Extensions

Thinking about adding an extension to your home is often about more than just creating extra space, it is about improving how you live day to day. A well planned extension can give you room to grow, improve natural light and flow, and add long term value without the upheaval of moving. 

Before building, it is important to consider how the new space will actually be used, how it will connect to the existing home so it feels seamless rather than like an add on, and how orientation, light and access to outdoor areas can be maximised. Understanding what is structurally possible, what planning and permit requirements apply, and how the build will be staged around an occupied home can make a big difference to the overall experience.

Budgeting realistically, including allowances for approvals and unforeseen site conditions, helps avoid compromises later. Most importantly, working with a builder experienced in extensions ensures the process is well managed, the design intent is respected, and the end result feels like it has always belonged.
