Short answer
With CIER Group Pty Ltd (BC104128, BP104444), kitchen and bathroom renovations typically take about 1–6 weeks on site, load-bearing wall removal 1–3 weeks on site (or about 3–8 weeks including engineer and permit), and extensions 12–20 weeks to build. We work across Perth metro, with a focus on Melville, Fremantle, Cockburn, Canning and the southern suburbs, with kitchens from $35,000 incl. GST, bathrooms from $20,000 incl. GST and extensions from about $120,000 incl. GST.
Indicative pricing only. Final pricing is confirmed once the full scope is set and, where needed, after engineering detail. Larger or structural projects may need a more detailed paid consultation after the free initial walk-through.

What happens before work starts
Where the structure changes, we arrange the structural engineer and the building permit before work starts. In WA the permit authority has 10 business days (certified) or 25 business days (uncertified) to decide a permit application.
