Melbourne Home Renovation FAQs

How does your process work?2025-10-14T07:39:01+00:00

Three clear stages: Initial site meetinglayout, finishes & budget discussion(with an estimate) → contract to proceedwith a set timeline. You’ll know key milestones, who’s on site, and when selections are due.

Do you provide design support and drafting?2025-10-14T07:40:57+00:00

Yes. We offer design and draftingto optimise layout, storage and natural light, then document everything for quoting and permits. This design-build approach keeps scope, budget and timing aligned.

Which areas do you service?2025-10-14T07:41:19+00:00

Inner Melbourne, Bayside and the South-East through to Frankston, Dandenong, Cranbourneand the Mornington Peninsula(including Sorrentoand Portsea).

How long does a typical renovation take?2025-10-14T07:41:34+00:00

Timeframes depend on scope and approvals, but as a guide:

  • Bathroom renovation: ~3–5 weeks once on site
  • Kitchen renovation: ~4–6 weeks depending on cabinetry/stone lead times
  • House extension / whole-home update: several months, staged to minimise disruption

You’ll receive a detailed build program before work starts.

How much does a renovation cost?2025-10-14T07:41:51+00:00

Costs vary with size, structure, level of finish and access. We provide an itemised estimateafter the site meeting and design discussion, with upgrade options for appliances, joinery and fixtures. You’ll see inclusions and allowances up front.

Do I need planning or just a building permit?2025-10-14T07:42:03+00:00

Some projects need planning approval(zoning/overlays or changes to the building envelope). All structural work needs a building permit. We identify requirements early, prepare drawings and lodge applications on your behalf.

Can I live at home during the renovation?2025-10-14T07:42:16+00:00

Often yes for bathroomor kitchenprojects (with temporary facilities arranged). For major extensionsor full internal reworks, we’ll advise if a short relocation is safer and more efficient.

What’s included in your quotes?2025-10-14T07:42:29+00:00

Clear scope, specifications, provisional sums where relevant, site setup, protection of existing finishes, rubbish removal, and final clean. You’ll also get a selection schedule for tiles, fittings, benchtops and appliances.

Do you use licensed trades?2025-10-14T07:42:44+00:00

Yes registered builders, licensed plumbers/electricians, qualified waterproofers and certified installers for windows, stone and joinery. Compliance certificates are provided at handover.

How do you ensure quality waterproofing and ventilation?2025-10-14T07:42:59+00:00

Bathrooms are waterproofed to current standards with tested membranes. Kitchens and laundries include proper ventilationdesign, and we specify quiet, effective rangehoods and extraction where needed.

Can you improve energy efficiency and comfort?2025-10-14T07:43:15+00:00

Absolutely. We can add insulation, upgrade windows to double glazing, improve airtightness, and recommend heat-pump hot water, induction cookingand LED lightingto reduce bills while lifting comfort.

Do you work with heritage or coastal homes?2025-10-14T07:43:28+00:00

Yes. We renovate heritage homeswith sympathetic detailing and manage overlay requirements. For coastal and peninsula projects, we specify materials suited to sea-air conditions.

How are changes handled once we start?2025-10-14T07:43:44+00:00

Variations are documented and priced before approval. We keep communication clear so the budget and timeline stay on track.

What warranties and insurances do you provide?2025-10-14T07:43:57+00:00

You’ll receive statutory warranties, product warranties and compliance certificates. We carry appropriate construction insurances and maintain tidy, safe sites.

What is the most expensive part of a house extension?2025-03-27T23:34:23+00:00

The most expensive part of a house extension is typically the structural work, including foundations, roofing, and load-bearing walls. If major excavation or underpinning is required, costs can escalate quickly. Adding a second storey is particularly costly due to the extra engineering requirements and reinforcement needed to support the additional weight.

Other costly elements include:

  • Plumbing and Electrical Work: If you’re adding bathrooms or kitchens, rerouting plumbing and wiring can be expensive.

  • Custom Materials and Finishes: High-end materials, custom joinery, and luxury finishes drive up costs.

  • Windows and Doors: Large glass panels, bi-fold doors, and skylights enhance aesthetics but can add substantial expenses.

Keeping costs under control involves careful planning, selecting cost-effective materials, and working with experienced professionals to avoid costly errors.
