    Home Extensions

    Extending gives you the space you need without leaving the home you already love, more room, better light, and a layout that works for the way you live now. We build home extensions that feel seamless, so the new spaces look and function like they were always part of the plan.

    Our clients and teams achieve amazing results

    Their entire team, as well as the trades they use, are extremely professional, personable and communicative. Nothing has ever ‘too hard’, and their attention to detail and expectation of high-quality finishes is excellent. They went out of their way to ensure we felt comfortable whilst continuing to live in the front house on the site.

    Jess

    It has been a fantastic experience watching how Nathan actually created my dream home step by step, and solving the problems that unavoidably would come up during the construction process. I definitely highly recommend Craft Built Homes to anyone who has a unique dream building project and is searching for high level craftsmanship.

    Regina

    Open-plan kitchen and dining area with timber cabinetry and island bench

    The quality of the final product is better than we expected and was finished ahead of schedule. The Team listened to what we wanted and helped to problem solve to keep within our budget. We highly recommend Craft Built and would use them again without hesitation. Thanks for an amazing kitchen/living area renovation!
