Report
I think Glen and his team are exceptional building designers. If you are serious about getting a good design with local experience and is easy to work with then speak to Glen Place at Place Designs. I have worked with Glen for a number of years in my capacity as a structural engineer. Glen's drawings are easy to read and easy to understand. I think Glen is one of the best designers in Mackay area.
