Budget
A clear and detailed budget is essential to a successful construction project. Renovations are a worthy investment, but can quickly run over budget if not monitored! A clear spending plan will help when dealing with unforeseen expenses.
We recognise that it is OUR responsibility to provide reliable products and services of consistent high quality that comply fully with the relevant specifications and contract documents and which address the needs and expectations of our customers. Thus, we always exercise expert judgement when deciding on details not expressed in the specification or shown on the plans.
Land and Lighting
Land plays a cardinal role in the renovation of your home. Its location, size and orientation are all factors that will influence how you can best utilise space and natural lighting.
Additionally, natural lighting and airflow are crucial considerations in renovating a house. Considering the suns path in various seasons will help determine how you should plan your renovation and its layout for optimal light and airflow. Maximising natural light and airflow is not only eco-friendly but budget friendly too, helping to reduce electricity and heating costs!
We are experts when it comes to determining the best for you and your home. We are able to fully customise your design so your space is both beautiful and functional.
Layout and Design
As trusted custom renovation builders, we’ve helped many homeowners with home projects. Your home is a place you spend most of your time. A successfully planned layout will make your home experience all the better!
One key consideration when re-designing the layout of your home is your lifestyle. This design should incorporate and enhance all the important aspects of your home life. Zoning will help determine where specific rooms should be placed.
As leading renovation builders, we assess the layout of your home to make the most of the space you have.
Approvals
A good rule of thumb is that internal renovations often do not need approval unless it involves significant structural changes. Most external renovations or building does need approval. Oftentimes even small renovation projects such as decking or fencing may need approval.
There are significant differences amongst councils regarding the construction and renovation of decks, fences, pergolas etc. and it is recommended to confirm these before construction is begun.
There are also various restrictions regarding historical buildings, and most renovations, even painting, needs approval.
Getting building approval involves plans and details that show how the renovation and extension will be built, the technical details surrounding the construction materials that will be used and what Building Code of Australia (BCA) will be met.
