Frequently Asked Questions: Home Extensions

Why should I consider extending my home instead of moving?

Extending your home allows you to gain the space you need without the significant costs and upheaval of buying and selling, stamp duty, and moving fees. It enables you to stay in your preferred neighbourhood, maintain children’s schools, and customise your existing property to perfectly suit your evolving lifestyle and future needs, often increasing its value significantly.

The possibilities are vast and tailored to your property. Common types include ground-floor expansions for new living areas, additional bedrooms, or larger kitchens. We also specialise in second-storey additions, which dramatically increase living space without consuming valuable yard area. We work with you to explore the best structural and design options for your home and vision.

Yes, all home extensions require council approval and relevant building permits. Perfect Fit Builders has extensive experience navigating the approval process. We handle all necessary documentation, architectural plans, and submissions to ensure your extension complies with all local planning and building regulations, providing a smooth and stress-free journey from concept to completion.

The duration of a home extension varies significantly based on its size, complexity, and the level of customisation. While a small ground-floor addition might take 3-4 months, a larger, multi-level extension could take 6-12 months or more. We provide a clear, realistic timeline and project schedule upfront, keeping you informed every step of the way.

While any significant renovation involves some disruption, Perfect Fit Builders employs meticulous planning and efficient project management to minimise inconvenience. We aim to isolate the construction zone where possible and maintain a clean, safe site. We’ll discuss the project stages and potential impacts with you in detail, working to ensure your family’s comfort throughout the extension process.
