Common home extensions problems and solutions in Melbourne 3000

These are the most frequent issues Melbourne 3000 homeowners encounter that require a home extensions, along with whether each is a realistic DIY repair or a job for a licensed professional.

Extension requiring planning and building permits Hire a pro

Home extensions in Australia almost always require both a planning permit and a building permit. Planning permits relate to setbacks, site coverage and height and are issued by the local council; building permits relate to structural compliance and are issued by a registered building surveyor. A licensed builder will manage both permit streams and can advise on what is achievable under your council's local planning scheme.

Matching the extension to the existing home style Hire a pro

Extensions that don't match the existing home in terms of roofline, external materials and window proportions can reduce property value and require specific design solutions. A building designer or architect can draw up plans that complement the existing structure. Heritage overlay properties have additional requirements around maintaining the character of the original façade visible from the street.

Cost blowouts from unforeseen structural issues Hire a pro

Demolishing an external wall to create an open-plan extension sometimes reveals unexpected issues — asbestos sheeting, undersized footings, termite damage or load-bearing walls not identified in the original plans. A thorough pre-contract inspection by a licensed builder, combined with a contingency budget of 10–15%, is standard practice for extension projects. Get a fixed-price contract where the scope of work is clearly defined.
