We recently had our lounge diner, kitchen, utility room and bathroom fully renovated by Ben and his team, and we honestly couldn't be happier.

Common questions
How much does an addition to a heritage home cost?
It depends on size, structure, approvals, access and finish. We inspect the home and quote the scope.
Do I need council or heritage approval?
Often, yes, especially for visible changes or heritage-listed homes. We help with this process.
Can I stay in the home during the work?
Sometimes. It depends on the size of the change, services and safety. We explain this before work starts.
How long does it take?
Small alterations may take weeks. Larger additions can take longer because of approvals and structure. Your quote includes a timeline.
Can you match the existing home?
Yes. We plan the new work so it suits the age, shape and detail of the old home.
Do you handle plans and trades?
Yes. We help coordinate plans, approvals, trades and the build.
