A home renovation in Putney costs $100,000–$500,000+. Kitchen from $30K, bathroom from $20K, full renovation from $150K. Buildana manages design, City of Ryde Council approvals (where required), and construction under one fixed-price contract.
Modernising Putney Homes
A home renovation in Putney works the riverside village — Federation cottages and inter-war heritage on 550 to 850m² blocks, with the HCA village core conserved and the river fall engineered where it drops to the wharf.
The renovation conserves the village character and reorients the living to the river where the siting allows — ferry to Mortlake at the bottom of the hill, generous blocks giving the rear designs room.
The pre-war fabric gets licensed lead-paint and asbestos handling, and the shale with its sandstone outcrops is read on the fall.
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 Putney — from initial consultation and design through to approvals (where required) and fixed-price construction to handover. Your home, modernised.

Village core, river edge
Putney's HCA village core rewards the conserve-and-extend renovation — restored Federation frontage, modern living behind on the 550 to 850m² blocks — while the river-fall streets add suspended slab engineering where the ground drops.
The wharf and the village keep the suburb's demand quietly deep.
Fabric and fall handled
Lead paint joins asbestos on the pre-war fabric, licensed processes both, and the fall to the river is engineered early where it applies.
All priced into the scope upfront.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
We assess your Putney 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. All trades coordinated by your project manager with weekly updates.
⏱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.
