts — typically 15–30% under retail on tapware, tiles, appliances and boards. The savings stay in your budget, not our margin.

Rental-ready spec option

Investors get a hard-wearing variant: commercial-grade hybrid floors, scrubbable paint systems, induction cooktops that outlive tenants' cookware. Same bones, tougher skin.

Remote-proof paperwork

Digital contracts, photo evidence at every covered-up stage, and a warranty pack that lives in your inbox — handy when you're 4,000 km from the switchboard.

06 // Questions

Asked before this job starts

Different scope, different worries — these are the ones clients put to us first.

Every stage closes the same way as if you were here: photo report plus a scheduled video walkthrough at the big milestones. You approve in writing before the next stage starts. We've done full renos for owners in Singapore, London and the Pilbara.

The rate is higher than a bare build because it includes design, procurement and project admin — the parts an owner-manager ends up paying for anyway, in time and mistakes. Against hiring a separate PM, we usually come out even or cheaper.

That's what the design stage kills: every finish is signed off against physical samples and 3D views before orders are placed. Changes after install are client-add variations — priced in writing first, never sprung on the invoice.

Yes — access, keys, tenancy timelines and handover to your agent are standard on investor jobs. We've handed flats straight to leasing agents more than once; the listing photos sometimes beat ours.

Hand it over. Get a flat back.

A video consult takes 30 minutes and costs nothing. We'll tell you honestly whether turnkey makes sense for your situation.
