Services
We offer a range of building services to suit all residential building projects. From a simple deck or pergola to renovation or even a new home we can help you put your idea into reality.
Ideas and Concept Advice
We can meet with you to discuss your needs and wants, provide advice on different types of construction and contracts you can enter into. We have a range of drafts people and designers who we can recommend to get your ideas off the ground and into Council if it is required. It is great to have a Builder involved at this stage to oversee draft plans before Council submission to gauge costs and construction possibilities. Make an enquiry to discuss your needs today.
Extension
An extension or rear addition adds a little extra space and is usually combined with a renovation to the existing dwelling. This type of construction helps to contain costs whilst still providing the extra space required for your home business or growing family.
Renovation
A renovation, changes an existing dwelling without knocking down external walls. This type of construction usually occurs because the owners want to change the flow of their home or update it without increasing floor area. Often a renovation can involve changing internal walls, windows, doors, floors, wardrobes, bathrooms or kitchen.
New Home
While Brickwood Building prides itself as renovation and addition specialists, we also provide a Custom New Home building service. When renovating your old house is either too costly or does not allow changes that you require, a new home might be just for you! If you love the block but hate the house start from scratch, you will not be disappointed with the options you will have which are not available to the renovator.
1st floor addition
The 1st floor addition is similar to the rear addition only on a grander scale. As the name suggests an additional storey is added to the house. Often it incorporates a change in street presence to the house and offers much more space without taking up valuable backyard. A 1st floor addition offers the potential for additional bedrooms and living area making it perfect for the growing or extended family.
