Renovating Homes in Belfield
A home renovation in Belfield works the Strathfield LGA's quiet south — Federation cottages, inter-war heritage and post-war brick on 350 to 600m² blocks, with HCAs on several streets and the Cooks River fringe checked for flood controls.
The era read leads: heritage conserves and extends, post-war brick opens freely — at the LGA's gentler southern entry.
The pre-war fabric carries lead paint with the asbestos check, and the old footings are assessed first.

The quiet south
Belfield carries the Strathfield LGA's character at its gentlest entry — conserved Federation and inter-war frontages on the HCA streets, opened post-war plans beyond, with the quiet streets keeping family life easy through the work.
On the Cooks River fringe, the flood controls are checked before the design is set.
Fabric handled properly
On the pre-war fabric, licensed processes handle lead paint and asbestos, with old footings assessed before structural work.
All priced into the scope upfront.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
We assess your Belfield home — existing condition, renovation scope, structural requirements, and budget. You'll receive a clear overview of costs and timeline before committing.
⏱Design phase includes floor plan modifications, 3D kitchen and bathroom renders, material palettes, and electrical layout. You approve every detail before construction begins.
⏱For renovations that need DA or CDC, we lodge structural drawings, hydraulic if wet areas move, BASIX if envelope changes, and SEE if DA. For pure cosmetic work, no lodgement, no permit fees — straight to scheduling trades.
⏱Fixed-price renovation from demolition of existing fittings to final finish. Staged programme keeps parts of your home liveable.
⏱Handover includes a defect walk-through where we mark any final touch-ups, complete them within a week, and re-inspect. The end-state is genuinely finished — not handed over with a list to chase trades back for.
⏱Quality Promise
Buildana's Belfield renovation approach: assess the existing fabric, design the changes, price the whole job, deliver on contract.
