Professional, friendly and found the perfect team…
I was completely daunted before beginning my home renovation, and had no idea where to begin. Thank goodness I found Improva! Blake and his team were so professional and friendly, and selected a great builder and joiner for my project.

Finished on time - almost unheard of in renovation...
The team at Improva helped us design our joinery and helped us through the renovation process. Having never renovated before we really didn’t know where to start, and Improva helped us with all the steps along the way. We were even finished on time (which is almost unheard of in renovation land!). Thanks Improva team! We’re delighted with our new home!
Homeowner

At Improva, we take the time to understand you, your vision and your needs. From designing your dream kitchen to connecting you with the right team, we handle every step of your renovation journey.
We start by understanding your lifestyle, style preferences, and how you communicate best. This helps us match you with suppliers who’ll be the perfect fit for your personality and project.
We take care of designing everything from your dream kitchen to complete floor plans and interiors. Having fewer people to coordinate with makes your renovation smoother and less stressful.
We arrange and review quotes from our trusted network of builders, joiners, and suppliers. Because of our relationships and buying power, we negotiate the best possible deals on your behalf.
We handpick every professional involved in your renovation based on your personality, communication style, project scope, and budget. No mismatched teams or personality clashes.
We translate your vision into the technical specifications that tradespeople need. You don’t need to learn industry jargon or worry about miscommunication – we handle all of that for you.
We schedule meetings to suit you, so you don’t need to take time off work. We understand you’re busy earning the money to invest in your home.
We stay by your side throughout your entire renovation, providing honest, independent advice and lending a helping hand whenever you need us.
Finding the right renovation team can be overwhelming. It often means months spent researching suppliers, collecting quotes, and hoping you’ve accurately assessed their skills. For larger renovations with multiple specialists involved, coordination becomes even more challenging and stressful.

Our brokerage service works just like a mortgage broker – we source and connect you with professionals we personally trust, saving you time and stress, while never charging you a cent.

With Improva, you can renovate with confidence because we go beyond just connections. We carefully match you with Builders, Architects, Interior Designers, Joiners and Stonemasons whose communication style and personality will work well with yours.
Our suppliers recognise the value we bring through marketing, lead generation, client communication, and project oversight. We’re compensated accordingly and only get paid when we successfully connect you with professionals, you’re confident to hire.
When you work with Improva and our recommended suppliers, you gain dedicated support throughout your entire renovation journey. We don’t simply make connections and disappear.
We attend check measure meetings, review production plans, coordinate sign-off meetings and do quality control checks. Once plans are signed off, your suppliers become the main contact, but we’re always available to advise or assist.
We also conduct post-installation site visits to ensure exceptional results and keep our recommended suppliers accountable for any maintenance required.
Transform your home with our comprehensive design
service focused on practical, beautiful spaces that work for your lifestyle.
Whether you need complete CAD Design or Interior Design to specify hard finishes, we create spaces tailored to your needs. Using professional 3D rendering software, we deliver detailed visual representations so you can see the end result before the renovation begins.
We begin by understanding you – your style, needs, and vision for your home, and then we develop comprehensive designs that maximise both functionality and aesthetics.
For clients who have engaged our services and need assistance selecting hard finishes, we offer an Interior Design package. We’ll specify materials and source quotes from preferred suppliers. Combined with our CAD Design service, this ensures both functional and exceptional results.
If your design requires council approval, we’ll connect you with our trusted network of Draftsmen, Building Designers and Architects to ensure a smooth process.
Already have plans from an Architect, Interior designer or Builder? We can work with those too. We’ll manage the tendering process and connect you with the perfect team to bring your vision to life.
Like any product with moving parts, joinery requires annual preventative maintenance to optimise performance, longevity, safety, and product warranties.
Our Joinery Care service provides expert annual servicing of all joinery in your home. Our technicians meticulously realign doors, drawers, and adjust hinges, runners, and hardware to ensure flawless operation during scheduled maintenance visits.
By identifying and addressing potential issues and deterioration before they require costly repairs, we help to keep your joinery investment looking and functioning like new for years.

