How To Renovate Your Sydney Apartment With The Exact Upgrades You Want

Like many people who have an older apartment in Sydney, perhaps you’re feeling frustrated (even embarrassed) about certain features that are out of date or wearing out… and would like advice on the best way to renovate.

It could be that you’re running out of room… and you’d like to see what you can do to optimise space and functionality within your building’s restrictions.

Perhaps you’d like to upgrade the comforts of your Sydney apartment, so everything looks and feels brand new again?

You’re not alone. Lots of Sydney residents are looking for ways to upgrade their apartment without moving. Yet like them, you may also have some questions and concerns about renovating.

Not All Builders Can Do Apartment Renovations

Renovating an apartment in Sunshine Coast is not like renovating a house.

From the extra planning, neighbourhood and body corporate negotiations and structural limitations - everything needs to be done just right.

That’s why there’s only a handful of builders in Queensland’s Sunshine Coast registered to do this sort of work.

Building authorities realise (particularly after the Opal Tower debacle) the amount of experience required to execute structural work.

For instance, a simple project like opening up a kitchen by knocking down a wall and replacing it with an island bench can impact the structural integrity of the building - and therefore all the residents living in the apartment complex.

That’s why there’s detailed documentation required, and lodgements at every step, to ensure everything is done properly.

It’s also why to renovate an apartment, a builder needs to be able to show they have worked on class 2 buildings (multi-storey, multi-unit apartment blocks or mix-use developments like shops and apartments) for a period of 5-10 years.

Like many apartment owners…

Perhaps You’re Concerned About Some of These Extra Challenges & Considerations

Worried about getting body corporate approval… and wish you could find a Sydney builder who is experienced in the tricky nuances of negotiating with committees so they gladly approve the upgrades you want?

Nervous about upsetting your neighbours… and want a builder who is considerate and knows how to keep dust and noise to a minimum, protect common areas and remove rubbish efficiently?

Concerned about structural limitations… and want a builder who knows how to optimise space and functionality within your building’s restrictions?

Unsure what’s possible… and want an Sydney builder who specialises in overcoming limited space and access to help you get the exact upgrades you want?

Worried you’ll spend all this time and money and feel disappointed… and want a builder who really listens to your vision and gives practical tips to enhance your ideas, so you get the exact outcome you want without overcapitalising?

Nervous about how long it will take… and want a builder who sets and sticks to a detailed plan, and keeps you in the loop with a daily report and photos?

Afraid the price will increase (with hidden variations)… and want a builder who takes time to cost things properly and gives you a fair, firm price?

Concerned about the quality of work… and want a Sydney apartment renovation builder with meticulous workmanship so your extension looks better and lasts longer?

If any of these things are weighing on your mind, you’re not alone. That’s why we’ve created a Discovery Call to answer your questions and help your apartment renovation go smoothly from start to finish.

How To Confidently Choose The Right Sydney Apartment Renovation Builder

A Google search will introduce you to dozens of Sydney builders who advertise renovation services. Most appear to be similar in qualifications, experience, and price. So it can be hard to choose. Here are some of the things we differently to other Sydney builders (and therefore may be the right choice for your home renovation):

Sydney Apartment Renovation Specialists

While most Sydney Suburbs builders can perform renovation work, very few have the understanding or experience to overcome the challenges of renovating an apartment.

The team at Nomad Built has years of experience navigating the complexities of apartment renovations including negotiating with body corporate committees, overcoming structural, space and access limitations, keeping noise and dust to a minimum, and giving you the exact upgrades you want – on schedule and budget.

A Renovation That Makes The Most Of Your Apartment

Too many apartment renovations focus on mere cosmetic updates without considering the full potential of your apartment. While new cabinets, carpets and paint may make your apartment look a little fresher, these things miss the opportunity to add space, functionality, and comforts that improve your life. Granted, you may not have the same flexibility as you would when renovating a stand-alone house in Sydney. However, you often have more options than many builders would have you believe.

The team at Nomad Built takes time to understand your vision and assess your Sydney property. Then we create a plan to optimise the space, functionality, and feel (within your building’s limitations) so you get the exact upgrades you’ve always wanted, with luxuries that make your apartment feel like a dream holiday home.

Proper Planning For Premium Results

In their eagerness to get building, too many other companies neglect the foundational steps of planning. But this often results in compromises in trades and supplies (due to availability), variations in pricing (always up), and time and money wasted redesigning and rectifying work.

We prefer to follow the ‘measure twice, cut once’ philosophy and ensure we get the planning right from the start. We take time to understand your vision and give recommendations to optimise your design for a better outcome at a lower cost. We lock in all trades and supplies to ensure availability and pricing certainty. And we follow a checklist-driven process, so every step runs smoothly and on time.

Perfect Your Vision In 3D Before You Build

It can be difficult to know exactly what your 2-dimensional, paper design will look like when it’s built. “How much extra space will these changes create, what paint colours will suit best, and how will everything flow together?”

Our 3D Renders allow you to ‘walk through’ your renovation so you can see what everything looks like before building begins. Make something bigger, change the colour, and even adjust the layout at the push of a button. This gives you the confidence to sign off on your design knowing it’s exactly what you want.

Timesaving, Confusion-Busting Advice

With thousands of design elements including colours, fixtures, and fittings available, it can be time-consuming and confusing to choose. Some builders force you to pick from such a limited range that you can’t get what you really want. Others leave you to search online and figure it all out yourself.

Our experienced team will guide you through our Selection Checklist which simplifies your choices into logical categories. We then take time to help you compare your options. And we’ll tap into our trusted network to get you the best prices and certain delivery timeframes.

The Results You Want -- On Schedule And Budget

Renovating your Sydney apartment can be a complicated process involving dozens of professional services (architect, engineer), local council and authority officials, and trades (carpenter, tiler, plumber, electrician). Not to mention your body corporate and nearby neighbours to negotiate with. That’s a lot to keep track of. And one miscommunication or mistake can set you back weeks and add thousands to your costs.

Your Nomad Built Project Manager will liaise with all parties to ensure clear, accurate communication. And your Site Supervisor will oversee all deliveries (so the right materials are onsite in time), workmanship (making sure trades meet our uncompromising expectations), and noise and dust (ensuring your neighbours are looked after throughout the renovation).

An Eye (And Attitude) For Detail

Too many builders (and their tradies) are in a rush to finish so they can get to the next job. While efficiency is important, it’s too often achieved at the expense of quality. And is often undone by work that has to be redone.

We believe in doing things right the first time. That way, both our clients and our team, can be confident in the (structural) quality and proud of the (aesthetic) result.

Honesty and Integrity (Even When It’s Not Popular)

Too many renovators say, “Yeah, we can do that,” only to disappoint their clients with bad news after the contract is signed. Or they lure unsuspecting customers with a low price that constantly changes through variations.

Although people sometimes find it hard to hear, we tell the truth – always. If something can’t be done, we’ll tell you (and give you a choice of alternatives). And our pricing is honest, transparent, and accurate so you can feel confident about what you’ll get and how much it will cost.

Enjoy The Process, Love The Result

Although renovating is supposed to be exciting, many people find it stressful, with months of last-minute changes, uncomfortable conversations, and disappointments. But it doesn’t need to be.

We have the proven systems and experienced oversight to ensure everything goes as smoothly as possible (including council and body corporate approval). We have the longstanding team to deliver meticulous workmanship we can all feel proud about -- on schedule and budget. And we have the old-fashioned values that ensure you enjoy the process and love the result.
