Mortdale Home Extensions — Fixed Price
A home extension in Mortdale grows the established St George home — heritage and brick-veneer stock on 400 to 700m² blocks where the wing adds the family space and the rail keeps the commute a walk.
The pre-war fabric gets licensed handling, the reactive pockets get engineered junctions, and the R3 near the station gets the zoning check.
At the $1.5M to $2.4M typical, the wing wins over the friction of upsizing in the district.
We build these fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Get our extension scope, with the zoning checked, before you commit.
Buildana manages the complete home extension process in Mortdale — from design consultation and structural engineering through to DA or CDC approval, and fixed-price construction to handover. Extend your home without the stress.

The station stays in the plan
Mortdale's rail walk is the asset extending keeps — the wing adds the bedrooms and living while the commute stays effortless.
Near the station, the R3 value gets the check before any big spend.
Fabric and ground handled
On the pre-war fabric lead paint joins asbestos, and the reactive pockets get engineered junctions.
Both sit in the quote from the outset.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
The first job on an extension is finding out what you're extending onto. Mortdale homes from the 1920s–1960s heritage Federation/Californian Bungalow + 1960s–1990s brick veneer + 2010s+ R3/R4 redevelopment around Hurstville/Kogarah/Beverly Hills CBDs were built to different standards — we open walls, check footings, verify load paths. The existing house has to carry the new work.
⏱Design follows the existing roof. A bad extension looks like a bolt-on; a good one reads as original. Matched brickwork or contrasting render (whichever the architecture calls for), tied-in roofline, continuous flooring where it should be continuous.
⏱Construction happens while you live in the house. That means weatherproofing every night, staging the works so kitchens and bathrooms don't disappear on the same week, and keeping the site clean of debris that doesn't belong in a family home.
⏱Finish is seamless. Paint match, floor match, roofline match, brick match where possible. The only way to tell the extension is new is the date on the plans.
