Your next chapter might not need a new address.

Life changes. Your home should be allowed to change too.

Alterhouse helps Canterbury homeowners improve existing spaces, create room to grow and add separate dwellings for family, flexibility or income. We’ll help you find the right solution and guide you through what comes next.

Renovations

01

Improve the home you already have.

Not every home needs more space. Sometimes it simply needs to work better. You'd be surprised what moving one wall can do!

We renovate existing homes to improve layout, comfort, functionality and everyday living, from single-room upgrades through to full home transformations.

We can upgrade dwellings to be more efficient and compliant with healthy homes standards for tenancies.

Ideal for:


Kitchen and bathroom renovations


Interior alterations


Modernising older homes


Improving flow and functionality


Whole-home renovations

Extensions

02

Create space for what's next.

When you've outgrown your home but don't want to leave it, an extension can provide the extra room your family needs while keeping everything you already love about where you live.

Ideal for:


Additional bedrooms


Larger living spaces


Home offices


Master suites


Improved indoor-outdoor living

Additional Dwellings

03

More possibilities on the same property.

Create a separate space for family, guests or rental income, adding value to your property and giving you more options for the future. Close enough for Sunday dinner. Separate enough for Monday morning!

Homes for ageing parents
