This 100-year-old beach cottage, built on the Collaroy Plateau hillside, had its challenges. However, with sweeping views of Collaroy and Narrabeen on offer, it was undeniably a very rewarding project to take on.

We added an extra level to the existing home, with an expansive open living area, complete with a raked ceiling and opening out onto a large outdoor covered living area with 180-degree views of the Northern Beaches.

We totally renovated the existing two floors with three new bathrooms, 140-millimetre wide Spotted Gum hardwood flooring, and a new open plan kitchen.

We commissioned Superior Constructions to renovate our 1928 Beach house in Collaroy. It was a significant job where we added a floor, change every other room in the house, put on two decks and replaced another and took 30 tonnes of dirt from under the house to fix drainage problems. 

Jamie and his team were a pleasure to work with. They provided a high quality job and were on time and on budget. If we didn’t like something they happily change it, as their level of focus on the customer is excellent. When problems arose, and they will with such an old house, we were able to calmly work through the issues and come to a mutual resolution.

Jamie has a great team working with him from excellent carpenters such as Matt and Richard, to plumbers, electricians, plasterers and painters. The entire team was focused on a quality job that my wife and I were satisfied with.

My wife and I are delighted with the finished product.

I would not hesitate to recommend Jamie and his team to anyone wanting to build a house or do a renovation.
