Domain Improvements is a boutique building company led by Registered Building Practitioner Paul Villani and a dedicated team of industry professionals who are backed up by reliable ‘Old School” trade personnel. From transformative renovations to new builds, Domain Improvements are here to help you create the home you’ve always dreamed of. No compromise or short cuts, just quality workmanship and service, partnering with you every step of the way. We want building, developing, or renovating to be a great experience for our clients as we take pride in what we create. Our clients’ positive personal experiences during the entire building process matters to us.

We forge close relationships between builder and client which have ensured valued satisfaction and a high proportion of loyal repeat business. At Domain Improvements, we are driven by building excellence and high-quality outcomes whilst simultaneously seeking open relationships with our clients and honest feedback. It all starts with being accountable. If we say we will do something, then we will do it. We will always be upfront, communicating and totally committed to you, ensuring we are by your side during the build and always here for you after completion. We understand the journey of concept-to-completion and are equipped to ensure we deliver on time and within budget.

Paul is still just as passionate about building quality as the first day he started, over 30 years ago. Recognised for working on several landmark buildings in Melbourne over the years, Paul has found his niche in building and renovating particularly challenging projects, including homes on sloping blocks, historical buildings, and contemporary architectural projects. 

Although a director by title, his passion for building often finds him escaping the office confines to be on site with either a tool in his hand, liaising with trades or meeting clients to take the time to put their minds at ease with any questions or concerns. 

Pauls valuable knowledge of the building industry is second to none and is often sought out by renowned leading architects to build their designs for clients. His ability to think things through calmly and problem solve has also seen him take over failed projects and breathe new life into them, much to the relief of distressed owners. Paul is also an experienced and Registered Commercial Builder, and this background sees Domain Improvements having that extra “edge” on some of the more complex modern-day architectural projects we undertake. Paul is committed to implementing the values and work ethics he grew up with. 

Integrity is high on his list of non-negotiables in life, and to him quality is not just about what you can see and touch, the materials you use and how you build it, it’s also about all the little things, the things you can't see and the honest professional friendly advice.
