Como is one of those suburbs that quietly punches above its weight. Good blocks, river access, solid older homes and a location that keeps drawing buyers back. If you've been in your Como property for a while and it's starting to feel like it's not keeping up with the rest of the suburb, or you've recently bought something with potential and want to realise it, Refresh Renovations can help.

We work with homeowners across Como and the broader South East Perth corridor, managing renovations from first concept through to finished result.

Renovating in Como

The housing stock in Como is a mix of post-war builds, 70s and 80s brick homes, and a growing number of properties that have already had at least one renovation cycle. A lot of them have genuinely good bones but interiors and exteriors that haven't been updated in decades.

The suburb's proximity to the river, to Curtin and to the city makes it a strong market, and well-renovated homes here sell well. Whether you're renovating to stay and enjoy the result, or with one eye on the eventual sale, the investment tends to make sense in Como.

What We Do

We handle a wide range of renovation work across Como properties, including kitchen renovations, bathroom renovations, full home renovations, house extensions and bedroom additions, open plan living conversions, outdoor entertaining areas and alfresco additions, home office conversions, and recladding and exterior upgrades.

If you're not sure exactly what your home needs, that's fine too. We can come out, walk through the property with you and give you an honest read on what would make the most difference.

The Refresh Approach

Refresh Renovations isn't a volume builder chasing the next job. Every project gets a dedicated project manager who is across the details from the start, coordinates the trades, handles any council requirements and keeps you informed throughout. You don't end up as the go-between trying to chase down a tiler or a plasterer yourself.

We give you a fixed quote before any work starts, so you know what you're committing to. If scope changes during the job, we discuss it with you before it affects the price.

Local Knowledge Matters

Knowing Como's block sizes, setback requirements, heritage overlays where they apply, and the way the City of South Perth handles approvals makes the process smoother. We've worked on homes throughout this area and we're not learning on your job.
