This whole building experience went so seamlessly and transparent it was a pleasure working with them. We knew all the requirements during the planning and design processes with no hidden unexpected costs. Being in the flight path did require additional funding , but that was our call. In the end the final product was something we were all proud of. Highly recommend the team from Granny Flat Approvals for any Granny Flat to be built anywhere in Australia. They are there to get you a result.

Having zero knowledge of the building industry and being cautious when choosing the right company, I would have never in my wildest thoughts have expected to be blessed with such an informative, knowledgeable, proactive, and most importantly, honest group of individuals. My experience with Granny Flat Approvals and the team including Faraj, Nick and Serge has been the absolute pinnacle of any client / provider relationship I have had in my entire life; the culture Serge breeds in his company is a testament to the outstanding service and quality his team provides. Thank you for making my experience such a positive and memorable one.

Faraj and the team have been excellent in there professional handling and friendless in my endeavors to build a granny flat, from design to needing a quick response to questions about the build and all the approvals I needed, so thanks for your patience and tolerance of my questions and changes needed. I would highly recommend these guys to anyone.

Faraj and team have been helpful all throughout the application process till approval, they handled all correspondence with engineers and assisted us in following up with council, turned a very stressful process to a very straight forward solution. They managed to push a difficult approval over the line and get the desired results we wanted. If your curious about getting a granny flat for your place i'd suggest have a chat with Faraj and team so they can give their honest opinion about your situation.

Serge is by far the most competent and knowledgable authority on granny flats – and I’ve spoken to quite a few granny flat builders, project managers etc. He’s definitely an essential asset if you want a smooth, seamless and risk free process to building a granny flat. Top guy on a personal level as well. Thanks Serge!!!

Hi Serge

Apart from my house, I have an existing freestanding studio under 60m2 which has a bedroom/living area, kitchen area (sink and bench only) and a separate ensuite, I think it is council approved but I’m sure only as a studio or games room (I’ve requested a search with them to check). I want to rent it for short stays. I’m in the Blue Mountains and council said in order for me to be able to rent it it must have a kitchen/laundry. Who do I consult first to advise what I need to do to it to get it approved as a granny flat (a certifier, council or a builder)?

  Hi Jonesy,
  
  The first thing to do is check if it’s Council approved and, if as a studio, you need to do no more. It is an occupiable structure under the Building Code of Australia. Council stated that it must have a kitchen and laundry; it already has a kitchen and bathroom, so adding a ‘laundry’ is a simple matter of adding a drain hole for the washing machine- either in the kitchen or bathroom I expect.
  If it is not approved for habitable purposes (Cass 1a structure), and because 99% of the Blue Mountains is a Heritage/Conservation Area, you’ll need to seek retrospective DA Approval from Blue Mountains City Council for the use of the structure for habitable purposes.
