"I was visited by council for an inspection on my deck, and I didn't have a permit. The deck also didn't conform to building regulations. I contacted Ray at AAR Design and he was more than happy to help. He organized an inspection of my deck to draw up plans on how it should be built and what needed replacing. He also directed me to a reputable builder to complete the works. Ray took the worry out of my situation. A big Thank You.

"I was referred to AAR Design and Drafting from another happy customer. From my first contact with Ray, I found Ray to be easy to deal with, thorough, patient and very informative whilst guiding me through the different options that were available to me with regards to my project. Once I was completely satisfied with the final drawings, Ray also organized the appropriate engineering drawings and council permits which saved me a lot of time and inconvenience. I have recommended and continue to highly recommend AAR Design and Drafting to any one who requires drafting services."

"My wife and I would like to send out a great thank you. You made our re-development a breeze with simple to understand architectural drawings which were greatly detailed and easy to obtain a permit for. Your experience and insight allowed us to take an idea, to a practical reality, considering all aspects and pitfalls which could happen. Amazing work Ray, we really appreciate all that you have done."

" My experience with Mr. Raymond Abela of AAR design and drafting, so far is excellent!!! I have received the best expected treatment whenever I needed to get the design work done for my projects. The best things while availing AAR services for my projects is Ray’s in depth knowledge, easily approachable attitude, his friendly nature and most importantly his highly professional advice. Ray has high attention to detail when it comes to planning and designing the dwellings

In my over four years of dealing with this company where Ray has looked after my many projects, I could not have expected more. Their competent set of skills and experiences were exactly what I needed.

Ray, always ensure that every box is ticked before presenting me with the options and putting the applications with the council. His awesome team made sure that I found the perfect solution for my designs and permits.

I wish Ray & AAR Design and drafting to continue with their high standard of work in future. I would, without any doubts recommend Ray and his company to everyone for their projects.

"It is my pleasure to work with highly professional, courteous, conversant and most important great human being name RAYMOND ABELA. He has helped us out through our first project at Laverton. Although it was our learning project and we were not that experienced but Ray has showed ample amount of patience in each and every communication. He has guided us in every step with his vast knowledge of his field. If somebody wakes me up in middle of night and asks me reference of any good planner / architect, i will not take even single moment to say Ray's name."

" I came across Ray & AAR design online, and after my initial discussions with him I realised that Ray was the best person to handle my project. Being my first development Ray understood that I would need to have things explained to me and he stepped up and gave me that extra attention needed to handle the council process and other requirements. I highly recommend Ray & his work, he is just great to work with!"

Sam V | Werribee | Pool House

" Ray was recommended to me by a builder in Werribee . We designed a pool house with some great ideas given and made the process enjoyable. Nothing seemed to worry Ray with all the changes we made during the process and the service was fantastic.

On that note as an owner builder l asked the council how do you think the permit will go and they said AAR designs are usually on the ball so should be OK. Plans got through without any issues .
