Unlike  firms who charge an hourly rate or a price based on a percentage of the construction cost of a project, at AusDesign we provide a fixed price for our services before we proceed with your design.

As prices can vary depending upon the complexity of the design, it is not possible to be specific on pricing details until we have ascertained your particular requirements.
As a broad reference; for a 'normal' single storey home on a concrete slab or stumps, we are currently basing our prices on A$160.00/square. [ A$17.00/m2 ]

All our work including carports, extensions etc. is priced according to the particular project.
Although the inclusion of carports, verandahs, pergolas etc will have a bearing on the total price, for the purposes of budgeting or comparing prices, the above figures are calculated on the 'floor area' of the home.

Some situations where prices may increase, are, if there is a need forStructural Engineer details on aspects of your design; you are intending to build in a bushfire prone designated area; there is a State legislated requirement for an energy rating certificate; a soil test report is required or you are in a cyclone area. - Once again, after ascertaining your requirements and basic layout, we will be in a position to provide a detailed price for your particular project.
Our price will include the necessary drawings to lodge with your local council as part of your building application.

Included:
      Detailed floor plan, fully dimensioned and notated.   
      Elevations drawing showing all 4 elevations with details. 
      Section drawing showing material types, spacings etc.   
      Structural details as necessary including bracing details
      Bracing layout
      Foundation details
      Slab setout
      Site plan
      Structural notes with timber sizes and types, step details, smoke
          detectors, balustrading etc.
