We handle residential construction across Sydney, from small renovations and extensions through to full knock-down rebuilds. One builder, one point of contact, every stage managed.
We take on residential projects that other builders find too complicated or too small to bother with. Whether you need a rear extension tied into an existing structure, a second storey, or a complete knock-down rebuild, we manage the full scope from council approvals to handover.
Each residential project has its own engineering, compliance, and construction requirements. We handle every type under one roof.
Ground floor, rear, and side extensions. We tie new construction into your existing structure with proper engineering, weatherproofing, and council approvals.

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.
We got three quotes. METCON was not the cheapest but was clearly the most thorough. Worth every dollar.
They handled the DA, the engineer, and the build. We didn't have to chase council once. Massive wall, done in under two weeks.
Common questions about home building, renovations, extensions, and construction approvals in Sydney and NSW.
Home extension costs in Sydney vary significantly with scope, finishes, and structural requirements. As a guide: a basic ground floor rear extension starts around $2,500 to $3,500 per m²; a quality extension with engineered structural work typically runs $3,500 to $5,000 per m². First floor additions are generally $3,500 to $6,000+ per m² due to additional structural requirements. We provide detailed written quotes after a site assessment.
It depends on the scope. Minor internal renovations that do not affect the building envelope or structural elements may be exempt development. Most extensions, second storeys, and significant structural changes require either a Complying Development Certificate (CDC) or a Development Application (DA). Heritage zones and certain overlays typically require a DA. We assess your project and manage the appropriate approval pathway.
Timeframes vary with scope. A bathroom renovation typically takes 3 to 6 weeks; a rear extension 3 to 5 months; a first floor addition 5 to 8 months; a full knock-down rebuild 8 to 14 months. Approvals can add 4 to 12 weeks before construction begins. We provide a realistic timeline with every quote.
The Home Building Compensation Fund (HBCF), formerly known as Home Warranty Insurance, is a consumer protection for residential building work over $20,000 in NSW. It covers you if the builder cannot complete the work or fix defects due to death, disappearance, or insolvency. As a licensed builder, we provide HBCF cover on all eligible residential projects as required by law.
In most cases, yes. We plan and stage the works to minimise disruption and maintain access to essential services. However, for major structural work, extensive demolition, or whole-house renovations, it may be more practical to arrange temporary accommodation. We will advise you honestly about what to expect during your specific project.
Yes. We manage the entire approval process: DA or CDC applications, council correspondence, engineering coordination, certifier liaison, and compliance documentation. You deal with one point of contact, not five separate consultants.
Tell us what you need. We will review the scope, coordinate with your architect or engineer, and provide a clear quote, no obligation.
