Welcome To Searon Publishing

Our publications are intended to guide you through the maze of building, renovating or extending your home.

They are designed to help you decide whether to engage licensed builders/contractors, or become an owner-builder/renovator.

It is strongly recommended that you discuss your project with a member of The Master Builders Association or Housing Industry Association before deciding to be an owner-builder/renovator. Furthermore it is important to contact your local Office of Fair Trading.

The book will help minimise mistakes and reduce the likelihood of making wrong decisions through a lack of understanding or knowledge. Read and retain the book as it will help to ensure the success of your particular project.

NOTE: Changes to Council’s guidelines and/or requirements can occur at any time - it is important to check with your Council to clarify the position at all times.
