Specialist Inner Eastern Suburbs (Melbourne) Extension and Renovation Builder Reveals How To…

Seamlessly Transform Your House Into The Home You’ve Always Wanted

… With Honest, Fixed Pricing, Unmatched Workmanship And On Time Delivery (Guaranteed)

Finding The Right Builder To Extend And Renovate Your Home Can Be Challenging Because…

Many builders don’t know how to match your extension to your existing home -- especially when it comes to the external roofline and cladding (like brickwork), and internal transitional elements (like tiles, architraves and doorways). The result is an extension that looks awkward and out of place.

Other builders don’t know how to optimise the design for maximum useable space – so you end up needlessly overspending for a renovation that doesn’t suit your lifestyle needs or aesthetic preferences. The result is an expensive rabbit warren of unusable hallways and corners.

And most builders struggle to deliver the quality workmanship you want (and are paying for) -- on time and on budget -- leaving you living in limbo for months, with thousands in unexpected expenses.

How We Seamlessly Transform Your Home, On Budget And Schedule -- Guaranteed

We’ve been helping homeowners transform their homes for over 20 years. Unlike most builders who are generalists (mainly building new homes), we specialise in extensions and renovations that transform old homes into spacious, comfortable modern homes.

While other renovation builders merely add an extension, we take great lengths to seamless blend your extension, so it honours the original character of your home and looks like it’s always belonged. This includes matching bricks, cladding, tiles and architraves (even sourcing second hand). And paying particular attention to ensure the roofline is fully integrated.

And unlike most renovation builders who merely refresh your current space (e.g. updating cupboards and benchtops etc.), we take a holistic approach by assessing your entire home and offering suggestions to optimise the floorplan to meet your ultimate vision.
