Welcome to HRE Built Pty Ltd
Complete builders & renovations in Glen Waverley
Glen Waverley is one of Melbourne’s strongest suburbs for knockdown rebuilds and premium renovations, and HRE Built works right across it — from the school-zone streets near Kingsway to the quieter pockets bordering Wheelers Hill.
Land value here justifies building properly. Most projects are either a full custom home replacing a 1960s or 1970s brick veneer, or a substantial renovation with a second-storey addition to gain bedrooms and a study without giving up backyard.
Glen Waverley buyers expect a high standard of finish, so we spend real time on the detail — joinery set-out, tiling courses, glazing performance and lighting design — and we document it in the contract instead of leaving it as an allowance.

Local knowledge
Building in Glen Waverley, 3150
Knockdown rebuilds
Demolition, service disconnection, asbestos assessment on pre-1990 homes and a fresh soil report all sit in the pre-construction stage. We price these as line items, not as a lump sum surprise.
Second-storey additions
Adding upstairs to an older Monash brick-veneer home means checking footings and often underpinning or re-stumping. The structural assessment happens before the design is locked in.
Monash overlays and neighbourhood character
Parts of Glen Waverley sit under neighbourhood character and vegetation controls. We check them at feasibility stage so drawings do not need reworking later.

Builders & Renovations in Glen Waverley — frequently asked questions
How much does a renovation or extension cost in Glen Waverley?
Cost depends on size, structural work, site access and finish level rather than the suburb itself. After an on-site measure in Glen Waverley 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 the City of Monash permits and paperwork?
Yes. We prepare and lodge building permit documentation with the City of Monash, 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 Glen Waverley 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.
