Home Extension Builder in Allambie Heights
A home extension in Allambie Heights works the ridge — 1960s-1980s homes on 600 to 900m² blocks where the fall opens district and ocean glimpses one level up, and the premium replacements around you set the finish standard.
The sandstone is read before any dig, the bush-edge lots get the BAL assessment, and the era fabric gets licensed handling.
At the $2.4M to $3.6M median, the wing beats surrendering the ridge position to move.

The ridge gives the direction
Allambie Heights' fall puts district and ocean glimpses one storey up — and where the block's orientation offers them, the first-floor addition earns its cost in the view alone.
The flatter blocks take generous rear wings instead, priced against the rock.
Bush edges and era handled
BAL ratings apply against the reserve boundaries, the sandstone is read before excavation, and the era fabric gets licensed handling.
The BAL materials, the rock read and the licensed removal are all in the fixed price.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
The first job on an extension is finding out what you're extending onto. Allambie Heights homes from the 1960s–1980s + 2010s+ premium replacements were built to different standards — we open walls, check footings, verify load paths. The existing house has to carry the new work.
⏱Design follows the existing roof. A bad extension looks like a bolt-on; a good one reads as original. Matched brickwork or contrasting render (whichever the architecture calls for), tied-in roofline, continuous flooring where it should be continuous.
⏱Construction happens while you live in the house. That means weatherproofing every night, staging the works so kitchens and bathrooms don't disappear on the same week, and keeping the site clean of debris that doesn't belong in a family home.
⏱Finish is seamless. Paint match, floor match, roofline match, brick match where possible. The only way to tell the extension is new is the date on the plans.
