We had a great experience with 32 degrees for our second story addition .The work was completed quickly without sacrificing quality. Communication was excellent — they kept us informed at every step and were always responsive to questions or concerns. We’re very happy with the results and would recommend to others .

We chose 32 Degrees for our 2nd storey addition after doing some research, chatting with past clients, and checking out one of their completed projects. Looking back now that everything's finished, we're absolutely thrilled. Not just with the final result, but with the whole building experience. The workmanship is of high quality, and everyone we dealt with at 32 Degrees was friendly, professional and approachable. The project management and communication was outstanding from start to finish! They were always on top of things, communicated any small changes that invariably happen, and finished the project slightly ahead of schedule.

I had a few casual chats with different sub-contractors during the build, and it really struck me how highly they all spoke of 32 Degrees, even in private conversations when the team wasn't around. You can always learn a lot about someone by what people say about them 'behind their back', and in this case, it just confirmed we'd made the right choice.

I sincerely hope we never have to do another renovation.:) But if we did, I wouldn't hesitate for one moment about choosing 32 Degrees again.

My name is Henry and I am a professional bathroom and kitchen renovator based in Hornsby. I had been searching for a builder to extend my house and had contacted several local builders, but none could provide the accurate information I needed.

When I spoke with Alistair and 32 Degree, I immediately felt at ease. They clearly understood what they could do for me and provided all the information I required, particularly regarding timeframes and pricing. From design to completion, Victoria managed the entire process excellently. Every step was carefully guided, and all work was carried out properly and efficiently. Whenever I emailed or called, I received prompt responses, which made the whole experience smooth and stress-free.

The best part is that the majority of the work was completed in just two weeks! I also greatly appreciate that Danny repositioned the metal beam exactly where it was needed, allowing me to proceed with my ground-level renovation seamlessly.

Additionally, site manager Alex did an outstanding job, demonstrating professionalism and excellent management throughout the project. I understand how challenging complete a job of this size—if I could, I would give six stars!

From start to finish we have nothing but good things to say about this company. On time , clean and respectful to our neighbours. The team were always polite and tidy and the product they delivered us was excellent. We couldn’t be happier. The post build experience has been as good. 5 stars and happy to speak to any prospective client.

32Degrees Building delivered an exceptional experience from start to finish. They built a magnificent home for me and my family —crafted with care, precision, and attention to detail. Throughout the process, the team was responsive, timely, and professional. Their commitment to quality is second to none, and it truly shows in every aspect of the build. I couldn’t be happier with the result. I highly recommend to anyone seeking a builder who genuinely delivers on their promises.

We enlisted 32 degrees to do a 86sqm second floor addition as well as a small extension to the ground floor and enclosure of carport into a garage.
This was the first time embarking on a larger project. We approached 32 Degrees with a tender as we had plans drawn up. From the first contact with Beau and Alex for the initial quote, the process was very professional and timely. The quote has a fee, but is very detailed.
After deciding to proceed, the HIA fixed price contract was drawn up. All additions and changes were discussed in the pre-start meeting so all parties are aware. The buildertrend app also gives you direct access to the selections, schedule and contact with the team on the ground and in the office so you have complete oversight of what is happening.
The build was expected to take 14 weeks but was completed in 11. The entire process was very well organised, the team were very respectful of the neighbours and property. We had regular communication on site and on the app with Denny, Jonathan and Alex which gave us confidence in the progress when we could not visit. We had an unfortunate issue with the weather and some damage, however this was all covered and the house is better than new.
Back in the office, Mali, Victoria and Emily were across all the selections, schedules and happy to help out with any questions, no matter how basic they may have been.
To note, interior painting, flooring, landscaping are not included, but all of these details are in the contract and very transparent. Finally, the price was pretty much what we were expecting given the size of the addition (including a few additions which we had requested).
Overall, the best compliment we could give is that we would happily go through this process again with 32 Degrees!

32 degrees completed a first floor addition to my house. The planning and support from the beginning was outstanding and I am more than impressed by the time frame it took to complete. Everything went without a hitch and any queries were answered quickly by the team.They are there to support through all steps making the process as easy as could be. The workmanship is top quality and I would not hesitate to recommend 32 degrees.

32 Degrees Building completed an extension and internal renovation on our home. From the beginning of our journey we were impressed by their responsiveness and ability to manage the approval process for us. The office and project management team were always quick to respond to our queries and questions and the portal made it easy to communicate. They listened to any concerns and kept us up to date with the progress of our build. Maintenance items were attended to promptly and we’re so happy with the results!

32Degrees completed our second storey build in December 2024. The process was fast on time and on budget. All around, it was a great experience, particularly when you hear other people's horror stories! The team finished up in about 11 weeks which was an outstanding result, and we only needed to be out of the house for about 8 weeks. We're delighted with the results.

