Ask a Question
How much does a second-storey addition cost in Perth?

Cost depends on the size of the addition, complexity of the design, materials and finishes chosen, and council approval fees. We provide detailed quotes so you know what to expect before work begins.

Can any home support a second-storey extension?

Not every home is ready for a second level without preparation - we check foundation strength, wall structure, roof type and engineering requirements, and include any reinforcement needed in your project plan.

How long does it take to complete a second-storey addition?

Generally 3 to 6 months in total: planning and design (2-4 weeks), council approvals (4-8 weeks), construction (3-4 months), and final touches (2-3 weeks).

Do I need council approval for a second-storey extension in Perth?

Yes. We prepare and submit the necessary applications, ensure your designs meet building codes, and manage any changes requested by the council.

Can I live in my home during the build?

In many cases, yes, if the work is primarily on the upper level and safe access to living areas can be maintained. We assess your situation and advise the best option for your comfort and safety.
