Renovating or extending your Brisbane home is sometimes a tricky route to navigate. Especially if your home is within a Demolition Control Precinct, or falls under the Character Housing sectors. But with the right fore-knowledge of the rules and guidelines that Brisbane town planners will assess your project with, you can make it a relatively pain-free experience.
Most post-war-built Brisbane homes will be extended or renovated at some point in the future. Maybe your family is expanding and you need the extra space, or you are renovating in order to resell at a profit. Council knows this and has provided some guidelines that you should understand BEFORE you begin designing your extension.
