You must obtain a building permit issued by the registered building surveyor to add ground floor or two-storey home extensions to your property. In some cases, such as if you’re adding floor overlays, heritage overlays or strata tiles to your home, the local council will need to be advised. This is known as planning permission.

While our clients usually live in their homes while we work on their extension projects, there are certain times when temporary accommodation will need to be sourced. For instance, if we cannot grant you safe access to your kitchen, bedroom or bathroom. However, our team will conduct careful planning to ensure we avoid disrupting your daily routine as best as we can.

Have you used contractors in the past that you know and trust? If so, let us know. We love collaborating with various building specialists across Melbourne. To ensure they’re the right person for your extension job, we’ll require them to meet our safety standards and supply us with insurance and OH&S credentials. We’ll also ensure they meet our project deadlines.

Yes. You can add home extensions to your Sandringham heritage home. However, this will require extensive planning from a building expert. The team at Supa Group can manage this for you and obtain all relevant council approvals. When working on heritage homes, we aim to keep the property’s structural integrity intact while innovating its floor plan with high-quality home extensions.
