Renovations

Renovation, extension and house raising engineering

Structural design for changes to existing homes, from a single wall removal to raising and building under a Queenslander.

Who we work with

Renovation builders, building designers, architects and owner builders.

What the engineering covers

  • Load-bearing wall removals, new openings and the beams that replace them
  • Raising a house, new posts and footings, and building in underneath
  • Ground-floor extensions and upper-storey additions
  • Checking whether existing footings and framing can take new loads
  • Fixes for problems found during demolition, such as rotted framing or inadequate footings
  • Drawings, calculations and Form 15 for approval, and inspections during construction

Existing buildings need checking first

Every renovation starts with a building nobody designed for the change you’re making. We check the load paths in the existing structure first, so the new work is designed around what is actually there.
