Home extensions in South Melbourne

South Melbourne houses are narrow, usually attached on at least one side, and hemmed in by a laneway or a neighbour's wall. An extension here is an access and planning problem before it is a building one. That is where we start.

What we build

  • Ground-floor rear extensions - kitchen, living and dining reworked as one space
  • Second-storey additions over an existing footprint
  • Side returns that claim the dead strip beside the house
  • Garage, cellar and outbuilding conversions

Working on a tight site

Most of the risk on a South Melbourne job sits outside the house. Scaffold that has to stand in a laneway. A party wall that needs a protection works notice served on the neighbour before anything is touched. Parking permits through the City of Port Phillip. Deliveries timed so a truck is not blocking a one-way street at school pick-up. We work all of that out before the contract is signed, not after, because it is the part that moves dates and costs once a job is running.

How a job runs

  • A first conversation on site, at no cost, to work out what is actually possible
  • A written scope, clearly set out
  • A Master Builders Victoria contract
  • One point of contact for the whole build

Brad did a fantastic job with my garage build. He was professional throughout, clearly explained the process, and kept me updated on progress at every stage. The project was completed on time and to a very high standard. I'm extremely happy with the result and would highly recommend Brad to anyone looking for quality workmanship and great service. Thanks Brad!

I highly recommend BOS Constructions, Brad has done two extensive renovations for me and is about to undertake a third one, his work ethic and commitment are outstanding, both of the previous renovations had to be finished within a certain time frame and he achieved this on both occasions, I was extremely happy with the level of workmanship and the value they added to my property.
Lyn Banfield · BOS Construction South Melbourne
BOS Construction removed old flooring and installed new hardwood floor boards at our home. I found them to be exceptional in their workmanship and professionalism. They completed all work to a very high standard and were considerate in their approach. I will definitely use them again for future projects.
