Why renovating your existing home can be better than buying new

Our Tamahere-based builders are available to carry out everything from small renovations through to major home alterations and additions across the Waikato. Backed by more than 25 years of building experience, Craig Ryan and his hand-picked team can fully deliver the following services:

  • House extensions and additions

  • Complete kitchen renovations including replacements or alterations 

  • Bathroom renovations or new bathrooms 

  • Retaining walls and other significant outdoor building projects 

If you love where you live, but your house isn't quite working, then renovations could be the answer. 

It can be more cost-effective to renovate. In most cases, it is much cheaper to modify your existing home than to buy a new one. It is likely your home is perfect apart from a couple of things that can easily be addressed.

Perhaps you would like a second bathroom? Perhaps an extra room is needed for a new baby? Perhaps you would like to knock out a wall to make one spacious area instead of two separate spaces? In terms of price, increasing the function and flow of your home via renovation is highly recommended. 

Renovating gives you greater flexibility in reflecting your individual style 

To make a house truly feel like home, renovating an existing home can be much easier, and more satisfying, than finding a new home that exactly matches your requirements. You can keep the aspects of your home that you feel reflect you and your family. And then modify or modernise the rest.

Renovating your existing home offers more freedom and flexibility in terms of what you can do as you are only limited by your imagination. 

Renovations give you the chance to add more value to your home

Improving the financial value of an older, existing home is easier to do than adding value to a brand-new home. Putting in a new kitchen and bathroom are two improvements where it is likely you will make your money back instantly. And if your property doesn’t have a garage or shed, adding these can also significantly boost the value of your home.

Our Licensed Building Practitioners have expertise in undertaking home renovations.
