How a Knockdown Rebuild Duplex Works

A knockdown rebuild duplex turns one old home into two brand-new dwellings. Lvant Projects manages every step, from your free consultation through to handover, all on a fixed-price contract.

  1. Free consultation — Tell us about your block and what you want to achieve. We'll confirm whether it suits a duplex and give you honest, ballpark numbers before you spend a cent.
  2. Design & feasibility — Choose one of our proven designs or let us tailor one to your site. We assess the block, frontage and setbacks to make sure the design works.
  3. Plans & permits — We prepare the working drawings and manage town planning and building permits, so you don't have to chase councils or consultants.
  4. Knock down & build — We demolish the old home and build your two dwellings to a fixed-price contract, with regular updates the whole way through.
  5. Handover — You receive two brand-new, quality homes. Live in one and rent the other, rent both, or sell. The choice is yours.
  • Registered builder — Fully registered and insured in Victoria.
  • Fixed-price contracts — Know your number up front. No surprise variations.
  • One point of contact — One team from first call to final handover.
