Building, extending or renovating a home in Bunbury? FTB Services combines building design, detailed working drawings and residential cost estimating so the project can be tested against the brief and budget before construction gets underway.
FTB works with homeowners, owner builders and builders who need practical residential drawings, measured cost information and documentation that can move from early planning into construction.
Clear residential documentation for new homes, extensions and renovations, developed so builders and consultants can understand what is being proposed and how it is intended to be built.
Construction cost information that helps test the design against the available budget, compare choices and reduce the risk of discovering an unaffordable scope after the drawings are complete.
One of the most expensive times to discover a budget problem is after the design has been fully documented. FTB brings quantity surveying into the design process so construction costs can be considered while the drawings are still developing.
For Bunbury and South West projects, this can make decisions around floor area, finishes, structural choices and construction methods easier to assess before they become locked into the documentation.
Building design, working drawings and cost planning for a new residential build.
Documentation and estimating for major internal changes, upgrades and rebuild scopes.
Plans for additions, second-storey work and changes that need to connect with the existing home.
Clear drawings, quantities and cost information to support better pre-construction decisions.
Share the site, what you want to build, your budget and anything you already have.
FTB develops the residential drawing scope around the brief, site and construction requirements.
Quantity surveying and estimating can test the project while the design is still able to change.
The project moves into clearer, more detailed documentation for approvals, pricing and construction.
A useful drawing set needs to do more than show how a home looks. It should give builders and consultants clear information about dimensions, construction, materials and the details needed to price and build the work with fewer assumptions.
The City of Bunbury provides certified and uncertified building permit pathways for residential work. FTB can prepare the architectural and working-drawing component of the project and help define what additional consultant or compliance information may be required for the application.

Yes. Owner builders can engage FTB for building design, working drawings, cost estimating, take-offs and selected documentation support depending on the project scope.
FTB can prepare the architectural and working-drawing component used within a permit application. Some projects also require engineering, energy, building surveying or other consultant documentation, and final approval sits with the relevant authority or certifier.
No. FTB works across multiple Australian states. This page is focused on residential enquiries from Bunbury and surrounding South West WA areas.
The site address, a short project brief, any sketches or existing plans, a survey if available, your approximate construction budget and preferred timing are all useful starting points.
You do not need a finished design before speaking with FTB. Send through the site and what you know so far and we can help identify the right next step.
