MBA NSW0476 300 300Second-Storey & Rear Additions in Lakemba
A home extension in Lakemba serves the growing household — the 1930s-60s stock on 400 to 600m² blocks extends across the rear for the extra bedrooms and second living that multigenerational families need.
On the tighter blocks, the design works harder: every metre of the addition earns its place, and where the yard cannot give more, the second-storey comparison is run honestly against the era's framing.
The R3 pockets near the station get the zoning check, and the older fabric gets lead and asbestos handling by licensed process.
We build these fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Ask us to measure what your block can hold.
Buildana manages the complete home extension process in Lakemba — from design consultation and structural engineering through to DA or CDC approval, and fixed-price construction to handover. Extend your home without the stress.

Every metre earns its place
Lakemba's 400 to 600m² blocks demand design intelligence — the rear addition is planned to the metre so the bedrooms, living and bathroom all fit without losing the yard entirely.
Where the block cannot give more, I run the second-storey comparison honestly against the era's framing costs.
Era and zoning checks
The 1930s-60s fabric gets lead and asbestos handling by licensed process, and the R3 pockets near the station get the zoning check before big spends.
Both the licensed handling and the zoning check are costed up front.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
Walk through your Lakemba home with our designer and structural engineer. We measure, photograph, and check the bones — footings, frame condition, roof structure.
⏱Our designer works with your existing home's layout — connecting new living areas to existing rooms, matching materials and roof pitch, and maximising natural light. You approve floor plans and 3D renders before we proceed.
⏱Most rear extensions in Lakemba qualify for CDC — cleaner, faster, no neighbour notification. Second-storey additions typically need DA through Canterbury-Bankstown Council because of overshadowing and privacy assessments.
⏱Extension built from new footings to completion — connecting structurally to your existing home. Class M–S soil design managed.
⏱Walk through the completed extension, confirm finishes, collect your OC. Six-year structural warranty covers all new work including the junction with your existing home.
