Cost of Building an Extension Per Square Metre
The cost of building an extension per square metre can vary depending on many factors such as accessibility, the type and style of home, previous construction methods, the integrity of the existing structure and many other things. Will the extension involve insulation costs? Do foundations need to be reinforced? Are there any load-bearing walls? Some builders will happily give you the cost of an extension based on materials only, but to truly understand what cost will be involved, it’s necessary to have a chat with a builder that can weigh all factors of the building process up for you, taking into account various options that might be available, as well as budget considerations.

Associated Cost of Building an Extension Compared to Moving
The cost of building an extension is often non-prohibitive when taking into account alternatives such as moving. In many cases, an extension is more affordable than selling and moving into a bigger home, particularly when you factor real estate fees and stamp duty into the equation. If you have equity in your home, it might be a good idea to get financial advice about refinancing your home to fund an extension.
Cost of Extension Considerations and Options
The cost of an extension also depends on the type of extension you want to build, and the purpose of that extension. If you’re looking at a two storey extension, you’ll be looking at roughly 50% more cost as compared to a single storey extension. Loft extensions can cost more than one might think at first, because they need to be well insulated. Basement conversions can cost up to $500,000 while garage conversions can be done for close to $20,000. We invite you to contact us for a discussion about the type of extension that would be best for you. Pricing can range wildly depending on many factors.
