Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Desktop Site Check?

A simple remote review of your property to see what’s possible — no home visit needed.

Is it really free?

Yes, completely free and obligation-free. Just helpful advice to get you started.

How accurate is it?

Very reliable for most homes. If trees or site details limit visibility, we’ll let you know if a visit would help.

What will I receive?

Friendly, practical advice on the right design for your block, how it fits your available space, where it should sit, what it may cost, and the easiest way to get approved.

What’s the difference between CDC and DA?

Most projects qualify for fast CDC approval. If your site falls outside CDC rules, we’ll guide you through a council DA instead.

Do I need an on-site visit?

Not at first. Most families start with the desktop check and only book a visit when they’re ready to move forward.
