The work, clearly defined

What we can help with

An extension introduces new structure, roof lines and drainage to an existing property. We review proposed building additions and roofing connections so the scope, access requirements and responsibilities are clear.

  • Proposed extension scope review
  • Existing building interface assessment
  • Roof connections and flashings
  • Drainage coordination
  • Trade and construction staging
  • Site protection and completion planning

The final scope, inclusions and any exclusions are confirmed for your property before work proceeds.

What to consider

01

The junction matters

Changes in roof height, pitch and material create interfaces that need considered flashing and drainage details.

02

Existing capacity

The project team needs to assess how the extension affects the existing structure and stormwater system.

03

Approvals and boundaries

Setbacks, property constraints and required approvals should be resolved before construction commitments are made.

From enquiry to agreed work

Know what comes next.

  1. Step 1

    Tell us about the property

    Share the location, what you need and any known issues. We’ll discuss whether an inspection or further information is needed.

  2. Step 2

    Review the proposed scope

    Understand the recommended work, inclusions, exclusions and next steps before you make a commitment.

  3. Step 3

    Agree the work and timing

    Once the scope is accepted, access, materials and scheduling are confirmed for your project.

Common questions

Do I need drawings before enquiring?

You can make an initial enquiry before the drawings are complete. Pricing and construction planning usually require a defined design and the relevant engineering and approval information.

Can the new roof match the existing roof?

We can discuss compatible materials and profiles. Exact matches depend on the existing product, age, weathering and current availability.

Will drainage need to change?

A larger or altered roof can change runoff. Gutters, downpipes and discharge arrangements need to be reviewed as part of the design.
