Services
Built around the project, not a package
Each client has unique needs, so our services are designed around the specific demands of your project — whether it’s a second storey addition or a delicate renovation. Our team combines traditional technique with modern method to deliver work that stands apart in quality and durability.
Extensions
Ground Floor Extensions
Extending out into the yard to add living, dining and kitchen space, with new footings, a new roofline and a proper tie-in to the existing house. We can start at the design and planning stage or pick up completed architectural plans.
Extensions
Second Storey Extensions
Adding a full or partial upper level where the block has no room to extend out. Structural assessment, reinforcement of existing footings and framing, staircase integration and roofline matching, managed from planning through to handover.
Home Renovations
Major and full-house renovations: reworking the floor plan, removing structural walls, replacing services and finishing the whole house to one standard. We retain the character of the original property while bringing the layout up to how you live now.
Custom Builds & New Homes
Your home should reflect your personal style and practical needs. Our custom home building service begins with understanding your vision and ends with handing over the keys. We manage every aspect, from initial design to the final touches.
Outdoor Living & Decking
Transform your outdoor space with a custom-designed alfresco area, substantial outdoor extension or complete deck rebuild. JTD specialises in comprehensive outdoor construction projects, delivering quality workmanship from initial planning through to completion.
Our process
A collaborative journey, in three phases
Our process is tailored to turn your vision into reality with precision and transparency at every step.
01 — Pre-construction
The journey begins with your vision. Thorough planning, aligned with your expectations and budget, with constant monitoring and interaction so every aspect of the design meets the outcome you want. We work to secure the best value without compromising quality.
02 — Construction
With the blueprint in hand, our team and trusted subcontractors bring the project to life. Accountability is key, so we maintain rigorous quality control and timeline management while you relax and anticipate the finished product.
03 — Post-construction
The final phase marks the beginning of your new chapter. Detailed site cleanup, systems training and final inspections, culminating in a comprehensive walk-through to ensure every detail resonates with your satisfaction.
