Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a renovation and a remodel?
The terms “renovation” and “remodel” are often used interchangeably, but they refer to different types of home improvement work. A renovation typically involves restoring or updating existing structures or finishes without changing the layout or purpose of a space. For example, replacing kitchen cabinets, repainting walls, retiling a bathroom, or upgrading fixtures are all considered renovations. The original layout remains the same, but surfaces and features are improved or modernised.
On the other hand, a remodel usually refers to altering the structure, layout, or purpose of a room. This could include knocking down or adding walls, changing the floor plan, converting a garage into a living space, or transforming a bedroom into an ensuite. Remodels are often more complex and expensive than renovations because they may require new plumbing, electrical work, and structural changes, along with council approvals or building permits.
Understanding the difference is important when planning a project, as it affects timelines, costs, and legal requirements.
How long does a typical home renovation take?
Renovation timelines vary depending on the size and complexity of the project. Minor updates, like painting or flooring, may take a few days to two weeks. A full bathroom or kitchen renovation can last three to six weeks, depending on materials and trades involved. Larger projects, such as home extensions or structural changes, may take several months, especially if council approvals are needed. Unexpected issues, such as weather delays or product shortages, can also affect the schedule.
Do I need council approval for home renovations in Australia?
Council approval isn’t always required, but structural work, extensions, or any changes to plumbing or electrical systems typically are. Cosmetic changes like painting, flooring, or updating cabinetry usually don’t need permission. Local council regulations vary, and you may need a Development Application (DA) or a Complying Development Certificate (CDC). It’s important to check with your local council or speak with a licensed builder or certifier early in the planning process to avoid legal issues or delays later on.
