A home renovation in Narraweena usually means modernising solid 1950s to 1970s brick stock on a quiet inland Northern Beaches block. The homes sit on 500 to 750m² blocks with sandstone topography, so the work is typically reconfiguring dated layouts, opening up living areas, updating kitchens and bathrooms, and often a rear extension. The sandstone shapes any structural work.
The Hawkesbury Sandstone brings rock excavation, typically $40K to $90K, on structural work. Fibro in the eaves or additions is cleared under a licensed strip-out before the new work starts. Any structural change checks the existing footings before a heavy addition goes on.
What I check first on your Narraweena renovation: the depth to rock, the condition of the existing structure and footings, and any asbestos in the older fabric. Those drive the scope and the final price.

Modernise the solid post-war stock
Narraweena's 1950s to 1970s brick homes were built solid, and that is an advantage for a renovation: the bones are usually sound, so the money goes into reconfiguring dated layouts, opening up the living areas, and modernising kitchens, bathrooms and services rather than fixing structure. On a 500 to 750m² block there is genuine room to extend at the rear.
It is a quiet inland Northern Beaches suburb, so a renovation lifts the home to modern standard while keeping you in a settled location. That suits the Narraweena market well.
Sandstone rock, asbestos handled
The Hawkesbury Sandstone under Narraweena brings rock excavation, typically $40K to $90K, on any structural work, so it gets priced from a real geotech rather than assumed. Older homes commonly hold asbestos in the eaves and additions, so a licensed strip-out clears it as part of the job. Any heavy addition has the existing footings checked first, and done right the renovation runs cleanly.
