Narrow, deep Victorian and Edwardian cottages, corrugated iron roofing, century-old timber stumps. Maribyrnong Heritage Overlay on many Village streets. 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.”
It limits the front, not the back. Much of Yarraville Village sits inside a Maribyrnong Heritage Overlay, which protects the street-facing character of the home, its facade, verandah, roofline and setback. It does not generally stop you extending or reconfiguring the kitchen at the rear. The typical approach is to keep the heritage front untouched and open up the back into a kitchen-living-dining extension. We check your specific overlay before we quote.
Yes, always. Yarraville's Victorian and Edwardian cottages are timber-stumped, and a century of ground movement means restumping or spot-repairs are common before a rear kitchen extension can safely go ahead. We inspect the subfloor at the site visit so restumping, if needed, is priced into your fixed-price quote from the start, not found halfway through the job.
A kitchen renovation in Yarraville typically runs $25,000 to $55,000. Standard scope (flat-pack cabinetry, laminate benchtop, ceramic tile) starts at $25,000 to $35,000. Mid-spec (semi-custom cabinetry, 20mm stone benchtop, porcelain tile) runs $35,000 to $45,000. Rear extensions, restumping and heritage-correct front detailing can add to cost. We give you a written fixed-price quote after a site visit, not an estimate from photos.
A standard kitchen renovation runs 4 to 6 weeks from demolition to handover. If a rear extension, restumping or Maribyrnong Council permit work is involved, allow additional lead time before work begins. We give you a specific start date and handover date in writing before anything starts.
