A granny flat in Sydney typically takes anywhere between 12-15 weeks to complete, assuming design and other approvals are completed. However it’s important to consider a number of variables that can impact completion time, including the size and complexity of the project, materials used, and the efficiency of communication of all parties involved.

A small, prefabricated granny flat granny flat can be built within a few weeks, but a larger, custom project can take several months depending on the above factors mentioned. This is simply because of the additional requirement of resources and attention.

When it comes to kitchen renovations, timing is a common concern for homeowners. The good news is that the duration of a kitchen renovation project can be managed with the right planning and communication. 

While every renovation project is unique, a typical kitchen renovation takes around 4-6 weeks to complete. This includes time for design and planning, selecting materials, and construction work. Factors that can impact the timeline include the size and complexity of the project, as well as unforeseen issues that may arise during the renovation process. 

That's why it's important to work with an experienced contractor like Armour Building who can help you create a realistic timeline and provide updates along the way. By prioritizing communication and partnering with the right team, you can achieve a beautiful, functional kitchen in a reasonable timeframe.

The short answer - yes, you can build a granny flat in Sydney without requiring traditional approval from the local council, provided the home and land belongs to you. Thanks to an update in NSW legislation about a decade ago, you can now obtain what’s called a Complying Development Certificate (CDC), which is a fast-tracked approval process, which is akin to gaining approval for let’s say, a swimming pool or removing a tree.

The cost of a kitchen or bathroom renovation can vary widely depending on factors such as the size of the space, the extent of the renovation, and the materials used. 

A basic renovation can cost around $10,000, while a high-end renovation could cost $50,000 or more.

In general, a kitchen renovation tends to be more expensive than a bathroom renovation due to the larger size of the space and the need for more materials and appliances. Additionally, factors such as the complexity of the design, the quality of the materials, and the contractor's fees can all impact the final cost of a renovation project. 

It's important to work with an experienced contractor like Armour Building who can provide you with a detailed cost estimate based on your specific project requirements and budget.
