Our process. Step by step.
Ten defined steps from your first enquiry to handover. You always know where your project is, what happens next and what it costs, before it happens, not after.

Why the process matters
Cost blowouts are a process failure.
Most renovation horror stories follow the same script: a price given before anyone looked at the structure, a contract signed before the scope was defined, and variations arriving mid build because the questions got asked in week eight instead of week one.
Our process exists to ask every expensive question before you commit. The engineer looks before we price. The scope is written before the contract. Your selections are locked before construction starts. That discipline is exactly what lets us offer a fixed price and mean it.
It is the same process on every second storey addition, home extension, renovation and custom home we build.
Every expensive question, answered before you commit to anything.

Honest timeframes
How long it all takes.
Every project gets its own timeline once we have assessed your home, but these are the honest ranges we work to.
4–8 wks
Plans, engineering and council or certifier approval, managed by us while you get on with life.
2–4 wks
Final cost, contract review and your complete selections schedule, locked before site start.
12–24 wks
Depending on the size and complexity of the build. Larger projects with ground floor works run longer.
The ten steps
From enquiry to handover.
Three phases. Ten steps. At the end of each one you receive something concrete, an estimate, a set of plans, a contract, a completed home.
Phase 1 · Plan · Enquiry to approval
We review your enquiry, your site, your timeframe and your budget before we pick up the phone, so the first conversation is already about your project rather than our sales pitch. We contact you within 24 to 48 business hours to arrange a consultation.
You receive: a call from a builder, not a salesperson, and a consultation time.
Phase 2 · Prepare · Approval to site start
Phase 3 · Build · Site start to handover
Good to know

We had Strava Group complete major renovation works on our property and were blown away with the quality. The attention to detail and overall finish were amazing.

I highly recommend Strava Group to everyone great workmanship, reliable service, and I couldn’t be happier with the result.
I couldn't be happier with the work from Strava Group. From the beginning, Stav and the team was friendly, honest, and super easy to deal with.
We engaged Strava Group for a home extension and renovation. We are incredibly happy with the service and the results we achieved. From day one Stav and team where always willing to help with any issues we had and we loved that the main focus was as quality and longevity. Highly recommended
Had a great experience with Strava Group. The team was easy to deal with, super professional, and kept me in the loop the whole way through. They really listened to what I wanted and made the whole process feel smooth and stress-free.
