Renovation

The work

Canstruct’s focus is residential building, with most of the work on existing homes. The discipline of working carefully with what is already there carries through every project, from a kitchen renovation to a full new build.

Renovations

Substantial residential renovations: kitchens, bathrooms, internal reconfiguration, structural work, outdoor additions and the waterproofing that determines whether the result lasts.

Extensions and additions

First floor additions, rear extensions and the kind of work that turns a home with good bones into one that fits how you now live.

New homes

Architecturally designed homes built with care, working alongside leading architects and designers.

Heritage

Period homes, heritage-listed buildings and conservation areas. A decade of inner Sydney heritage experience, applied locally.

Architectural partners

The architects and designers Canstruct has worked with shape the work as much as the trades on site.

Recent and ongoing partnerships include Retallack Thompson, Ken Powell Architect, Joseph Grech Architects, Oikos Architects, Kough Design, Barefoot Building Design and Houseplans by Design, with current Northern Rivers projects underway with Lea Design Studio.

A clear process, from first conversation to handover

Most clients have not built before. Canstruct’s process is built around making each stage clear, with the right document at the right point and a conversation that explains what it means.

The five stages: an initial conversation and site visit, a written scope of work and tender summary, contract and engagement, the build itself, and completion with proper handover. Each stage has its own work to do, and you will know what to expect at every point.

Published and recognised

Canstruct projects have been published in Houses Magazine, December 2024 (Tree House, Lilyfield, with Retallack Thompson) and Kitchen & Bathroom Quarterly, Issue 24 Volume 3 (Ridge 3, Surry Hills, with Ken Powell Architect). Master Builders Association member for twelve years.

In their own words

“He was across the detail, what we were hoping to achieve and very approachable. The renovation was not straightforward involving excavations and restricted access. The 2021 Sydney COVID-19 lockdown also hit during the middle of the build. Jason and his team worked through all of this and got it finished within the time planned. The finished product truly exceeded our hopes.”

— Tree House, Lilyfield

“From start to finish Jason was transparent, reliable, and incredibly easy to work with. The quality of the finished product exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t be more impressed.”

— Jarrah 1, Ocean Shores

“Jason did a great job in managing all the trades as well as keeping open lines of communication with us during the build. We would recommend Jason to anyone looking for a builder.”
