COMMON REASONS TO EXTEND YOUR HOME
House extensions are about more than just square footage. They're about creating lasting memories, fostering connection, and building a home that truly reflects you and your family.
Accommodate a growing family
Need extra bedrooms, a dedicated playroom, or a larger family room? A house extension creates much-needed breathing space for a growing household.
Enhance lifestyle and functionality
Craving a home gym, a dedicated home office, or a luxurious master suite? Extending your home allows you to tailor it to your evolving needs and desires.
Increase property value
A well-planned house extension can significantly boost your home’s value by adding living space, improving functionality, and enhancing curb appeal.
Maximize existing land
Have a large backyard or unused driveway? Extending your home lets you utilize your existing land efficiently, creating valuable indoor space without sacrificing outdoor enjoyment.
Connect with nature
Longing to bring the outdoors in? A thoughtfully designed extension with garden views, expansive windows, or even a sunroom can seamlessly connect your home to nature.
Avoid the stress of moving
Moving houses can be expensive and disruptive. Extending your current home allows you to stay in your familiar neighborhood, maintain established community connections, and avoid the hassle of relocation.
Future-proof your investment
With house prices in Auckland on the rise, extending your home now adds immediate value and secures you in a desirable location. It’s a strategic investment that can potentially yield significant returns down the line if you decide to sell later.
Upgrade without upsizing
In a competitive market, finding a larger house with all your desired features can be challenging and expensive. Extending your current home allows you to upgrade your living space, adding value and functionality without the hefty price tag of a new property.

“Working with Kevin and the team was easy because we weren’t having to ring up different suppliers ourselves, it was like one team does this, another team does that – and everything was done for us under one roof. Kevin had a contact for everything, and the experience was simple. You hear a lot of horror stories about doing renovations and I was like, well that was very easy…”

Full House Renovation
“It now feels like a big, simple, inspiring space, whereas before it was a big space but it was very dated and there was a lot of distractions around – now it’s quite a nice clean, modern, minimalist feel to it. It felt like before, it was a 1980’s home, but now when you walk in, the house is impressive, it’s a lovely space to be in, it feels impressive and everyone who comes here are impressed and enjoys it – but it still feels like a home..”

House Extension Process
The Client Process for a House Extension in Auckland: From Enquiry to Sign-off
Research and Inspiration: You’ll likely start by browsing online resources, magazines, and visiting open homes to gather ideas for your extension. Pinterest and Houzz are great platforms for creating mood boards and visualizing your dream space.
Contacting Professionals: Once you have a rough idea, it’s time to reach out for initial consultations. With most extensions, there are limitations to what you can do dependant on your location and zoning rules – if you haven’t got an architect yet, that would be the best first step to see what your options are.
Detailed Brief: Discuss your vision, budget, and any specific requirements with our architect (or yours if you have one). They’ll help refine your ideas and create a brief outlining the scope of the project and this is where they would carry out a feasibility study for your intended house extension.
Consent Process: Depending on the size and complexity of your extension, you may need resource consent from Auckland Council. Your chosen professional can guide you through this process and handle the necessary paperwork.
Engineering and Permits: Once the design is finalized, engineers will prepare structural and technical drawings. Building permits will also be obtained from Auckland Council to ensure your project adheres to building regulations.
Site Visit and Proposal: Once a draft plan is done, our design team will visit your property to assess the plans and discuss changes if need be to suit your requirements/budget. They’ll then develop a detailed proposal outlining the scope of work, materials, timeline, and most importantly, a quoted cost on your house extension.
Submission to Auckland Council: Once you’re happy with the costings and final plan, it is then submitted to Auckland Council for final building consent approval.
Pre-construction Meeting: Before the build begins, have a final meeting with your builder to discuss timelines, communication protocols, and any potential disruptions.
Construction Phase: The construction phase will vary depending on the size and complexity of your house extension. Regular communication with your builder is crucial to stay informed about progress and address any concerns.
Inspections: Council will conduct inspections at key stages of the construction to ensure everything meets safety and building code requirements.
Final Touches and Snag List: Once construction is complete, your builder will address any minor imperfections or “snags” identified during a final walkthrough.
Code of Compliance Certificate (CCC): Upon satisfactory completion of all inspections, your builder will apply for a CCC from Auckland Council, signifying that your extension meets all building regulations and is safe for occupancy.
Sign-off and Celebration: Finally, it’s time to sign off on the project and celebrate your beautiful new extension!
- Set a realistic budget and stick to it. Unexpected costs can arise, so factor in a contingency buffer.
- Communicate openly and honestly with your chosen professionals. Clear communication is key to ensuring a smooth and successful project.
- Be patient and flexible. Construction projects can encounter unforeseen delays, so maintain a positive attitude and adapt to changes as needed.
By following these steps and staying informed throughout the process, you can ensure a stress-free and rewarding experience when extending your house in Auckland. Remember, your dream extension is just a well-planned project away!

Frequently Asked Questions about House Extensions
Common House Extension Questions
Do I need a house extension?
This is a common starting point for many people considering an extension. Consider if your current space is cramped, lacks functionality, or doesn't suit your lifestyle. Adding rooms, expanding living areas, or creating dedicated spaces like home offices or gyms can greatly improve your quality of life.
How much does a house extension cost?
Costs vary greatly depending on the size, complexity, and materials used. A small simple extension might start around $80,000, while a large house extension could reach $200,000 or more.
Do I need building consent for a house extension?
Most house extensions (if not all) will require building consent (and in some case resource consent) from Auckland Council. An architect will be able to advise you on this by reviewing your property file and zoning rules.
What are the different types of house extensions?
There are many options! Popular choices include: Single-story extensions: Adding space at ground level, perfect for kitchens, dining areas, or bedrooms. Double-story extensions: Creating extra space on both floors, ideal for larger families or adding dedicated rooms like home offices. Wrap-around extensions: Extending on two or more sides of the house, great for maximizing space and creating open-plan living areas. Loft conversions: Utilizing unused loft space for bedrooms, bathrooms, or home offices.
How long does a house extension take?
The timeline depends on the size and complexity of the project. A small house extension could be completed in as little as 3-5 months, while a larger house extension might take 6-8 months or more. This doesn't include waiting for building consent approval from Auckland Council (which takes 2-4 months dependant on time of year)
