Our process at Cubitt’s is to make sure you know the cost to get you fully built and settled in.

Your project cost will include site preparation, environmental allowances and council contributions that will be unique to your block.

Some builders will not provide these costs, in order to make the ‘price’ look more attractive and get you to sign up quickly.

That's why there's no obligation or fee for us to come out, see your block, understand your purpose and get you a full cost for the project.

Building a Granny Flat with Cubitt’s usually takes around 12 weeks, however, you will also need to allow time for council approval, site visits and feasibility studies too. If possible, our council and drafting team will obtain a Complying Development Certificate (CDC), for your Granny Flat to help your project get started as quickly as possible. Your consultant will provide you with an accurate timeframe for completion of your Granny Flat and keep you updated on any changes with regular progress reports.

Yes, you’ll either need to gain Council approval or obtain a CDC (Complying Development Certificate) before you can build your Granny Flat. Fortunately, not having to deal with your local council is all part of the service when you build with Cubitt’s!

We’ve dealt with councils throughout New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory and can take care of your approvals wherever you are and get your project on the road as soon as possible.

Our speciality is major renovations, additions and Home Extensions. Due to the nature of these extensions we typically only work on projects costing $150,000 or more. Each of our extensions is unique and the cost of your project will depend on the work that’s being done, your location, the complexity of the project and a number of other factors. Our in-house quoting team will prepare a detailed upfront quote for you so you’ll know exactly how much your extension will cost with no hidden fees or costs.

The important thing to remember when planning your Home Extension is the value that it will add to your home. Our Home Extensions can add tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of value to your home, making them an investment in your future as well as an investment in your family’s comfort and space.

The space limit of 60m² (or 90m²  in the ACT) for Granny Flats only applies to the interior space. This means that any external areas like decks, garages, alfresco dining spaces and verandahs can be included in your Granny Flat design without encroaching on that 60m² limit. Our modern Granny Flat designs are spacious, comfortable and airy and will make you feel right at home. We’re also pleased to offer custom Granny Flat designs at no extra cost, so if you’ve got something particular in mind, we can make it happen.
