Character Home Renovations
We love renovating character homes
Every character home renovation is unique and special and it’s an honour to be entrusted with a slice of our state’s history. There’s also a sense of achievement that comes from preserving all the history and charm of a character home, while simultaneously creating beautiful new contemporary spaces to be enjoyed by the people who live there.
Bringing modern living and character together
Cottage homes and federation homes are full of personality and are stunning to look at, but may lack many of the modern family living ‘must haves’ such as open plan living, master retreats, walk-in wardrobes and spacious bathrooms and kitchens.
Dale Alcock Home Improvement are specialists in character home renovations and have helped numerous Perth families bring modern living into their much-loved older homes.
Trust us with your character home renovation
- Our complete end-to-end design and construction service ensures that any identified ‘older home’ requirements are clearly noted and communicated throughout the renovation process. Dealing with one company for design and construction minimises the risk of important communication being lost or missed.
- Our extensive experience with council regulations and the documentation associated with heritage requirements, may help speed up the planning and approval process.
- We have renovated a large number of character homes and therefore understand the idiosyncrasies and modified-processes required for carrying out construction work on older homes
- We have relationships with specialist character home suppliers to help match outdated features such as ceiling roses and cornices
- We utilise in-house and external specialist trades to ensure that the unique elements of the original home that must be retained or that you’d like to retain, are preserved and enhanced
