DA Approval Services for Renovations, Extensions & New Homes

"I recently had my DA approved in Menai for my new home build, and I could not have asked for a better experience. Going into the process, I expected stress, delays and confusion, but Dura Group completely changed that for me. Mark and Patricia were always available to answer my questions, even the small ones and they never made me feel like an inconvenience. Their communication was clear, honest and consistent, which gave me confidence at every step. What really stood out was how proactive they were with council requirements and paperwork. Instead of me chasing updates, they were already two steps ahead. The architect was incredibly accommodating also, happily adjusting plans and offering smart suggestions that improved the design without losing my vision. What also gave me real peace of mind was working directly with the builder throughout the DA process. Having Mark involved early added an extra layer of confidence — I knew the design wasn’t just great on paper, but practical, compliant and buildable. Thanks to their organisation, attention to detail and genuine commitment, my DA was approved smoothly and I’m now stepping into the build phase feeling excited."

"We worked with Dura Group for our CDC approval and home extension, and honestly, they made the whole process so easy. What started out feeling really overwhelming quickly became simple thanks to Patricia — she was so organised, clear, and genuinely supportive every step of the way. Once everything was approved, the team completed our renovation and we couldn’t be happier with the result. The whole experience was smooth, stress-free, and felt really personal. I’d definitely recommend Dura Group to anyone wanting an easy approval process and a high-quality build.'"

"Highly recommend Dura group, such a down to earth passionate team who take on any challenge, from start to finish they have been absolutely fantastic. Mark and his team are professional, efficient and highly skilled. Daniel the main Foreman is not only a magician who can fix absolutely anything thrown at him but also has a voice of an angel. His voice wakes up any household and is such an entertaining foreman to have around. Mark is a very patient professional man who works within any budget, communicates daily to keep you in the loop, and lastly Patricia who was absolutely fantastic handling the admin side of the business, working effortlessly behind the scenes using her magic to complete all the paperwork and actioning the CDC within 4 weeks over christmas. Thank you again Dura group for our beautiful living space."

"We recently completed a full internal renovation with Mark and the entire experience was exceptional from start to finish. Patricia coordinated the CDC approval process and it was seamless and surprisingly easy. We really appreciated her help in managing that side of things and keeping everything moving smoothly. Mark brought great ideas to the layout that we hadn’t even considered, which made a huge difference to the overall design and flow of the home. The build quality is outstanding, with real care and attention to detail throughout. The new layout has completely transformed our space, it’s now more functional and perfectly suited to our family. We’re confident this renovation has turned our house into our forever home. Highly recommend Mark, Patricia and the team."
