Some of Melbourne's oldest residential buildings, pre-1870 maritime-era cottages, extensive Hobsons Bay heritage overlays. We check all of this before we quote, not after.
We say the thing, then stop. No jargon, no runaround. We pick up the phone.
“I relocated interstate with two dogs and never thought a new home could feel like me, but they took me under their wing, kept me updated the whole way, and let me customise everything from the flooring to the kitchen layout. Genuine, passionate, and a pleasure to deal with.”
Yes, and it's exactly why we don't quote from a template. Williamstown was Melbourne's original port, and some of its houses, particularly around the old maritime precincts near James Street, date from before 1870, among the oldest residential buildings in Melbourne. Early construction techniques and materials from that era behave differently to a Victorian-era timber cottage from 20 years later. We assess your specific home's age and construction at the site visit.
Most standard, internal kitchen renovations in Williamstown do not require a planning permit. Williamstown has extensive Hobsons Bay heritage overlays, particularly around the historic port precincts, so structural or external changes on a heritage-listed property will likely need one. We identify your property's specific status during the site visit and advise you before you commit to anything.
Yes, and it's a large part of what we do in Hobsons Bay. Williamstown grew as Melbourne's port from the 1850s, and many of its early homes were built for people connected to the maritime industry. Kitchens in these homes are often small and disconnected from the rest of the house. We know what's involved before we quote, not after we've started demolition.
A kitchen renovation in Williamstown typically runs $28,000 to $65,000. Standard scope (flat-pack cabinetry, laminate benchtop, ceramic tile) starts at $28,000 to $40,000. Mid-spec (semi-custom cabinetry, 20mm stone benchtop, porcelain tile) runs $40,000 to $55,000. Older maritime-era cottages and heritage-sensitive detailing can add to cost. We give you a written fixed-price quote after a site visit, not an estimate from photos.
