Comprehending Apartment Renovation By-laws and Approvals
Renovating an apartment in Sydney involves more than creative designs and quality construction. It requires detailed navigation of apartment renovation by-laws, a thorough understanding of the approval process, and respectful collaboration with your owner’s corporation. We streamline this complex process, offering clarity and professional management every step of the way. Ensure your renovation project meets every legal requirement with confidence and ease.
The Importance of Adhering to Strata By-laws
Every strata property has its own set of strata by-laws, which apartment renovations must strictly follow. These bylaws protect the apartment complex’s safety, integrity, and communal harmony. Whether your renovation involves minor renovations like installing a reverse cycle air conditioner, patching minor holes, or undertaking major renovations such as removing walls, restructuring internal walls, or renovating your entire apartment, compliance is essential. Non-compliance could result in delays, disputes, or even fines, where you must pay money to rectify issues.
Detailed Breakdown of the Approval Process
We ensure the correct process is followed meticulously. Typically, renovations that impact the common property, such as plumbing work in an apartment bathroom renovation or structural modifications requiring a structural engineer, will require approval through your building’s strata approval process. This involves submitting an apartment renovation application form, detailing the renovation scope, and obtaining consent from the strata committee. In certain situations, an extraordinary general meeting or discussion at the annual general meeting might be necessary, involving input from all the owners or adjacent neighbours.
Expert Management of Strata Committees and Owners
It is crucial to effectively engage with your strata committee and ensure all lot owners are informed and supportive. Monument Projects offers proactive communication strategies to engage stakeholders positively, from initial consultations to securing the final strata approval. Our team collaborates closely with your strata manager, clearly outlining renovation impacts, addressing concerns, and resolving queries promptly. Monument Projects’ transparent approach ensures everyone remains informed and aligned, making approvals smoother and quicker.

Our Step-by-Step Apartment Renovation Process
Renovating an apartment is a unique undertaking — from navigating strata by-laws to working within the constraints of shared access and building regulations. At Monument Projects, we specialise in transforming apartments with a streamlined, transparent process that eliminates stress and delivers exceptional results. From your first consultation to the final styling, every step is designed to ensure a smooth experience and a beautifully finished home — without delays, surprises, or unnecessary costs.
Discovery & Initial Consultation
We begin with a detailed discussion, either on-site or virtually, to understand your goals, style preferences, and the current condition of your apartment. We’ll ask the right questions to uncover what’s possible within your building’s by-laws, and we’ll advise on layout potential, renovation scope, and budget expectations.
Site Assessment & By-Law Review
Our team conducts a thorough inspection of your unit to identify structural limitations, access challenges, and any impacts to common property (e.g. walls, floors, ceilings, services). We review your strata scheme’s by-laws and assess what approvals are required from your owners corporation, ensuring full compliance from day one.
Concept Design & Space Planning
We craft a tailored design concept that enhances functionality, maximises space, and reflects your lifestyle. Whether it’s a smart kitchen redesign, an open-plan living transformation, or a compact laundry fit-out, we ensure the design works beautifully within your apartment’s dimensions — and strata requirements like acoustic and fire ratings.
Formal Quoting & Scope of Works
Once the design is approved, we prepare a transparent, itemised quote along with a clearly defined scope of works. This includes material selections, timeline breakdown, site logistics, and anticipated approvals. We make everything easy to understand — with no hidden costs or surprises later on.
Strata & Council Approvals
We take the hassle out of the approval process by preparing all required documentation, including scope plans, insurances, and work method statements. We communicate directly with your strata manager or building committee and handle any amendments or follow-ups required to obtain formal renovation approval.
Construction & Site Management
With approvals in place, our fully licensed and NSW-certified trades begin the build phase. We coordinate everything — lift bookings, rubbish removal, noise restrictions, and trades access — to ensure minimal disruption to neighbours. A dedicated site manager keeps everything on track, and you’ll receive consistent updates throughout the build.
Quality Checks, Final Styling & Clean-Up
Before handover, we perform a rigorous quality control check and clean every inch of your new space. Whether we’ve upgraded your kitchen, installed new joinery, or completely reimagined your living area, everything is polished, functional, and ready for move-in. Light styling is available to elevate the final look.
Handover & Warranty
We walk you through your transformed apartment, confirm satisfaction, and hand over all relevant documentation — including warranties, care instructions, and compliance certificates. With our $500/day delay guarantee, you’ll have peace of mind that your renovation was delivered on time and to the highest standard.

Apartment Renovation FAQs
1. Do I need strata approval before starting an apartment renovation?
Yes — strata approval is typically required, especially for any works that affect common property, plumbing, waterproofing, or structural elements. Even non-structural changes like flooring or cabinetry may need written approval. At Monument Projects, we take the hassle out of the process by assisting with all necessary documentation and liaising with your strata committee to ensure smooth approvals.
2. Can you help with the design and layout of my apartment renovation?
Absolutely. Our team offers complete design and planning services to help you reimagine your space. Whether you want to improve flow, increase storage, or upgrade finishes, we’ll work closely with you to create a layout that’s both stylish and compliant with building regulations and strata requirements.
3. How long will my apartment renovation take?
The timeline for an apartment renovation depends on the size and complexity of the project. Minor upgrades like painting, flooring, or fixture replacements typically take 1 to 3 weeks. More involved renovations, such as kitchen or bathroom remodels, usually require 3 to 5 weeks, while a full apartment renovation that includes layout reconfigurations, plumbing, electrical, and finishing work can take 6 to 10 weeks.
At Monument Projects, we provide a clear, itemised project timeline before any work begins — so you know exactly what to expect at every stage. We also back our promise with a $500/day deadline guarantee, giving you peace of mind that your renovation will be completed on time or we’ll pay the price.
4. Can I live in my apartment while it’s being renovated?
It depends on the extent of the renovation. For cosmetic updates, you may be able to stay with minor adjustments to your routine. However, for major renovations involving plumbing, tiling, or full room conversions, temporary relocation is often recommended for your safety and comfort. We’ll help you plan accordingly and keep disruption to a minimum.
5. What are Strata by-laws, and how do they affect my renovation?
Strata by-laws are rules that govern what you can and can’t do within your apartment and the building’s common areas. These by-laws can impact everything from noise restrictions to what types of materials you’re allowed to use. They also outline the approval process for renovations. At Monument Projects, we’re well-versed in interpreting and complying with strata by-laws, and we work closely with your strata manager to ensure your renovation meets all legal and procedural requirements.
6. How do you minimise disruption to other residents in the building?
We take pride in our respectful and well-organised approach. Our team adheres to strata-mandated work hours, uses dust barriers and noise reduction tools, and ensures regular cleanup to maintain a tidy and quiet environment. We also communicate with building management to schedule works that are least disruptive to other residents.
7. Are you licensed and insured to perform apartment renovations?
Yes. Monument Projects is a Registered Building Practitioner in NSW and a proud member of the Master Builders Association. We carry all required insurances, including public liability and workers’ compensation. Our certifications and professional standards give you peace of mind that your apartment renovation is in expert hands.
