Builder in Hawthorn
Home additions, renovations and repairs across Hawthorn and the surrounding inner east, from a registered builder with over forty years in Melbourne housing.
PA Building Group · Hawthorn
Building into Hawthorn’s housing stock.
Hawthorn is characterised by Edwardian and Federation homes on established, leafy streets. Houses like these are why most of our work happens at the rear: the street frontage is worth keeping, and everything behind it usually needs rethinking.
We take on additions, renovations, kitchens and bathrooms, outdoor living areas and ongoing maintenance across Hawthorn. Where a heritage or neighbourhood character overlay applies, we handle the planning application and council liaison rather than handing it back to you.
Every job starts the same way: we look at the house, tell you honestly what’s realistic for your budget, and put an itemised quote in writing.
