Heritage Now provided a heritage assessment to comply with our Council DA requirements for a garage extension to our Heritage Listed house. We chose Heritage Now because they were able to do the report in the short timeframe we needed and the cost was competitive. As a result, we have been able to submit our DA in a timely manner and as a side benefit we learned some interesting things about the history of our property. We would recommend Heritage Now to anyone else who needs a Heritage report for a DA, service was very prompt and professional.
