BASIX & NatHERS for Maitland homes
Maitland is a historic Hunter Valley city where renovations, extensions, granny flats and knock-down rebuilds need BASIX, and new builds need a 7-star NatHERS rating. We help owners upgrade older homes while meeting the requirements.
Renovations and additions over the BASIX threshold need a BASIX certificate, while granny flats and rebuilds need BASIX and NatHERS. The Hunter Valley climate brings warm summers and cool winters, so we balance shading with winter solar access and insulation.
How we help in Maitland
- BASIX for alterations and additions over the cost threshold
- Secondary dwelling (granny flat) BASIX certificates
- Insulation and draught sealing for cool valley winters
- NatHERS modelling for knock-down rebuilds to reach 7 stars
