What to consider when extending your home

The house extension process reaps many rewards, including expanding your living space and increasing your home’s value. But before you start planning out your house extension design, it’s important to consider the following:

Current layout

Do you have room on your property for an extension? If so, what will be the best place to extend? This could be a bedroom, kitchen, living room, or even garage extension. If you’re short on square metres, you might want to consider building vertically.

Budget

House extensions vary in price, depending on the size and scope of your project. It’s important to outline a budget first, and then explore the design options to compliment your home and your wallet. Cost-effective extensions are possible with the right amount of planning in place!

Design

Think about the design and style that would best complement the rest of your home. There are also opportunities to blend contemporary and traditional design in a tasteful manner.

Do I need council approval to extend my house?

Your home extension will require council permission, which Refresh® Hawke's Bay can take care of for you. Refresh® extension builders work closely with local councils and will work quickly to submit applications and get them approved. They will ensure all work meets local standards and that the final result is of the highest quality.

Tips for a cost-effective home extension renovation

With proper planning and budget allocation, it is possible to extend your Hawke's Bay home without breaking the bank! Discover our cost saving tips:

Start with a defined budget

Your Hawke's Bay Renovation Consultant will ask for your budget parameters from the outset. This way, they can help you best allocate your funds towards meaningful, long-lasting changes.

Consider materials

The materials you choose have a massive effect on your project’s bottom line. Today, there are many budget-friendly options to replace what would be an expensive material. Some examples of affordable materials include reclaimed timber, stone cladding, fresh concrete, and industrial steel.

Consider your build site

Groundwork is a hidden yet substantial cost for your project. Choose to extend in an area that’s free from underground plumbing or electrical wiring.  

On top of this, your Renovation Consultant will be able to inform you of other ways to save on your home additions in Hawke's Bay and other places in Hawke's Bay.
