    About Ossher Design and Build

    Home extension builders across Sydney.

    The test of an extension is whether a visitor can tell where the old house stops. That depends on floor levels, ceiling heights, roof geometry and how the junction between old and new is detailed.

    We build rear extensions, side additions and full ground-floor reconfigurations across Sydney, most often on period homes where the original layout puts the kitchen and living at the darkest end of the house.

    Extension work sits on top of an existing structure that was built to different standards. Footings, drainage, slab levels and existing wall condition all have to be assessed before a realistic price exists.

    We manage the DA or CDC pathway, coordinate the architect and engineer, and deliver the build under one contract with weekly reporting.

    Local Knowledge

    What makes an extension work.

    Three technical decisions decide whether the finished house feels whole.

    Level & Junction

    Matching floor levels and resolving the roof junction between old and new is where most extensions succeed or visibly fail.

    Approvals & Setbacks

    Site coverage, private open space, setbacks and overshadowing rules vary by council. We assess feasibility before you commission full design.

    Light & Orientation

    A well-planned extension brings light into the original house too. Skylights, high windows and glazing placement do more than square metres alone.

    FAQs

    Frequently asked questions.

    Quality ground-floor extensions in Sydney generally run $6,000 to $9,000 per square metre depending on site access, structural complexity and finish. Kitchens and bathrooms within the extension push the rate higher.

    Often yes, though many single-storey rear extensions can proceed as a Complying Development Certificate if they meet the standards. Heritage items and conservation areas require a DA.

    Typically five to nine months on site, plus three to six months for design and approval beforehand.

    Frequently yes for a rear extension, since much of the work happens outside the existing footprint until the connection is made. We seal off the work zone and stage the junction.

    Yes. We hold a current NSW contractor licence and carry full public liability and home warranty insurance on every project.

    Founder Adam Ossher runs every project personally, from feasibility through to handover. You deal with the person accountable for the build, not a rotating site manager.
