The Ground Floor Extension Process

From concept to your expanded home

We discuss your extension needs, desired functionality, and budget. We provide expert advice on what is structurally possible on your specific section and how to maximise the new space.

We handle all applications for building and resource consents with the Auckland Council, managing the approval process on your behalf.

We guide you through selecting materials, colours, and finishes that match your existing home and reflect your vision.

You receive a comprehensive quote that details every aspect of the extension and cost, presented in person for complete clarity.

Your dedicated Site Foreman manages the entire build, coordinating all trades and ensuring timelines are met. You receive regular updates and have constant contact with your project manager.

Frequently Asked Questions

Let us answer some of your questions regarding our services and business

1Do I need council consent for a ground floor extension?

Yes, almost all ground floor extensions require building consent from the Auckland Council. Depending on your specific design and section, resource consent may also be required. We handle the entire application process for you.

A typical ground floor extension takes between 3 to 5 months, depending on the size, complexity of the design, and site conditions. We provide a detailed timeline during the quotation phase.

We work closely with architects and carefully select materials (such as matching cladding, roofing, and joinery) to ensure the new addition blends seamlessly with your home’s original character and architectural style. We also consider colour, texture, and design details.

Yes, for most ground floor extensions, you can remain in your home. We can often seal off the construction zone, allowing you to continue living in the existing areas. However, you may experience some disruption during construction. We will discuss the best approach during your consultation.
