A Seamless Building Process

  • 1) Site Visit & Consultation

    We meet you on-site to discuss your vision, review plans, and understand the project’s scope. This initial meeting is free and helps us get aligned early.

  • 2) Detailed Cost Estimate

    We prepare a transparent, itemised cost estimate covering all materials, labour, and margins. It’s a detailed breakdown so you know exactly where your investment goes.

  • 3) Refining Scope & Budget

    Together, we fine-tune the project to meet your budget and priorities. A clear, collaborative process that keeps everything realistic and achievable.

  • 4) Contract & Approvals

    Once the scope and pricing are confirmed, we prepare a Master Builders Association contract (fixed-price or cost-plus) and finalise all necessary paperwork.

  • 5) Construction Begins

    Our qualified 2M team gets to work. We handle everything on-site, supported by trusted local trades, ensuring high standards, safety, and efficiency.

  • 6) Ongoing Communication

    Throughout the build, we keep you updated with regular progress reports and open discussions. No surprises, just clarity and trust.

We believe great small builds come from big attention to detail.

Ancillary dwellings, studios, and granny flats require the same care and precision as any new home. We focus on clear communication, thoughtful design, and quality construction, ensuring your new space feels like a natural extension of your property, not an afterthought.

  • An ancillary dwelling (sometimes called a secondary residence or granny flat) is a smaller, self-contained home built on the same lot as your main residence.

    Most projects require council approval, and we’ll guide you through that process, helping manage plans, permits, and any site-specific considerations.

  • In most Tasmanian councils, the maximum size is 60m², though it can vary depending on your property and zoning.

    We’ll confirm this during planning to ensure your design meets all local requirements without unnecessary delays.

  • Absolutely. Whether your home is contemporary or character-filled, we design and build to complement your property’s style, materials, and layout, so your new space feels cohesive and considered.

  • We can manage the entire process. Design input, approvals, site preparation, and construction, all the way through to completion. You’ll have one point of contact and a clear view of progress from start to finish.

  • Yes!

    Many clients choose to rent their studio or granny flat for additional income or to provide flexible living arrangements for family.

    We can help ensure the design meets compliance for independent living, including kitchen and bathroom fit-outs.
