Testimonials

Whilst enduring a family break up of a large property portfolio, Ian was introduced to me as a person who could devise an acceptable outcome for all parties to an ongoing legal action. His involvement not only settled the Supreme Court matter through Court appointed Mediation, but led to the strategic establishment of my successful property investment group of companies.

From MasterCraft Flooring

Ian has been a monumental help to both myself and my business through his knowledge, guidance and assistance. I was able to successfully recover a debt owing from a defaulting builder. My regret is that I wasn’t able to utilize Ian and his services earlier. I couldn’t recommend his services any higher. Zac. Owner.

From Aeon Building and Carpentry

My wife and I engaged Ian’s services in a property settlement matter where the developer was refusing to settle due to issues with the builder. Ian expedited the background research and recommended and worked with a lawyer who assisted in us understanding our rights. We achieved settlement and are now happily in possession of our property due to Ian’s skill, care and experience. Bob & Lois

From Bob & Lois Salamonsen

We are a major glass and aluminium facade company in Victoria and recently needed help with two major projects. We engaged Ian’s services through his consultancy company to undertake the detailing of the facade for the Knox Private Hospital extension. The work involved amendment of the facade design from panel to curtainwall construction and detailing of associated elements such as sunblades and screens. Ian then went on to provide the window and aluminium extrusion detail for the 60 storey Empire Apartment tower in the CBD. Chris. Design Manager

From Window Co.

Ian and I have worked alongside each other as consultants over the past 20 years or so providing solutions to problems. I am a design engineer specialising in multi-storey facades and light-weight design. Ian has used my services on various projects including the design conversion and installation of the Eastlink Operation Centre, Ringwood facade, the Knox Private Hospital extension, Yarra’s Edge Tower 4, Wills Court Penthouse, and many others. Each of these major projects have had unique problems to which Ian has applied his lateral thinking and tenancy resulting in successful client outcomes. We are pleased to confirm that his work is detailed and accurate and that he is a solutions seeker unconstrained by rigid thinking. David, PENZ, M. Eng.
