Extensions & Renovations
You love your house — just not all of it. Maybe the kitchen doesn’t work, the kids need more room, or you want to actually enjoy your backyard. Extensions are trickier than new homes because you’re working with what’s already there — existing walls, existing roof, and sometimes a family living in it during construction. We specialise in making additions feel like they were always part of the original home.

Why it matters
Seamless integration
Our extensions look and feel like they were always part of the original home. No awkward joints or mismatched finishes.
Structural confidence
We coordinate closely with structural engineers to ensure the existing structure can support the addition safely.
Cost clarity
Detailed documentation means accurate builder pricing and fewer variations during construction.
Our approach
How we deliver extensions & renovations — step by step.
Assess the existing home
We document what is there — structure, services, condition — so we design with full knowledge of the constraints.
Identify the opportunity
Where can the home grow? Up, out, or both? We explore options that work with the existing structure.
Design for integration
The addition must feel intentional. We match materials, proportions, and rooflines to create a seamless result.
Minimise disruption
Staging, temporary access, and construction sequencing are considered in the design to reduce impact on your daily life.

Common questions
Answers to the things clients ask most about extensions & renovations.
Can I add a second storey to my single-storey home?
Often yes, but it depends on the existing structure and planning rules. We assess this during the feasibility stage.
Do I need to move out during renovation?
Not always. We can stage construction to allow you to live in part of the home, depending on the scope.
Will the extension match the existing home?
That is our speciality. We carefully select materials, proportions, and detailing to create a seamless result.
