Does anyone know of good builders/renovators in the Brisbane Logan area? Looking to convert the downstairs of a highset. We are looking at:
- Plumbing for laundry
- Electrical wiring
- Tiling
- Adding a kitchen
- Converting the garage doors to sliders
- Gyprocking
- Painting
Does anyone know if you require council approval to do this?
What can be done in downstairs of a Queenslander, assuming you have legal height in place?
Can you put a kitchen and bedrooms?
Do you have to put insulation on side walls?
Dual living and occupancy is legal, hence I would you don't need firerating the 2 floors, because the assumption is the both floors will be tenant under 1 agreement.
Can you allow split meter for the 2 floors?
For most highset homes, if you look up to the ceiling from the ground floor, you'll see the wooden support beams. There was another SS post, a Building inspector advised the buyer that 2.4m is measured from ground to the floorboard of upper level, NOT to first point of the support wooden beams.
the 2.4m requirement is for bedroom/habitat rooms. I believe for lounge, bathroom, laundry it is not a requirement.
