Quick Answer

A home extension in Panania costs $150,000–$600,000+. Rear extension from $150K, second-storey addition from $300K. Buildana manages design, Canterbury-Bankstown Council approvals, and construction under one fixed-price contract.

Panania Home Extensions — Fixed Price

A home extension in Panania is really about holding onto the quiet. These are family streets, 1940s to 1970s homes on decent blocks with the station within reach, and people who live here tend to want more room without giving up the calm that brought them in. A rear wing does that — the bedrooms and the second living space arrive, the neighbourhood stays exactly as it is.

The build hinges on the original house. Brick with sound footings takes a wing without complaint. A fibro home that is genuinely tired gets an honest rebuild comparison, and any fibro we disturb along the way is stripped out under licence before new work starts.

At a $1.1M to $1.35M median the money stays in your favour when the bones justify it. Footings for the addition are engineered to your ground so old and new settle as one.

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 Panania — from design consultation and structural engineering through to DA or CDC approval, and fixed-price construction to handover. Extend your home without the stress.

Room without losing the calm

The family character is why households stay in Panania, and a rear wing lets them — bedrooms, a second living area and a new kitchen line across the back, with the station keeping the commute a walk.

I read the house before drawing anything, so the spend lands where it actually returns rather than on a shell that will not carry it.

Fibro out, footings engineered

Any fibro uncovered in the work is removed under a licensed strip-out before framing, handled properly rather than left in place.

The footings are engineered to your ground, and that plus the strip-out sits inside the fixed price from the beginning.

How It Works

From First Call to Final Key

Everything that has to be right before we touch the ground. On-site assessment of your 1940s–1970s-era home in Panania. We check structural condition, block dimensions (500–700m²), setback availability, and Canterbury-Bankstown Council's DCP requirements. Written feasibility and cost estimate provided. Designing an extension is half about the new space and half about how it joins the old one. Doorway position, ceiling height transition, floor level matching, light wells — the junction makes or breaks how the finished home feels.

The Panania construction phase. Fixed price, programmed, supervised. We lodge your extension approval — CDC for eligible designs or DA through Canterbury-Bankstown Council. Full documentation including structural engineering for Class M soil, BASIX, and shadow diagrams. CC issued before works start. For ground-floor rear extensions you usually stay in the house during the build, with temporary weatherproofing at the junction wall until the new section is locked up. Second-storey additions need a 4–8 week relocation during the roof-off and frame-up phase.

The job isn't done when the site's clean; it's done when you have keys, certificates and warranties. Final inspection, Occupation Certificate, 6-year structural warranty. Your Panania home now has the space your family needs.