We had a really good building experience with 32 Degrees as they managed the renovation and extension of our home in Gladesville. Compared to other friends our build was quick, to deadline and there was barely a day that went by without someone on site. No building process is perfect or lacking stress but they were quick to address any concerns and we were very clear up front to ensure transparency of cost. We were very involved in the process and had to work hard to ensure open communication. The design process was consultative and we had minimal defects. We are incredibly pleased with the result and it has significantly changed our life as a family so our spaces now work for us.

We recently completed a first storey addition and ground floor renovation with 32 Degrees Building, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. The entire team was incredibly professional and patient throughout the process.

A big thank you to Alistair and his team for making this a very smooth process. Special shout out to Denny from the on-site team and Victoria in operations for their exceptional service. The team is very well-organised and always responsive to our questions and concerns.

The project was finished well within the targeted timeframe, which is a testament to their efficiency and dedication. Highly recommend 32 Degrees Building for their top-notch service and outstanding work!

Assisted us with the entire build from planning to build completion. Once the project started it took alot less time to complete than we had expected and to a very high quality. It was nice to leave our home and return back to a new bigger home without too much involvement from us as owners. Great company who adhere to the contract agreed upon.

I have put my 5 star rating into 5 parts of the build.

Design - unbelievably helpful and professional throughout the design process. They offered suggestions and guidance throughout the whole design process.
Administration - great effort by all, especially as they were in transit to move their office to a different location.
Progress on Build - this was driven by an app and if you weren't familiar with using their app, they were available to answer questions, offer support and guide you through the app. This was particularly helpful and appreciated when making adjustments.
Construction - the team of employees responsible for the construction were excellent. They were very organised and implemented all parts of the build efficiently. They are a credit to their company. Their communication was second to none as they always kept you informed.
Completion - our extension was completed on time and the quality was better than expedited

Things to know:-
Cost of things that you have no control over such as Council - do your homework
Additional cost - upgrades to improve the build - internal and external
End of construction - Additional cost such as painting on ground level - internal and external including new staircase and house structure and surroundings

We had a large scale reno with 32 Degrees including a first floor addition and ground floor demo and extension. We were beyond happy with how it turned out. The whole process was stress-free (which was opposite the experience of a lot of our friends who’ve done renos in the past). They completed the project without any delays. This was important since we moved out during the build so we were paying rent and mortgage at the same time, so we really appreciated that they delivered even ahead of time. Communication throughout the reno was great both from head office and team on the ground. There’s transparency on timelines and costs with their online portal which was easy to access anytime. Nothing is too difficult, no dramas across anything we raised to anyone – whether that’s Shannan or Victoria at the office, or Denny who managed the onsite team. We also had a great experience with their partners Sydney Drafting who managed our plans and DA submissions. The process was great, and the outcome even better.

The additional level we had built by 32 Degrees is one of the best property decisions we have ever made.
They were extremely professional from start to finish and I would have no reservation at recommending them to anyone looking for a first-class building company.

32 Degrees did a first floor addition + major ground floor renovation at our home over 2022-2023 (downstairs scope included knocking down & reframing internal walls, all new windows, bi-folds, new kitchen, lighting, + decking at front and back).

Overall, we had a great experience and are happy we chose 32 Degrees as our builders. They were fast and efficient - we'd thought the original timeline was optimistic, but the onsite team either met or surpassed the expectations on a weekly basis. A rarity in the industry where deadlines are often pushed out (and brilliant for us as our build was finished as expected).

Both the office staff (we worked primarily with Victoria and Liam) and the on-site team were always quick to come back on any queries that we had, and there was never any hesitation to answer any of our questions.

Post-build experience has also been great; the team have been responsive to the handful of minor warranty requests that we've had.

Thanks so much for working with us on our renovation! Incredibly happy with how everything turned out.

We had a fabulous experience with 32Degrees overall.

From meeting with Alistair right at the beginning of the process, working with the trades on site, right through to every team member that we had contact with.

A big shout out to Denny, Shannan and Victoria for always being extremely professional.
They were always available to answer queries and provide reassurance through the CoConstruct app, via phone and email.

Another big, big thank you to the roofers, who worked like machines to get our roof on before torrential rain was forecast.

The build was completed under the estimated timeframe which proves it can be done.

We would highly recommend 32 Degrees to do your renovation!

Really enjoyed the 32 degrees building experience. We got a lovely second floor addition built in a very fast time.

They kept the place clean, no skips, just regular visits with their rubbish removal truck that was great.

We lived in the property for the duration of the work, and they were always courteous and considerate.

They did lots of little extra things to go that extra mile, and put up with my daily questions.

Was a really great experience, and the result was better than I had imagined, so really pleased.

Also they were VERY cost competitive compared to many other quotes that I had received.

From Day 1 when I engaged 32 Degrees (Smart Home) via their website to the day my build was completed, I have nothing but positive things to say.

Everything was organise with precision. From the first consultation, the quote, the CDC Approvals, the architecture, the build, and the finish.

The best thing about the Smart Home Team is that the whole build was organise so perfectly. Every day the team would come and finish what was planned. I am given an app to track the progress and what will happen the next day, the next week, the next month.

