Strathfield Renovation Specialists
A home renovation in Strathfield is estate-grade heritage work — Federation mansions, inter-war Tudor and Spanish Mission on 700 to 1,500m² blocks, under the heaviest demolition scrutiny in inner-west Sydney.
That scrutiny makes the renovation the natural path: conserved mansion fabric, interiors rebuilt to the estate's standard, and generous rear wings on blocks with genuine room — heritage assessment leading everything.
The pre-war fabric gets licensed lead-paint and asbestos handling, and the old footings are assessed first.
We renovate fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Get our renovation scope, with the heritage assessment done, before you commit.

The estate demands the approach
Strathfield's HCAs cover virtually every older street and the demolition scrutiny is the inner west's heaviest — so the conserving renovation is the path that works: restored mansion and Tudor fabric, interiors rebuilt beautifully, rear wings built generous on the 700 to 1,500m² blocks.
The estate market pays a clear premium for exactly that work.
Heritage first, always
The heritage assessment leads every Strathfield project — before feasibility, before design. Lead paint and asbestos are licensed processes, and the old footings are assessed before structural work.
All priced into the scope upfront.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
A Strathfield renovation starts with what's worth keeping. Character floorboards, structural brickwork, original joinery — if it earns its place, it stays. Everything else gets a hard look.
⏱Design is pragmatic. Removing the right wall to open a kitchen, upgrading the bathroom to function properly, fixing the laundry that was an afterthought in 1975. Structural engineer signs off before anything load-bearing moves.
⏱Construction runs in stages so you can live in the house for parts of it. Wet areas and kitchens get a clear programme — three weeks without a kitchen is normal; three months is someone else's job.
⏱Handover is clean. New work tied into old work with matched finishes, defects fixed before you move back into the finished zones, warranty on all new work.
