Why knockdown and rebuild?
There are many advantages to a knockdown and rebuild – like living in the location you love. You get to keep your current address, stay close to your children’s school and local shops, and enjoy a brand-new home. Without the hassle of searching for the perfect block of land.
One of the key benefits of knockdown and rebuild projects is cost-effectiveness. As renovations and extensions involve time-consuming demolition, rectification work, not to mention the risk of hidden construction issues, they’re often more expensive per square metre than new builds. Moreover, costs can quickly spiral during the design stage, making it difficult to budget accurately.
Unlike renovations and extensions, which require working around existing structures, knockdown rebuilds offer far greater design flexibility. Renovations and extensions also often force homeowners to compromise to stay within budget, so opting to rebuild and starting with a clean slate means fewer restrictions. What’s more, you have the freedom to choose the style, size, sustainability features, and modern building practices that best suit your lifestyle.
Another reason why knockdown rebuilds are a better option is that renovations can uncover hidden issues such as leaky pipes or faulty wiring, quickly turning an exciting project into a stressful and costly ordeal. Knockdown rebuilds minimise this uncertainty, giving you greater control over budget and timelines. Building new provides peace of mind, as contingency costs are less likely to blow out compared to renovations.