A renovation can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re trying to envision your space’s potential and create the best possible home for your lifestyle.
Our in-house design service is the perfect starting point if you’re not sure where to begin. We cover everything you need inside your home, focusing on practical space planning and uncovering your property’s hidden potential.
You’ll easily visualise the end result because we design using professional 3D computer software (CAD). We specialise in bespoke kitchens, bathrooms, custom joinery, and floor plan reconfiguration.
Our design fees are charged on a transparent flat fee basis, so you know exactly what to expect.
Absolutely. We’re experienced in working from existing plans and have strong partnerships with Architects, Interior designers and Builders throughout Sydney.
We’ll take your plans and manage the entire tendering process, then connect you with the perfect team to bring your vision to life. This saves you the hassle of coordinating multiple quotes and ensures you get the best value and quality for your project.
We have an extensive network of trusted professionals and our supplier base continues to grow. We’ll make recommendations based on your specific needs and you decide who to engage.
We can connect you with:
Finding the right team is about more than just skills and pricing – personality and communication style matter enormously for a successful renovation.
To match you perfectly, we:
This service is completely free to you – we’re compensated by the suppliers you choose to work with.
We eliminate the time-consuming process of sourcing reliable suppliers, managing multiple quotes, and deciphering what’s actually included in each proposal. Instead of chasing joiners for quotes, managing inconsistent communication, and dealing with timeline delays, you simply deal with us. We’re your one-stop solution with the flexibility to meet when you’re available, not when suppliers dictate.
Kitchen and bathroom companies can only sell you what they have on offer. Improva is different because we’re an independent consultancy team dedicated to finding and connecting you with the perfect team for your specific project. We’re not trying to sell you products – we’re selling expertise and connections to ensure you get exactly what you need from the right supplier.
Our supplier selection is rigorous and thorough. An experienced team member with years expertise conducts initial vetting, including factory and site visits and observing actual joinery installations. Suppliers who pass this assessment then undergo additional vetting by Blake Riley, including comprehensive discussions about their processes and capabilities. Only approved suppliers receive our certificate of approval, ensuring you work with the best in the industry.
Trust is everything in our business. We’ve completed over 1,000 successful projects, with most new clients coming through word-of-mouth referrals – something we’ve earned by consistently delivering exceptional service and value.
Here’s why you can trust our recommendations:
There’s an excellent chance you’ll pay less by working with us. Our role is ensuring you get value for money – no one takes advantage of you on our watch. We source and analyse quotes, negotiate with suppliers, and leverage our relationships to secure better pricing than you could achieve independently. Our suppliers offer competitive pricing because we make their lives easier, provide repeat business, and help them save on marketing costs and time.
Day-to-day project management is handled by your builder or main contractor, as effective renovation management requires someone on-site daily to coordinate trades, manage deliveries and oversee daily tasks.
However, we don’t just connect you and disappear. We stay involved throughout your renovation journey:
Think of us as your renovation advocates – we’re working behind the scenes to ensure everything runs smoothly and you get the results you deserve.
For larger projects that may require daily project management, we can connect you with trusted project managers who specialise in this area.
Quality is non-negotiable. A member of our team conducts comprehensive defect inspections and quality control checks after joinery installation. Any issues requiring attention are immediately coordinated with the supplier for resolution. We don’t let defects slide – your project isn’t complete until it meets our quality standards.
We’re always looking for exceptional suppliers who share our commitment to quality and reliability, so if you’re interested in joining our network of Improva certified suppliers, get in touch. Please note that we maintain strict standards through our comprehensive vetting and onboarding process.
Whether you’re a homeowner planning a renovation or a building industry professional looking for a better way to manage joinery, we’ve put together resources to help. Find out how Improva works and what we can bring to your project or business.
