JoineryVictorian Restoration & Extension — Melbourne
Every Victorian terrace holds its original structure beneath layers of renovation. We read the evidence — ghost marks on plaster, shadow lines on floors, original nail patterns in timber — and restore what was always there.

Full restoration + rear extension · 2024
Single-fronted weatherboard
Heritage overlay + kitchen rebuild · 2024
Converted terrace
Ceiling reinstatement + facade repair · 2023
Original cast iron firebox, painted over six times. Marble surround cracked at hearth.
We hold a current domestic builder licence, heritage building accreditation, and relationships with every council planner in Melbourne's inner north. You deal with one firm from permit to handover.
We prepare and lodge permit applications with Yarra, Darebin, and Moreland councils. Our documentation passes first review at a rate of 94%.
Every extension meets current National Construction Code requirements — structural, thermal, waterproofing — without compromising original fabric.
Rear extensions built in the same joinery tradition as the original house — not glass boxes bolted on, but considered additions that earn their place.
Working with an architect? We're comfortable reading and building from architectural drawings, and we'll flag constructability issues before they become site problems.
List members book first. We take on eight new projects per quarter — no more — to maintain the standard of work that makes our clients refer us to their neighbours.
