STEP 1: LET'S GET STARTED

Inquiry & Eligibility

To help determine if a granny  flat can  be built  on your  property,  we will require the following  documents:

• A Section  149 (2)  Planning  Certificate from your local council
• A Sewer  Diagram  for the  property
• A Title Search of the property
• Confirmation that your property is at least 450m2 & 12m wide

STEP  2: ASSESSMENT

Contour Survey and Design Options

Once we have reviewed your documents,  we will request a small fee to begin  preliminary  investigation & order a contour survey which will outline the parameters of your new build. Once this becomes available  to us, our Granny Flat Consultant will  then  meet  with  you  to discuss  designs  that  are best suited  to your block and comply with  statutory codes and regulations.  Your concepts  and inclusion  options will also be discussed.

STEP 3:  DESIGN & QUOTATION

Design Confirmation and Preliminary Tender

Once you have selected your layout and inclusion package, our design team will provide you with a footprint of your home on your property.   Our sales team will also  provide you with a preliminary tender for the building works.  Once the tender has been signed and accepted, our design team will then draw up a full set of detailed  Architectural Plans for your new Granny Flat  including floor plans, elevations,  and specifications.    We will  work  with  you  until  you are 100% happy with your design  and no more changes are required.

STEP 4: CONTRACT & APPROVAL

Application Submission & Pre-Construction

Once  you  have  signed  off  on  the  final  drawings,  the  completion  of  accompanying  documentation  required  for submission  to  the  Private  Certifier  will  be  ordered.  This  includes  hydraulic  design,  structural  design,  basix  energy assessment  and  Sydney  water  quick-check.  Once  we  receive  all consultant  documentation,  the  application  is then lodged  with  the  Private  Certifier  for  a 10 day  certification  process  (unless  submission  to  Local Council  is  a  must  if design does not meet  housing  code regulations).  During this  stage,  our  team will  prepare your  final contract and  guide you through colour selections  for your new building.  Once you  have  final  approval  and  contracts  have  been  signed  and exchanged,  it's time to get construction  underway! 

STEP 5: CONSTRUCTION

Let's Build!

Your allocated supervisor will make contact with you and advise you of your project start date, which is usually within 10 days of receiving final approval. The Construction process is approximately 10 to 12weeks, depending on construction methods, the complexity of the site and of course weather conditions.
