Customer Reviews
Posted on S HTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a local custom builder, we have engaged Trent & the TDM Design team to complete multiple projects. Trent's attention to detail in his design work and general care for his clients is exactly what we love about TDM. If you are a homeowner requiring Drafting services with an Architectural flair for renovation, extension or a new build then TDM is the one.Posted on Jane McDougallTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We couldn't be happier with Trent from TDM Design. From our first meeting, he truly listened and understood not just what we wanted, but how we live and what matters to us. He took our ideas and added real value to them, helping us extend our heritage home in a way that honours its 100-year history while creating the space we need for modern life. The first set of plans he provided us were spot on!! What also impressed us was Trent's expertise in navigating the council approval process. We purchased the property at the end of September, and thanks to his skilful management of both council requirements and neighbour consultations, we had our green light by the end of December. That timeline seemed impossible at the start, but Trent made it happen. Trent project-managed all of the additional services needed to make the project happen. Surveyors, Engineers, and Energy Consultants, all of the same calibre and high standard. Beyond his technical skills, Trent is simply a wonderful person and a joy to work with. He partnered seamlessly with our builder (who recommended Trent), ensuring everyone's voice was heard and ensuring the smooth transition from design to construction. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Trent and would recommend TDM Design without hesitation.Posted on Simon WardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Trent provided excellent service throughout the Town Planning and Working Drawings stages for our rennovation. He is highly knowledgeable, friendly, and detail-oriented in his approach, and guided us confidently through each step of the process.

Getting Trent involved in our renovation was hands down the best decision we made. We were completely stuck on how to rework our layout, but Trent came in and quickly figured out the perfect design solution. He took all our ideas on board and transformed them into a plan that not only made sense but maximised the space in ways we hadn’t even considered. His expertise, creativity, and eye for detail made the whole process smooth and exciting. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome, highly recommend Trent to anyone planning a renovation!Posted on Nicole O'HanlonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

He took the time to understand exactly what we wanted, offered helpful suggestions, and delivered quality plans that exceeded our expectations. Trent’s knowledge of local building codes and council regulations was a huge asset, and it really helped streamline the process. We appreciated how responsive and timely Trent was throughout the entire project. We would certainly recommend Trent from TDM Design to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled draftsman. We’ll definitely be using them again!Posted on Tristan CincottaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Trent is a pleasure to work with and the only one I’ll work with.
