Trina was always reliable and corresponded with me clearly, and promptly. She has an outstanding knowledge of how the council works and its regulations. I am most grateful to Trina for her diligence in transforming a very difficult situation regarding council compliance for my granny flat into the issuing of a Council Occupation Certificate. Over the course of this work Trina always remained professional, focused, and supportive.

Trina designed the plans for our house renovation project. Working with Trina was an incredibly positive experience from start to finish. From the initial consultation to the final set of plans, Trina demonstrated a very high level of professionalism, creativity, and expertise. Trina took the time to understand our vision for the renovation and translated it into a design that was able to blend functionality and aesthetics seamlessly, ensuring that all spaces were well utilised and where appropriate made environmentally responsible choices in the design.

Throughout the process, communication was seamless. Trina was always accessible, responsive, and patient, addressing our questions and concerns promptly. We have now had the opportunity to turn the plans into reality and are very happy with the design and layout of our house renovation, which was achieved through Trina’s design. We would highly recommend Trina at Nvisage.
