What we build

Services

From a new powder room to a full first-floor addition, our own tradespeople handle the job from frame to finish.

Extensions

Ground-floor additions that open up the back of the house: new living areas, bedrooms and bathrooms.

First-floor additions

Go up instead of out. Extra bedrooms and living space without giving up the backyard.

Renovations

Kitchens, bathrooms and whole-of-house updates that keep the character and fix what isn't working.

Alterations

Moving walls, adding a powder room, reworking a layout. Smaller jobs done properly.

Dingley Village · Renovation and addition

A family home transformed in two stages. First we renovated the inside: kitchen, bathroom, laundry and lounge. Now we're building a two-storey addition alongside.

  • Stage 1, complete. New kitchen with stone island and butler's pantry, bathroom, laundry, and lounge with a built-in fireplace wall
  • Stage 2, in progress. Steel-framed face brick ground level with a new upper floor, and the existing upstairs extended out over the roof
  • Our own trades on both stages, start to finish
