Ideas please?? 11May 24, 2008 9:09 pm Thanks for all the replies. It kinda helps knowing that we are not alone.
Thanks Yak_chat, I will be contacting those people shortly to see if they can help. OK, we had a guy from Roccas home improvements come round last night and he was very helpful and very professional. Liked the plans that we had drawn up and said that it was very do-able. So that made us happy. Very Happy Only thing he didnt really like was that we wanted double brick, just like the rest of the house. But that is one thing that I am sure about, it will be double brick to follow the existing house theme. Our next step he says is to get some plans drawn up at a cost of $500. and from these they will be able to supply a proper quote. But before that happens we have a couple more builders to talk to and get ideas off. 1 comes on monday and the other Tuesday. So I will let you know what happens. So, we have pretty much decided that we will go ahead with the reno's, thus keeping the heritage of the house and the street in tact!!! Hello ATKman, 12May 25, 2008 1:36 pm I will find another builders to have a look and see what happen next. ATKman, let's keep in touch in this forum and share some information.
according to my budget, I just want to have the building shell first, and reno next year. Do you guys think i can get the building shell below 600 dollars per sqm? Thanks Re: Building an Extension in Adelaide. Ideas please?? 13Jul 24, 2014 5:38 pm Well there is nothing like bringing an old thread back from the dead. Forgot that I had even posted on here. Happy to say that the reno is finished. (6 years ago actually) Went with a small one man band builder. Could not be happier, and we have used him a lot more over the years to do other jobs. The house is exactly what we wanted. So if anyone is looking for a builder in Adelaide I highly recommend you have a talk with Stuart from "James General Building". He promised us the house would be done in 6 months and before my first kiddy came along. It was 6 months to the day and 1 week before the baby arrived. Cant recommend doing a reno with a heavily pregnant whiny wife, but probably a lot better than having a new born in the house. Re: Building an Extension in Adelaide. Ideas please?? 14Jul 24, 2014 10:07 pm Just seen this^. My Mum done a double brick extension with this guy in semaphore, he did a great job it's a few years old now and there have been no problems with it at all. I would say both styles you have pictured are steel. The lower chord of the first pic would be a massive lump if made using timber considering the size of the rafters.
