Expert Home Extensions in Hendra

Most home extensions in Hendra require development approval from Brisbane City Council, especially for structural changes, building footprint increases, or second-storey additions. Some minor works may qualify as accepted development not requiring formal approval. We assess your specific project during consultation and manage all necessary council applications, including preparation, lodgement, council liaison, and obtaining building permits and certifications.

Hendra extension costs vary based on size, complexity, and specifications. Basic single-room additions start from $85,000-$100,000. Open-plan kitchen and living extensions range $130,000-$200,000. Second-storey additions typically cost $190,000-$300,000+. Final pricing depends on materials, finishes, structural requirements, and site conditions. We provide detailed, itemised quotes with all costs clearly outlined and fixed pricing for budget certainty.

Yes, most clients remain in their homes during extension construction. We establish dedicated work zones, install dust barriers, maintain site cleanliness, and schedule noisy activities during standard business hours. For extensive renovations or second-storey builds requiring major structural work, brief relocation during critical phases may be recommended. We discuss living arrangements thoroughly during planning to ensure your comfort.

Timeline varies by project size. Simple single-room extensions take 10-14 weeks from approval to completion. Larger extensions require 16-24 weeks. Second-storey additions may take 22-34 weeks. Council approval processes add 6-12 weeks before construction begins. We provide realistic timelines during consultation and maintain regular communication throughout your Hendra extension project, keeping you informed of progress.

We design each extension to suit your specific needs and property style.
