Was wondering if anybody would have an idea of what the ball-park figure for this extension: (Brunswick Vic) http://i341.photobucket.com/albums/o386 ... 08/Ext.jpg Was going to do an owner-builder (for the extension) but I have come to the realisation that the task is beyond me. Good access to the property via a wide laneway. I'm willing to give the builder a 'ready' site to minimise cost (ie I'll demolish existing dwelling) First quote I've got (ball-park) 130-160K...I was budgeting for around 100K so way over my budget. Was that quote over the top? anyone can recommend a good builder/company?. The living/dining is about 5x5 meters (in case you can't se it on the picture). Any opinions/advice welcome! thanks Re: What would be a reasonable price range for this extension? 2Jul 22, 2008 9:22 pm Hi and welcome to the forum.
I have no idea about the cost involved - but have recently been shocked at the cost of renovating verses new building. It seams its cheaper to build a new house than renovate. Good luck with the project I have posted the plan for others to see - if you want I will take it off.

I'm interviewing Supa group, Extension Factory, Extensions Unlimited and couple of private builders...hope to get some better quotes Re: What would be a reasonable price range for this extension? 4Jul 22, 2008 11:23 pm Luis,
I used extensions unlimited a few years back. They were cheap and professional and their quality of work was to an extremely high standard.... They were less than half the cost of the extension factory for the same extension. If you get to meet Richard you will find him to be a very solid character. Seems good to me. I've been told $4-5k/sqm is reasonable in Perth. 2 11137 Hi, We have a single story MacDonald Jones house, on a waffle pod slab with steel frame. Are we able to build a second story extension?
