How We Upgraded an Alfredton Home to Suit Modern Living
A family living near the Ballarat Golf Club in central Alfredton contacted us after outgrowing their existing home. They had an older brick property built in the early 2000s and needed more living space for their growing family. Their block had reactive clay soil, which is common in this part of Alfredton, so the foundation work had to be designed carefully to avoid movement or cracking over time.
The homeowners wanted a larger open-plan living area, a modern kitchen upgrade, and better insulation to handle the cold Alfredton winters. We began with a full site inspection, reviewed their soil report, and managed the entire permit process through Ballarat City Council to ensure the extension met all local requirements.
Our team constructed a rear extension that blended perfectly with the existing home, matching brickwork, rooflines, and interior finishes. We installed upgraded insulation and energy-efficient windows to suit Alfredton’s climate, and redesigned the internal layout to create a more functional, family-friendly space.
The result was a warm, spacious extension that added significant value to their property and improved everyday living. The family appreciated the smooth communication, honest pricing, and the fact that we kept the project on schedule, despite working through some challenging winter weather.
This project is a strong example of how OYL Constructions supports local Alfredton residents with practical, high-quality building solutions tailored to the area’s conditions.
