When you need more room

Extend your home. Don't leave it.

You love the street, the neighbours, the school catchment, you just need more space. A well-designed home extension gives you the room you need without the cost, stress, and upheaval of moving. But a poorly planned extension looks wrong, functions badly, and can reduce your property's value.

METCON builds home extensions across Sydney that integrate with the existing structure, matching roof lines, floor levels, materials, and architectural character. Every extension is structurally engineered, council-approved, and built to last.

Whether it's pushing the back of the house out for a bigger kitchen, adding a bedroom wing on the side, or opening up the ground floor to create a modern open-plan living area, we build it to feel like it was always part of the home.

Home Extensions
Is this you?

Six signs it's time to extend

If any of these sound familiar, it is worth a free site visit. We will tell you straight what your site needs.

Your kitchen is too small for the family

The kitchen is the heart of the home. If yours is cramped and outdated, a rear extension can transform how you live.

You need another bedroom or bathroom

Growing families need more rooms. A side or rear extension is usually far cheaper than buying a bigger house.

Living areas feel closed off and dark

Older homes with separate rooms can be opened up and extended into modern, light-filled open-plan spaces.

Working from home but nowhere to work

A dedicated home office added via extension provides the separation and space remote work needs.

You've been quoted before but it didn't seem right

A poor extension quote usually means poor planning. We design and price it properly from day one.

Your property has side or rear space to use

If your block has room at the side, rear, or both, an extension is almost always worth exploring.

Thinking about extending? Send us your floor plan and a few photos, we'll tell you what's possible.

What we build

Home extensions for every need.

From simple single-room additions to full ground floor transformations, we handle every type of home extension.

01

Rear Extensions

Extending the back of the house to create larger kitchens, open-plan living-dining areas, and seamless indoor-outdoor connections. The most popular residential extension type.

02

Side Extensions

Using side yard space to add bedrooms, bathrooms, or widen the existing floor plan. Particularly effective on wider blocks with unused side setback.

03

Open-Plan Conversions

Removing internal walls and extending to create modern open-plan kitchen-living-dining spaces. Structural engineering for load-bearing wall removal.

04

Kitchen Extensions

Dedicated kitchen extensions that give you the space for a proper island bench, butler's pantry, or family-sized kitchen. Connected to new or existing dining areas.

05

Multi-Room Additions

Adding multiple rooms in a single build, bedroom, bathroom, living room combinations designed as integrated additions, not separate boxes.

06

Self-Contained Wings

Separate wings with private access for extended family, teenage retreats, or home office suites. Independent but connected to the main home.

Our process

Designed around how you live.

Every home extension follows our structured five-step process. We plan around your lifestyle, your home, and your budget.

Site Visit & Brief

We visit your home, measure the existing structure, discuss what you need, and identify opportunities and constraints. This becomes the design brief.

Design & Engineering

Working with architects and engineers, we develop extension plans that integrate with your home. Structural, architectural, and services design coordinated together.

Council Approvals

We manage the DA or CDC approval process with council. Plans, engineering, and documentation submitted and followed through to approval.

Construction

Our team builds the extension with care for your existing home and your daily life. Staged works, dust protection, and clear communication throughout.

Handover

On completion, you receive all documentation, plans, engineering certificates, compliance certificates, and warranty information. Ready for occupation.

More home, and proof it's been built right.

Council-approved plans, structural engineering, construction documentation, and compliance certificates. Everything for your records and future resale.

What our clients say

Rated 5.0 by Sydney clients.

5.0

Real reviews from homeowners, strata and builders.

I called three builders and METCON were the only ones who actually came to look at the site before quoting. Honest pricing, no surprises.
LCLisa Chen Randwick
We got three quotes. METCON was not the cheapest but was clearly the most thorough. Worth every dollar.
KLKaren Lawson Bondi Junction
They handled the DA, the engineer, and the build. We didn't have to chase council once. Massive wall, done in under two weeks.

Home Extensions FAQ

Common questions.

Straight answers from the builder. Anything else, just ask.

How long does a home renovation take in Sydney?

It depends on the scope. Typical durations:

Bathroom3 to 6 weeks
Kitchen6 to 10 weeks
Full home3 to 6 months
First floor addition6 to 12 months, including council approvals

We provide a detailed project timeline with your quote so you know exactly what to expect.

Do I need a DA for a home extension or granny flat?

In many cases, home extensions and granny flats can be approved through a Complying Development Certificate (CDC), which is faster than a full DA.

This depends on factors like your property's zoning, heritage overlays, flood mapping, bushfire risk and the scope of the work.

We handle the approval process and can advise you on the fastest path to getting your project started.

Can I live in my house during renovations?

In most cases, yes. For smaller renovations like bathrooms or kitchens, you can usually stay in the home.

For major structural works, first floor additions or knock-down rebuilds, you may need to move out temporarily. We will advise you during the planning stage and do everything we can to minimise disruption.
