OUR STRESS-FREE, STREAMLINED PROCESS

Building a home extension with Altec is a comprehensive process designed to enhance your existing property’s functionality and market appeal.

Here’s an overview of the entire process and the steps involved:

Initial Consultation

Begin by reaching out to us to schedule a free design consultation. During this meeting, a design consultant will visit your home to discuss your vision, assess the site, and understand your specific needs. They’ll provide insights into design possibilities that align with your lifestyle and the existing structure of your home.

Design and Quotation

Based on the proposed project in the consultation, our team will develop a tailored design proposal. This includes detailed plans and a comprehensive quote outlining the scope of work and construction costs. Major extensions will generally cost more, however, we always ensure our high quality extensions are as cost effective as possible.

Agreement and Planning

Once you’re satisfied with the design and quote, you’ll proceed to sign a building agreement. We will then conduct a thorough site inspection to finalise planning details. We’ll handle all necessary council approvals and ensure compliance with local regulations, simplifying the process for you.

Final Inspection And Handover

Upon completion, a private building certifier will inspect the extension to ensure it meets all quality and safety standards. We will then provide you with a comprehensive handover kit, including warranty information and maintenance guidelines, ensuring you’re well-equipped to enjoy your new space.

Additional Inspiration

Today’s home extensions are smarter and more considered than ever. Brisbane homeowners are increasingly choosing compact yet highly functional layouts that make the most of every square metre. Instead of large, boxy additions, we’re seeing a shift towards:

  • Open-plan spaces that flow seamlessly from kitchen to patio
  • Multi-use rooms that adapt to your family’s changing needs
  • Clever storage solutions that keep spaces tidy and usable

Altec extensions are also designed to enhance indoor-outdoor living. We can include features like wide-opening sliding doors, alfresco areas and skylights to let in natural light and fresh air — perfect for Queensland’s climate.

Thoughtful design makes all the difference in a successful home extension. Whether your block is narrow, sloped, or unusually shaped, Altec can create a layout that works for your home and your lifestyle. We’ll help you explore options like:

  • Opening up your home to the outdoors with patios, sunrooms or screened enclosures
  • Using design techniques like zoned flooring, varied ceiling heights or large windows to create separation and enhance light flow

Every Altec extension is engineered for comfort, and style.

 

A custom extension is one of the most effective ways to increase the market value of your Brisbane property, but only when done right. With Altec, you can be confident your extension will not only improve your day-to-day living but also appeal to future buyers. We help you make smart decisions that add long-term value, including:

  • High-quality, durable materials that look great and last
  • Layouts that complement your existing home and suit a wide range of lifestyles

From extra living space to outdoor entertaining zones, our design team will help you make the most of your property’s potential by adding functional, high-value additional space.

We offer an extensive range of home extensions for properties in Brisbane City and surrounding areas. Our extension specialists build decks, patios, pergolas, carports and boat shelters of all shapes and sizes. To ensure the finished project lives up to your expectations, our friendly team will work with you from the very beginning of the home extension process. Our attention to detail ensures your new extension complements the look and feel of your home, right down to the finish and fixtures.

Prior to building your patio or other ground floor extensions, our professionally trained designers will walk you through the process of acquiring building approval or council approval and choosing suitable materials for your home extension.

As with any home renovation project, the final cost of your extension depends on a variety of factors. These include the size and complexity of the build as well as the choice of materials and finishes.

At Altec, we understand that our clients want to know what to expect in terms of cost, which is why we offer a free design consultation. Our experienced team will discuss your needs and provide you with a detailed quote for the work.

Our goal is to help you create the outdoor living space of your dreams, while also staying within your budget. Whether you’re looking to add a patio, carport, or other extension to your Brisbane home, Altec will ensure you know exactly what you’re paying for.
