Renovations
New work on the house you already have. Openings, doors and trims reworked to suit the house, and decks, outdoor rooms and patio roofs tied into the existing eaves so they look like they were always there. A renovation is underway in Cessnock.
What's included
- Doors, jambs and architraves replaced or reworked
- Openings changed with the sign-off the job needs
- Decks and outdoor rooms on existing homes
- Patio roofs tied into the existing eaves and gutters

How the job runs
What to expect, start to finish.
Look at the house
Ewan comes out and looks at what is there: the frame, the levels and where the new work has to meet the old.
On the tools
New work is cut and fitted to the existing house, so openings sit square and roof lines run true.
Walk-through
You walk the work with Ewan before the job is called done.
Common questions
Do I need approval for a renovation?
It depends on the work. Structural changes, like taking out a load-bearing wall, need an engineer and often a certifier or council. Decks and patio covers depend on size, height and how close they sit to a boundary. Ewan will tell you on site what the job needs.
Can you match the new work to the old house?
That is the aim on every renovation. Ewan looks at the existing trims, levels and roof line first, so the new work meets the old without a visible join.