There was never any doubt that they will not turn up or delay. Everything was well planned. Completed in 3 months as promised. Everybody was professional and friendly. That’s what you want from a builder.

My family and I are super happy with the build as it’s given us more space and it drastically increased the value of our home.

32 Degrees built our second story addition. From the first contact to the end we have been impressed with their costumer service and build quality. We’d recommend this company to complete your build. Their packages made the process easier to navigate and less daunting for a first time major home renovation and build.

Our dreamhome journey started with 32 degrees few years before meeting the team personally. I was following them in social media more than a year and after narrowing down our search to best team, we meet Alister.

From the phase of consultation to the completion - 32 Degrees performed their best. It was difficult circumstances due to pandemic. Our work was stopped for few months and we had to stay longer in construction site. However 32degrees have taken care for all the issues arising. All the staffs are amazing, friendly, polite, caring. We are so grateful for coming to any time of night for support when weather was bad. Thank you to whole team including Victoria, Denny, Liam, Michael, Nathan, Brandon, Shawn.

We knew 32 looks bit expensive when comparing, but quality of work, time management, good communication were our priority and we are happy for what they delivered to us. We definitely recommend to our family and friends and would love to work with you again in future if we need to. Huge Thank you 32degrees for giving us beautiful home.

We’ll review your information and contact you within 24–48 business hours to discuss your project and schedule an in-home consultation. During this meeting, we explore your objectives and provide expert recommendations tailored to your home and budget.

Now that we’ve completed your pre-site assessment and reviewed your enquiry, the next step is to arrange a time for one of our experienced building consultants to visit your home. During this consultation, we’ll discuss your goals, assess your property, and provide personalised advice on design, layout, and budget — helping you get the most value from your investment.

With years of experience specialising in second storey additions, we offer expert recommendations on materials, finishes, and functional layouts — and we’ll share relevant past projects that have turned many of our clients into raving fans.

What’s Covered During the Site Visit?

Our consultant will assess key site-specific factors, including:

🔌 Existing electricity, water, gas, and stormwater connections
🚪 Site access and ease of entry
📐 Land slope and property levels
🌳 Trees and surrounding landscaping

🔍 Want to learn more about the value of our consultations?
Read our blog: Why You Should Invest in a Paid Consultation for Your Build

Before proceeding, we recommend obtaining pre-approval from your lender so you have a clear understanding of your borrowing capacity.

Once you’ve confirmed that you’re ready to proceed with your detailed build cost estimate, we’ll arrange for you to sign our Preliminary Agreement.

This agreement confirms your intention to engage 32 Degrees Building as your builder and secures your place in our upcoming project schedule. It also allows us to begin coordinating with relevant authorities, consultants, and suppliers on your behalf — streamlining the process and ensuring everything is in place ahead of construction.

👉 Click here to learn more about Preliminary Costs.

If you don’t already have plans, our team can manage the entire design process for you — included as part of your Preliminary Agreement, if required.

We’ll arrange for one of our experienced draftspeople to visit your home, discuss your vision, and gather your project requirements. From there, we’ll develop custom plans based on your specifications and work closely with both you and the designer to ensure the plans align with your budget and overall build cost estimate.

When you are happy with the final design, we will then prepare the full architectural plans and supporting documentation required for submission of the Development Application and Construction Certificate OR Complying Development Certificate to your local council.

In our experience, obtaining council approval can take approximately 6-12 weeks.

Once your Development Application and Construction Certificate or Complying Development Certificate have been approved, we’ll schedule your prestart meeting with your Project Manager and prepare your HIA Residential Fixed Price Building Contract.

During the prestart meeting, your Project Manager will guide you through the construction process, explain what to expect at each stage, and answer any questions you may have to ensure you feel confident and informed before your build begins.

If you’re obtaining a construction loan, this is also the stage where you’ll submit your signed contract to your lender to finalise finance approval and confirm your progress payment schedule.

Alongside the contract, we will also request you to provide:

🏦 A Confirmation of Mortgage Settlement from your lender, or

💰 Evidence of your capacity to pay the full contract price (if self-funded).

This ensures all financial requirements are in place before construction begins.

Construction will commence on the date provided to you by your Project Manager. You’ll also receive access to your Build Portal, where you can:

📅 View your construction timeline and confirmed start date

Make and track your selections

💬 Communicate with your Project Manager and the team

🔄 Stay updated with the progress of your build in real time

This ensures full transparency and a smooth construction experience from day one.

🔧 3-Month Maintenance Warranty — Covering minor adjustments and fixes post-completion
🛠️ 2-Year Minor Defects Warranty — For any smaller issues that may arise
🏠 6-Year Structural Warranty — Providing long-term peace of mind for the major structural elements of your home

But our commitment to you doesn’t end there!

We’ll schedule a final meeting to ensure you are completely satisfied with the finished project and to gather your valuable feedback on our service.

Even after your build is complete, we remain available to assist you. If you encounter any issues or have questions regarding your warranties or the project, don’t hesitate to reach out — we’re always here to help.
