Home, Kitchen, Laundry & Garage Renovations in Fitzroy
Fitzroy’s Victorian terraces and warehouse conversions sit under strict heritage controls. HAB Home Improvements renovates kitchens, laundries, homes and garages across Fitzroy within council requirements.
Laundry Renovation in Fitzroy
Many Fitzroy terraces have a laundry squeezed into a narrow rear lean-to or converted outbuilding, often with ageing plumbing and poor ventilation. We reconfigure these into properly functioning spaces, frequently combining the laundry with rear-entry storage given how little spare room these blocks typically offer. See our laundry work: Laundry Renovations.
Kitchen Renovation in Fitzroy
Fitzroy kitchens commonly sit in a rear addition, and many homeowners are looking to replace a dated 1980s or 1990s renovation with something better suited to how the home is used now — more storage, better light, and a stronger connection to any courtyard or rear yard. Because many Fitzroy homes are within a heritage overlay, our kitchen extensions are designed to sit unobtrusively behind the original dwelling, keeping any visible changes minimal from the street while maximising what the new space delivers day to day. Full details: Kitchen Renovations.
Garage Transformation in Fitzroy
Where a Fitzroy property has rear lane access and an existing garage or outbuilding, that space is often one of the few opportunities to add genuinely new usable area without touching the heritage-protected main dwelling. We convert these into studios, offices or additional living space, handling structural and services work within Yarra Council’s requirements. See our approach: Garage Transformations.
Home Renovation in Fitzroy
Home renovation projects in Fitzroy are almost always about the rear of the property — a considered extension that adds living space and improves natural light without altering the street-facing facade that heritage controls protect. We manage council heritage applications alongside the build itself, and focus design decisions on opening up circulation and outdoor connection within what are often quite compact original floorplans.
