Quick Answer

A home renovation in Longueville costs $100,000–$500,000+. Kitchen from $30K, bathroom from $20K, full renovation from $150K. Buildana manages design, Lane Cove Council approvals (where required), and construction under one fixed-price contract.

Modernising Longueville Homes

A home renovation in Longueville is harbour-fall heritage work — 1880s to 1940s mansions on 600 to 1,400m² blocks above Tambourine Bay and Woodford Bay, where the HCAs steer the approach and the water steers the design.

The renovation conserves what the peninsula's streets protect and opens the living to the bays — levels and terraces engineered down the substantial fall, sandstone read by geotech.

Homes of this age get the full checks: lead paint, asbestos, and original footings assessed before structural work.

We renovate fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Get our renovation scope, with heritage and fall resolved, before you commit.

Buildana manages the complete home renovation process in Longueville — from initial consultation and design through to approvals (where required) and fixed-price construction to handover. Your home, modernised.

The bays set the design

Longueville's premium is Woodford Bay and Tambourine Bay, and the renovation earns it — conserved Victorian and Federation fabric, transformed interiors, and living reoriented to the water down the engineered fall.

On blocks to 1,400m², the rear wings can be genuinely generous.

Age demands the full checks

On 1880s-1940s homes, lead paint and asbestos are licensed processes and the original footings are assessed before any structural change — the discipline that keeps heritage renovations clean.

All priced into the scope upfront.

How It Works

From First Call to Final Key

Everything that has to be right before we touch the ground. On-site meeting to walk through your Longueville 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.

The Longueville construction phase. Fixed price, programmed, supervised. If your renovation involves structural work, we lodge DA or CDC with Lane Cove 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.

The job isn't done when the site's clean; it's done when you have keys, certificates and warranties. Final inspection, Occupation Certificate (if required), 6-year structural warranty on any structural work, and maintenance guide. Your Longueville home, transformed.
