A design and build partnership that works
Add-Style was established by Tim Hookins & Bill Handley who had the foresight to see the benefits of combining home design and construction into one
streamlined process.

The Founders
Tim Hookins, a registered architect for over 40 years and licensed Builder Bill Handley joined forces in 1985 to bring about a streamlined and cost-efficient approach to building quality home additions. Although just the two of them in the early days, their success enabled the business to expand into the team of passionate designers and builders it is today.
Sadly, Bill passed away in June 2024 leaving behind a legacy that continues to guide our work. It was the highest honour for all of us here in the company to work alongside him. His wife Donna (Owner and Director) and children Jay, Kai and Tara are fully involved with the business and plan to carry on his legacy long into the future, as he would have loved.
For us, Add-Style is more than a nine to five job. It’s a family-owned and operated business built over decades. With over 1000 First Floor Additions and renovations completed and counting, we are extremely proud to be a part of it.

A Family Business
Add-Style is a business that has grown with its family.
When Bill Handley and Tim Hookins started working together in 1985 they based their business out of a home study that doubled as sleeping quarters for Bill’s first-born baby, Jay.
Little did they think that one day this baby would grow up to join the business, completing his apprenticeship with Add-Style and taking on a vital management role.

Many of the others involved with Add-Style have been with us for many years. Our designers have completed their university studies while working for our company.
For us Add-Style is more than a nine to five job. It’s a family-owned and operated business built over decades that we are extremely proud to be a part of.
