A home renovation in Freshwater works the village where surfing came ashore — Federation beach houses and inter-war heritage under the village HCA, on 450 to 800m² blocks between the headlands.
The renovation conserves the beach-house character the Duke's village protects and opens the living to the ocean — coastal hazard mapped on the direct beachfront, salt-grade materials throughout.
Rock is priced from the geotech, and licensed hazard handling covers the pre-war fabric.
We renovate fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Get our renovation scope, with heritage and hazard resolved, before you commit.

The Duke's village standard
Freshwater's HCA protects the beach-house village character that makes the suburb what it is — and the renovation honours it: conserved Federation fabric, interiors rebuilt for modern coastal life, the ocean drawn in.
The village premium pays for the work done exactly.
Hazard, salt and rock
The coastal hazard zone is mapped on the direct beachfront, salt-grade materials are standard, and rock is priced from the geotech.
All priced into the scope upfront.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
On-site meeting to walk through your Freshwater home room by room. We identify what needs to change, what can stay, and where the budget delivers the most impact. Written scope and cost estimate within a week.
⏱Design includes selections for everything you'll touch: tapware, tiles, benchtops, splashbacks, joinery handles, paint colours, lighting, flooring. We lock these at design stage with cost-confirmed inclusions, not provisional sums that creep up during construction.
⏱If your renovation involves structural work, we lodge DA or CDC with Northern Beaches Council. Most kitchen and bathroom renovations don't require approval. Buildana advises on what needs lodgement and what doesn't.
⏱Trade sequencing is the difference between a 6-week renovation and a 12-week one. Demo, structural, plumbing rough-in, electrical rough-in, plaster, waterproofing, tiling, joinery install, fit-off, paint — each trade in and out cleanly, no waiting on the next sub.
⏱Final inspection, Occupation Certificate (if required), 6-year structural warranty on any structural work, and maintenance guide. Your Freshwater home, transformed.
