Hi all,
I am new here.
We are about to embark on renovation/extension to our house in Melbourne.
Hubby work is very demanding so I'm going to take charge of all this and get the ball rolling.
We haven't started anything yet except my hand drawn house plan and what I would like...that being said it will come down to $$. We have allocated ourselves $200K for the reno - no more.
We aren't DIY so we are considering getting SupaGroup in for chat. I am aware you will always pay more for these firms than if you did it through a draftsman & select your own builder.
can anyone tell me if there is software available on the net that will allow me to draw more plans than with a paper and pencil.
Also, can anyone tell me if it's expensive to move a bathroom and a kitchen. our bathroom is smack bang in the middle of the house. Our kitchen is on the right side of the house. In my 'dream' renovation plan, I want to move the kitchen to the back of the house where we want an open plan living area with a decking & big open doors. The bathroom will move to where the kitchen is.
By getting rid of the bathroom which is in the middle of the house will allow for a long hallway from the front door to the back open plan area.
I'll work on uploading what the current house plan is and what I want so you all get an understanding of what I'm trying to explain.
Thanks for reading.
