Start your project with clarity and confidence. Book a free 15-minute conversation with Paul Wainwright, an experienced building consultant on the Mornington Peninsula, to talk through where you’re up to and what your options might be.

This is a friendly, no-pressure chat designed to help you understand your next steps before you commit to anything further. If a paid service would be useful, Paul will let you know — and if it wouldn’t, he’ll tell you that too.

Get in-depth guidance and walk away with a tailored project plan

Get in-depth, practical guidance with a phone or Zoom consultation of up to two hours with Paul. This session is ideal if you want to explore your project in detail and make informed decisions before moving forward.

Paul will work through your site, your goals, your constraints and your questions — drawing on more than 35 years of building experience to help you weigh up your options without an agenda.

You’ll leave the session with your own tailored project plan: a working document that captures your property details, goals and budget, site considerations, the approvals you’ll need, your build roadmap and key contacts. It’s yours to take to architects, designers, builders and council — a clear, considered foundation for everything that follows.

$295.00
Have Paul visit your site as well as develop your project plan

For practical, location-specific guidance, book a consultation with site visit. Paul will come to your property to assess how your land, orientation, access and surroundings will shape what’s possible — the kind of insight that’s hard to gain from photos and plans alone.

On site, Paul will walk the block with you, talk through the opportunities and constraints, and answer the questions that have been keeping you stuck. As an independent advisor, he’s there to help you see your project clearly, not to sell you a build.

After the visit, you’ll receive your tailored project plan — a working document covering your site considerations, approvals pathway, build roadmap and key contacts, informed by what Paul has seen on the ground. A 50 km travel radius applies.

$995.00
Relax as Paul guides you through the planning process from beginning to end

Navigate the planning and permit process with confidence. With more than 35 years in the industry and decades of working with councils across Melbourne and the Mornington Peninsula, Paul understands the complexities of overlays, zoning, planning permits and building permits — and how to keep a project moving when things get tangled.

This service is for people who want a knowledgeable independent advisor in their corner: someone to help interpret council requirements, identify potential obstacles early, and guide you through the approvals you’ll need for your specific site.

Your tailored project plan is part of this service — a working document that maps your approvals pathway alongside the rest of your project, so nothing slips between the cracks.
