A detailed step by step guide on what you can expect when you work with Makespace. 

01/
Initial Enquiry

Send us through what you are wanting to achieve. The more detail the better – it may be your home, an investment property, or a dream for the years to come. We will give a detailed response, right down to estimated budget. 

02/
Site Feasibility

Next, we conduct a site feasibility study where we come to site with you and work through the full scope of the job. From earthworks, services, consultants, building, landscaping and more, we then take this information away with us and develop a formal proposal for you. The cost for this service is $1,500 + travel. 

03/
Design + Materials

Make your build feel unique to you. Sit down with our team to go over swatches and samples to ensure you get the look you want. You can also choose from a range of upgrades including outdoor fireplaces, outdoor showers, pergola structures, decking, and more!

04/
Contract + Deposit

Once you are happy with everything we prepare a contract which includes our standard payment terms and the optional HALO guarantee, along with start dates and estimated completion dates.

A 10% deposit is required when the contract is signed.

05/
Architectural Stage

Our team begins work! Architects complete the detailed drawings alongside engineers for site specific items including wind zones and ground conditions. After around 4 weeks you are presented with a first draft set for review, any changes are made and then it is ready for consent submission.

06/
Consent

Generally 2 consents are required, one with our local authority for the buildings and then one with your land’s local authority for the site specific aspects. This process takes 4-8 weeks.

07/
Building Commences

You build is started! Frames are generally erected within 2-4 weeks and ready for your first visit to see your space/s come together! Most bespoke builds are completed within 16-20 weeks once building commences.

08/
Project Management

Our team manage your project all the way through and ensure they update you frequently. 

09/

Your modules are loaded on trucks and sent in your direction. Our construction team meets the units on site along with other trades to complete the install. Depending on the access and size of the job this can take 1 day – 4 weeks including landscaping works.
