We are very happy with the final outcome of our second storey extension! A seamless process, from start to finish. Completion was earlier than expected all whilst staying within budget. Travis was excellent to deal with and having a single point of contact made the process a lot easier. Highly recommend engaging the team at Capital Building Contractors for home extension projects.

We used Capital Building Contractors for our renovations and house extention. From the very start of the process they have been a pleasure to work with. All conversations were professional and every member knew exactly what they were talking about, with many years of experience in the construction industry.
From start to finish, Capital maintained their timeframe, even when faced with tighter COVID restrictions on the back end of the contract. Regular check-ins have to made throughout, ensuring that their service met an exceptional standard.
On behalf of my partner and I, we would like to thank

I was nervous about doing an upstairs extension and living in the house whilst it was done. I didn't want to lose the character of our federation house , didn't want the extension to look like an extension and didn't want to over capitalise . With Capital building they listened and we are pleased to say our extension looks amazing, like it was always part of the house. We have been living in our upstairs extension for eight weeks now and could not be happier . We started our extension the week of when CV19 started in Melbourne mid march, so much unknown for us and Capital building - the roof was

Great company to deal with. Capital helped us with design ideas that took our renovation to the next level. We wanted high end and excellent quality. They sure did deliver this for us. Our Californian bungalow in Malvern East went from almost original to a four bedroom 3 living area home. The build was quick and all the staff were wonderful to deal with. Thank you to all.

We are very happy with our decision to go with Capital and would definitely recommend them. Capital was actually recommended to us by a friend who had used Capital for their whole house renovation and extension, which gave us confidence from the start. Our project was also a full renovation and extension of our 1920s Californian bungalow and overall we are very happy with the result. When we approached Capital we already had plans drawn up by an architect and were at tender stage. We dealt with Travis throughout the whole process from tender to the completion of construction and found him to be

Starting with design, through to construction and the final product, I am over the moon with the result of my second storey extension. I am so happy I went to the trouble of thoroughly researching this company as it has more than paid off. The quality of of their work, their honesty and integrity, and the job finishing on budget, and well within the contract time was a relief. The builders and staff were amazing with some having gone far and beyond expectations - I would not hesitate in recommending Capital Builders.

Capital building finished out renovation 8 weeks ago and we could not be happier with the result. Their staff were all great to deal with and the process was seamless. We finished on time and on budget (my husband was thrilled with this). The quality of workmanship is excellent. I could not recommend these guys highly enough. Nothing was to much trouble and our end result was better than we expected. Thank you to you all. I look forward to using you again one day if Pete will ever let me leave this house.

Over many years I have employed Capital and also recommended them to family and friends. Peter and his crew do thorough, high quality work, starting with design - all of the way through construction, to completion and finishing touches. From my experience it is very rare to get a builder that is so honest and reliable.

Capital Builders put an upstairs on our house recently and we are extremely happy with the result. The frame went up incredibly quickly, the builders arrived at 7.30 sharp every day, worked hard all day and were clean and tidy and a pleasure to work with. Travis the Project Manager let us know through each stage of the build what to expect and was always willing and available to work through any questions we had. He is very personable and easy to get along with. We lived downstairs throughout the extension and did not have an dramas doing so.
I was very nervous doing a build having never done
