Paula Milsted
We recently worked with Sam to prepare and submit our Development Application (DA), and we couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Sam is incredibly patient taking the time to explain every step of the process and answer our many questions without hesitation. His efficiency meant that we met all our deadlines without stress, and his deep knowledge of local council requirements and planning regulations was invaluable.
Throughout the entire process, Sam remained highly professional and approachable. He communicated clearly, responded promptly, and ensured every detail was handled with care. Thanks to his expertise, our DA was approved without issue.
We highly recommend Sam to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and professional draftsman. He made what can be a daunting process feel smooth and manageable.

We contacted Sam to assist with a Development Application (DA) for a granny flat within the Georges River Council area. From the initial phone call and site visit, Sam demonstrated strong knowledge, generously offering his time and expertise while showing a clear understanding of council requirements. The quotes he provided for the necessary assessments were both high-quality and cost-effective. Sam has been a pleasure to work with—responsive, solutions-focused, and collaborative throughout the process. We highly recommend Sam and would gladly work with him again on future development projects.

I have been working with Sam on designs and CDC approval for a new studio we are adding in our back yard.
I cannot recommend Sam higher, he goes above and beyond. I am new to trying to get approvals and understanding council requirements and he has helped out so much. Even outside of his "scope" of work he will give advice and help however he can.
Thanks so much Sam, been great working with you!
