How much do basement conversions cost?

Refresh Renovations Consultants have carried out basement conversions starting from approximately $65,000*. However, there are many factors within a basement conversion that could lead to the project costing much more - things such as council costs, waterproofing, soundproofing and structural considerations (to name a few). Of course, this ballpark cost estimate does not reflect the work involved in excavating and building a new basement. When you work with Refresh, a Renovation Consultant will be able to provide you with a cost estimate before any construction begins. If you are working within a limited budget, a consultant will also be able to offer creative, cost-effective solutions - without sacrificing on the quality of your conversion.

What are some important things to consider when converting a basement?

During the design stage of your conversion, your consultant will walk you through all of the important considerations. This will likely include access to the basement, soundproofing, insulation, plumbing, layout, council requirements and, importantly, your specifications and stylistic preferences. To gain a deeper understanding of the type of works involved within a basement conversion, see this basement conversion Refresh carried out. 

How does Refresh’s renovation process work?

Refresh provides a thorough end-to-end renovation service designed to alleviate the stressful aspects typically associated with home renovations. When you work with Refresh, you won’t need to manage multiple trades, figure out costs on your own or supervise the quality of design implementation. A Renovation Consultant will take care of all of this for you and will be your one point of contact from the planning stage through to project completion.

Your Style,
Your Budget,
Our Expertise

Refresh®’s process supports a bespoke design and build: a renovation tailored to your lifestyle requirements and taste. Your local Old Home & Villa Renovations renovation consultant will manage every aspect for you - working to keep everything on track.

Step 1

Initial Consultation

The first thing your Old Home & Villa Renovations renovation consultant will want to know is what it is that you want to achieve through your home renovation. In this initial consultation, you can throw all of your ideas on the table - your consultant will then tailor them to your property and budget.

Step 2

Scoping and Feasibility

With a clear understanding of your renovation goals, your Old Home & Villa Renovations consultant can arrange for an architectural concept to be drawn up. This allows your Old Home & Villa Renovations consultant to assess whether or not your ideas are feasible, and allows you to point out any changes you would like in the design - before any work begins.

Step 3

Detailed Planning and Costing

Next, working drawings will be developed. These will take into account the engineering, structural, design and aesthetic decisions you have made. If you would like to make any further changes, now is the time to do so. From there, your Old Home & Villa Renovations consultant will present you with a fixed-quote as well as a contract.

Step 4

Build Stage

Finally, you get to witness your project transition from the page to your property! Every aspect of the build will be managed for you, allowing you to carry on with your everyday life. Your Old Home & Villa Renovations consultant will do everything in their power to keep your project on schedule so that it can be completed within a set timeframe and budget.

Step 5

Project Completion

The final stage is for your local Old Home & Villa Renovations consultant to ensure that all Council documentation is completed and you have the necessary Code of Compliance documentation. Congratulations – your renovation is complete!

Bring your dream renovation to life

Our expert team can manage all aspects of your Old Home & Villa Renovations project from planning to build and everything in between
