Benefits of a Knock Down Rebuild

SAME GREAT LOCATION

One of the biggest advantages of a knock down rebuild is convenience. This means staying in close proximity to all the activities and amenities that make your current area so enjoyable. Access to friends, family, educational facilities and all your favourite recreational hot spots are going to remain unchanged.

COST-EFFECTIVE

Sustainability and eco-friendly design is at the heart of every Unique Built home design. A knock down rebuild home design allows you to incorporate the very latest in energy efficient technologies throughout your home, resulting in reduced energy consumption and lower running costs.

UNIQUELY YOURS

From the design, layout, materials, colour scheme and everything in between, you get to have the home you have always dreamed of, built for you from the ground up. A home that you will be proud to call your own and one that meets your budget requirements.

CLEAN SLATE

Making the decision to have your existing home dismantled, gives you the opportunity to abolish any damaged infrastructure that may come about as a result of old age. Starting from scratch will ensure that your house’s new foundations are able to support the load of the new home design that you wish to construct.

Knock Down Rebuild Process

1) INITIAL CONSULTATION

The initial step to securing your new home involves a consultation with our design team. During this time, key aspects of your build will be discussed including your budget, type of block that you wish to construct on, and style of home.

2) SITE ASSESSMENT & DEVELOPMENT

We perform a full onsite inspection of your nominated block, which includes soil testing and surveying. Depending on the outcome of the inspection and discussions that took place at your initial consultation, a cost estimate will be issued to you.

3) BUILDING CONTRACT & DESIGN

A House Industry Association (HIA) contract is drafted, along with full documentation outlining the details of your build. Once the contract has been agreed upon and signed, our designers will guide you through the steps involved in selecting your desired colour scheme, lighting, fittings and fixtures.

4) COUNCIL APPROVAL & DEMOLITION

All required council approvals for the build are sought using a skilled building certifier to ensure that everything is completed in a timely fashion and without issue. Once approval has been secured, Unique Built handles all demolition tasks, ensuring maximum efficiency.

5) CONSTRUCTION

During the construction of your new home, you will receive regular updates from your designated Unique Built contact.

6) COMPLETION & HANDOVER

At the conclusion of your new home build, it’s almost time for you to move in. An appointment will be scheduled with your site manager, where an onsite inspection will be conducted to ensure that you are happy with everything. 90 days after this, Unique Built will arrange a final onsite inspection to check in with you and verify that you are completely satisfied with your new home.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to have an existing home demolished?

This is dependent on a number of factors, including the size of the home to be demolished and the job’s intricacy. Most home demolitions cost in the vicinity of $30,000 – 40,000.

The cost of having your existing home demolished is significantly less than the cost of purchasing a new vacant block of land, where you’ll be required to pay a variety of fees and charges, as well as all of the additional costs associated with selling your existing home, such as real estate agent fees, site inspection, advertising, and so on.

We can offer you with an accurate cost estimate for having your old property knocked down because of our extensive expertise and excellent knowledge of knock down rebuilds at Unique Built. To learn more, contact one of our experts.

Is demolish and rebuild slower than simply building on another block of land?

Only if you hire a home builder who lacks the requisite experience for such a job. Unique Built ensures that the demolition process is seamlessly integrated into the entire development process of your new home, so it has no discernible influence on the overall build schedule.

Are existing features such as swimming pools affected by a demolition?

You have ultimate control over what you want removed or retained when we discuss the demolition procedure with you.

The contractor will be able to offer you with all of the information you require about the demolition, including any existing features that may be impacted.

How long does it take to demolish an existing home?

Most homes take between four and six weeks to demolish, clear, and prepare to commence construction on your new dream home.

Advice for living elsewhere while the new home is being built

Always plan ahead of time. Make sure you book your substitute lodging well in advance of the deadline for moving out of your current residence. If you don’t do so, your rates may skyrocket.

Do you provide guarantees on when each knock down rebuild home will be completed?

While we have a wealth of experience with knockdown rebuilds and give our clients full assurances, such as fixed price building contracts and a 25-year structural warranty on all homes built, we cannot guarantee when the new home will be completed.

For reference, the houses that we build typically take between 20 and 38 weeks to complete, but because most of the homes we build are on the larger size of the spectrum, 9-12 months is more common.

Are you able to guide me on creating the best possible home design for my block?

Regardless of the size or style of block of land you want to build on, including sloping blocks, narrow plots, we have an in-house team of talented home design professionals who can take your initial ideas and thoughts and turn them into the ideal dream home.

Do you stay in touch with clients throughout the entire build process?

We certainly do. As knock down rebuild specialists, we understand that our customers recall their customer service experience every bit as clearly as they do their home design.

Client communication is an essential component of our construction process, and it is an absolute priority that all customers are kept up to date on the progress of their outstanding new home design.

We’re only ever a phone call away. If you have any questions concerning any aspect of your dream home build, simply phone us.

Does home demolition require special council permission?

Yes. Obtaining the requisite demolition licence and local council approvals might take up to two weeks or more, therefore it’s best to do so as soon as possible.
