Creating Space and Modernising an Older Home for a Growing Family

Gallery

A recent project by the Smith & Sons Ballarat team focused on renovating an older home to create more living space and give it a fresh appearance to meet the needs of a growing family.

The objective was to add a modern kitchen, dining area, lounge space, and laundry room. The project adhered to the budget and finished on schedule, resulting in a smooth construction process and a delighted homeowner. All this was to be done while renovating an older home.

The project commenced with an initial consultation to thoroughly discuss the owner’s requirements and vision. A structured plan was then developed, taking into account the existing foundations, architectural aspects, and desired functionalities of the new areas.

After the approval of the project plan, the process began by eliminating any obstacles or outdated structures through careful demolition. The site was prepared by clearing the area, levelling the ground, and making necessary adjustments to the foundation to seamlessly accommodate the extension.

The centrepiece of the project involved constructing a modern and functional kitchen. Plumbing and electrical systems were installed, and cabinets, countertops, and high-quality kitchen appliances were integrated. Adjacent to the kitchen, a spacious dining area was created for meals and gatherings. The lounge space was designed to reflect the owner’s preferences, including appropriate flooring, lighting fixtures, and modifications to the walls and ceilings. Additionally, a dedicated laundry room was built with all the necessary plumbing connections, electrical installations, and ventilation systems.

Quality assurance measures were implemented throughout the construction process to ensure top-notch craftsmanship. Regular inspections and quality checks were conducted to promptly address any issues and ensure compliance with industry standards while meeting the owner’s expectations. The objective was to deliver an extension that not only met but exceeded the client’s satisfaction and brought their vision to life.

Upon completion of the home extension project, a comprehensive handover process took place. This involved final inspections, detailed documentation, and warranties provided for all installed components and systems. The owner was also guided through a detailed walkthrough of the extension, ensuring their familiarity with the new spaces and proper functioning.

This project effectively expanded an older home by incorporating a new kitchen, dining area, lounge space, and laundry room. Through meticulous planning, adherence to the budget, and timely execution, a seamless and gratifying extension was achieved, fulfilling the owner’s requirements and enhancing the overall value and enjoyment of the home.
