Complete builders & renovations in Frankston

HRE Built works across Frankston, Frankston South and Frankston North on renovations, extensions and new homes. Coastal conditions here change how a house should be built, and we build for that from the outset.

Frankston’s housing ranges from beach-side weatherboards and mid-century brick homes to substantial properties on the elevated Frankston South blocks. Renovation briefs usually centre on light, outlook and connecting living areas to the outdoors.

Salt air is unforgiving. Fixings, flashings, external hardware and glazing all need to be specified for a coastal environment, and skipping that is why coastal renovations start failing within a few years.

03

04

Construction and handover

Local knowledge

Building in Frankston, 3199

Coastal exposure
Near-beach sites need corrosion-resistant fixings, appropriate Colorbond grades and marine-suitable hardware. It is specified in the contract, not left to whatever arrives on site.
Sandy soils near the foreshore
Sand profiles change footing and retaining design. Site classification is done before structural pricing so the slab detail is right.
Elevated Frankston South blocks
Steep sites reward split-level planning and elevated decks — but they need surveying, retaining and stormwater design costed honestly at the start.

Builders & Renovations in Frankston — frequently asked questions

How much does a renovation or extension cost in Frankston?
Cost depends on size, structural work, site access and finish level rather than the suburb itself. After an on-site measure in Frankston we issue a written fixed-price quote broken into line items, so you can see exactly what each part of the job costs and adjust the scope before signing.
Do you handle Frankston City Council permits and paperwork?
Yes. We prepare and lodge building permit documentation with Frankston City Council, check zoning, setbacks and any overlays that apply to your block, and arrange engineering, soil reports and energy ratings as part of the pre-construction stage.
How long will a Frankston project take?
Kitchen and bathroom renovations usually run four to eight weeks on site. Ground-floor extensions typically take four to six months, and new custom homes nine to sixteen months. Design, engineering and permits normally add three to six months before construction starts.
Can we keep living in the house during the build?
In most renovation and extension projects, yes. We stage the work, dust-seal the construction zone, protect access paths and keep a working kitchen or bathroom available wherever the scope allows. Where that is not possible we tell you before you sign, not halfway through.
Are you registered and insured?
Yes. HRE Built works as a registered building practitioner under the National Construction Code and Victorian building regulations, carries domestic building insurance on applicable residential contracts, plus public liability and workers’ compensation cover.
