Emily Nair
House Extension Professionals in Essendon, VIC, AU
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 October 2020
“I have had the privilege of working alongside Emily Nair of i.Balter Design on a number of construction projects. Emily’s most valuable qualities are her attention to detail, her meticulousness with her drawings and her calm and efficient approach. She has a warm and respectful manner with clients and is highly approachable. Emily’s ability to cater for the specific needs of her clients is outstanding. She is a great listener and is able to individualise her designs to suit the lifestyles of the people she designs for. She is highly organised and takes the stress away from the challenging and somewhat tedious tasks of obtaining permits and liaising with Council. I have received terrific feedback from many happy clients about Emily’s professionalism. From a builder’s perspective, Emily’s plans are highly detailed and accurate. She is very knowledgeable with her understanding of construction, therefore making required changes to plans easily and quickly. Emily has planned extremely complex designs to difficult existing structures, such as her new extension to a severely dilapidated 1850’s homestead in Ivanhoe East. Her design resulted in a seamless addition to a historical Melbourne home; flawlessly unifying the beauty of yesteryear with the practicalities of today. I have recommended i.Balter Design to many of my clients and I will continue to do so. Emily is a pleasure to work with and I look forward to working alongside her on many other future projects.”
I AM - Identity Architecture Melbourne
House Extension Professionals in Essendon, VIC, AU
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 March 2016
“Our experience with IO Architecture was a great result after inviting their services on our behalf to various, useless, overpaid,council departments. Apart from council "doing my head in" the stress relief by Io Architecture stepping in and being persistence proved worthwhile and finally gave us our expected and deserving result. The fees charged were reasonable and regular communication regarding our project was excellent. We recommend your next project to IO Architecture for a complete service.”

“Lateral have assisted my building and development company with many projects, all of which have had a common thread. Excellent results delivered on time at a reasonable cost. John and his team produce excellent designs and are experts at navigating the town planning mine field. They are thoroughly professional and always contactable.

Madden Building Group
House Extension Professionals in Essendon, VIC, AU
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 April 2017
“Madden Building Group were fantastic from start to finish. We hired them to design our dream home and they delivered far above our expectations. We chose them because of the strength of their work, their Eco focus and ability to maximise usable space so we didn't get stuck with dead space that never got used. We also loved their style! Being our first home, we were a bit nervous about the whole process, they were really good at listening to what we wanted and used their own ideas to deliver a design that met our expectations and even delivered features we didn't even know we'd want but we totally love! If we hadn't gone with Madden, we would not have got a design that reflected who we are... we would've just got what we wrote on a list... and ultimately, that's what you want out of a design... something that ticks all the boxes but has that extra personal touch so it's a perfect match for you and your family. They were really easy to deal with and answered all our questions and adapted the design as we went along. They were really knowledgable about all the processes required and clearly explained everything. If you want a design firm to build your dream home, I would recommend Madden Building Group above anyone else.”

“Every day we find cause to enjoy our home and be thankful for the creative architecture and professional work of DE atelier - their design is innovative, functional and a retreat for peaceful living. Special features include raised walkway floating over a pond at the entrance, light-filled stairwell directing residents to lower level self contained living area, two bedrooms, study and bathroom. Upstairs the kitchen, living, balcony and master bedroom. Moving between the living and the bedroom features an internal bridge / walkway.

Gardiner Architects
House Extension Professionals in Essendon, VIC, AU
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 September 2014
“Worked with Paul and Mel on a partial redesign of our house - a knock down of the back portion and a rebuild to transform a small 1880s worker's terrace into a modern light filled, stylish and spacious 21st century home. The pair exceeded expectations on the design: they took all our 'nice to haves' and added them in with the 'must haves'. I feel they truly understood our vision from the outset, so that what we ended up with is simply perfect.”

Architect or Architectural Designer FAQs
A house extension is a construction process that involves expanding the footprint of your existing home. This could be extending outwards, either to the side or rear of the house, or upwards by adding another storey. House extensions provide extra living space and can significantly increase the value of your property.

House extensions can be categorised based on direction, structure and function. The main types include rear extensions, side return extensions, wrap-around extensions, and double or single-storey extensions. More specific ones could be kitchen extensions, loft conversions, basement conversions, garage conversions or conservatories. Select the type that best suits your property and meets your space needs, if you are unsure, speaking with a local home extension builder in Essendon.

Generally, house extensions are worth the investment. They provide additional living space and can dramatically increase the resale value of your home, often covering the initial investment cost. However, plan carefully and choose a reputable house extension builder to ensure a high-quality build that will add value to your property.

The cost of a house extension can vary significantly based on several factors, such as the size, complexity of the design, quality of materials used, and geographical location. However, as a rough estimate, a single-storey extension can range from £1,000 to £2,000 per square metre, whereas a two-storey extension can start at around £1,500 per square metre.

Planning a house extension involves several stages, including idea generation, design, planning permission, and construction. Consult with a house extension architect to create a design based on your needs and budget. Ensure to check with your local council about planning permissions. Finally, choose a reputable house extension builder to bring your vision to life.
