Darren James Interiors

Outstanding design, service, construction and finishes. We were delighted with our renovation and found the experience smooth, professional and attentive from start to finish. Highly recommend Darren James Interiors!

Out experience with Darren James and the team has been as close to faultless as you could expect with a large scale renovation with a shot time frame. We would 100% recommend the team to anyone with no hesitations, and hopefully the below will help others make a decision and share a similar experience.From our first site meeting with Darren to evaluate how much our project may cost, we were treated with honestly and integrity. We didn’t have a large budget like it appeared some of their other clients did have, and despite our initial trepidation that we may not be able to afford to engage their services, we believed in the value of design. Darren assure us that they could help us work within a budget, but we were still worried it might be out of our reach.After a LOT of research and souls searching, we decided we wanted to invest in someone to help us bring what we wanted for our home to life through the design. It was a scary though as we knew what we liked but don’t know how to get there. That’s where the Darren James team came in and boy oh boy did they deliver!From day one when Darren came to our house for an initial consultation, it was evident that Daz and the team saw something in our space that we couldn’t. From there, the whole design process saw out humble little 80s brick home turn from cosy but cramped little living areas to the lost amazing open living/kitchen/dinning area and bathrooms you could imagine. All this happens with constant consultation and considerations to keep within the budget never altered the overall impact or design. This was SO important to us and it was amazing what we could get done within our budget.The attention to detail, use of space and overall feel of the spaces in our home make it feel like a new hound bow, and we still just stand in the spaces and smile for no other reason than we are so happy with our home and how it makes us feel. It happens all the time and it’s the best!!!!There is a large team that helped make our dream home become a reality. From the designers, admin team, site supervisors to the tradies and everyone in between, we have always been treated like we are family. The quality of the work is faultless and the guys delivered us a home that we could not be happier or more comfortable in. It is honestly like loving in a Home Beautiful magazine everyday.....A shot time after we got the keys back, we had our first child and there were a few little things the guys needed to fix up with the house. Our baby arrived 3 weeks early ( I mentioned the short time frame earlier, this was the reason for that!!) and the day we mentioned this, the most beautiful bunch of flowers and well wishes arrived from the DJ team. It was a small gesture, but it was just the most beautiful sentiment and one that our family will always remember and cherish. This is the way these guys work and, as a client, it made us feel so appreciate and special!In short, if you want your home to be a beautiful space you will be proud of for years to come we can not recommend Darren James Interiors enough for their amazing work. It has honestly been a pleasure for us from start to finish and we could not be happier with how much everything worked out.

Elissa, Darren, David and the rest of the team were all an absolute pleasure to deal with from the start of the process all the way to completion.They interpreted our ideas and tastes and worked hard to understand what we wanted to achieve and took our new build to where we wanted it to be.I would recommend them over and over again and hopefully will have the chance to work with them even more extensively in the future.

From the beginning of our kitchen project we were very comfortable with Darren, Elissa and team. Our project was not just a new kitchen. We needed to pull walls and a fireplace out, replace ceilings and lay new flooring. DJ’s diverse team were able to oversee the entire project. They presented concepts that we didn’t think possible and were able to turn rough ideas into our dream kitchen and living space.DJ and his team were so professional throughout the build, updated us with weekly build reports and always on hand for any questions.We would sincerely like to thank Darren, Elissa and their team, especially Kari for her vision, Sarah for answering all our crazy questions, Cameron for supervising the build and to all the trades that made it happen! We would not hesitate to recommend!!

DJI are a team of professionals whose work ethics are of the highest standards. Their team will provide you with a diverse range of design knowledge which is then supported by a talented trade base that turns those design ideas into reality. We highly recommend their services.

The entire team at Darren James was incredibly professional and made the renovation process as easy as it could be. They kept to the schedule , communication was exceptional and the outcome was amazing. Would definitely recommend.

Darren and Elissa and all the staff made our Kitchen and Bathroom renovation a dream. Not only were they attentive and understood what we wanted to achieve there aftercare was second to none! You won't get many designers that will continue to look after your project after the job is done. Cannot recommend them more highly!

Amazing new kitchen and bathrooms! We are extremely happy with the way Darren James Interiors has transformed our house. From the design process to the post renovation service, the team made sure all our requirements were considered and now our house is a pleasure to spend time in!

We were delighted with the level of professionalism displayed by Darren and his team during the renovation of our apartment. The end result is a stylish, easy living and entertaining space, perfect for our lifestyle. We were impressed by Elissa’s attention to detail and good taste with the interior. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Darren James Interiors to anyone.

Engaging Darren James Interiors for our house renovation was the best decision we made. We are delighted with the outcome - our home is such a pleasure to live in now. Despite the Covid shutdown, our project was completed on time, on budget and the process was transparent and seamless. Just one look at our updated spaces speaks volumes about the quality of their work and experience. We cannot speak highly enough of the whole team involved - creative, talented, professional, trustworthy, attentive, generous are a few words that come to mind. Even our neighbours were complimentary about how the workers conducted themselves on site and the respect they were shown! We highly recommend Darren and his fantastic team. Special thanks to Kari, Elissa, Sarah, Cameron and Alex whose thorough knowledge of design and construction and attention to detail made it all worthwhile. It is no wonder they are an award winning team.
