Local Builders Servicing Como and the Sutherland Shire
If you are planning renovation work in Como, the right scope matters from the start. Many homes in the area benefit from better internal layouts, updated kitchens and bathrooms, stronger indoor-outdoor connections, and more practical living space for growing families. We help Como residents plan and complete building work with a clear focus on structure, sequencing, finishes, access and day-to-day liveability. Our work covers home renovations, bathroom and kitchen upgrades, ground floor extensions, upper floor additions, decks, pergolas, repairs, maintenance and presale improvements.
Renovating in Como can involve anything from a single wet area upgrade through to a full internal rework. We help homeowners define the right scope before work begins, including layout changes, wall removals, storage improvements, window and door changes, and better connections between living areas and outdoor spaces. For many established homes, the aim is to improve function without losing the parts of the home that already work well.
Our renovation services include bathroom renovations, kitchen renovations, laundries, living areas, decks, pergolas and broader home renovations. We also coordinate with engineers, designers and trade specialists when structural changes, custom joinery, waterproofing or compliance details need careful planning. The result is a build path that is practical, transparent and suited to the condition of your Como property.
Some Como homes can be improved by extending rather than moving. A ground floor extension may create a larger kitchen, family room or rear living zone, while an upper floor addition can add bedrooms, a second bathroom or a parent retreat. The right option depends on your block, existing structure, roof form, access, budget and how you want the home to function long term.
We assess practical construction issues early, including footings, load paths, drainage, temporary support, site access and disruption to the existing home. If your project needs engineering or approval input, we help you understand what is likely to be required before the scope is locked in. You can read more about ground floor extensions, upper floor extensions and council approval for renovations in NSW before planning your Como extension.
Como homes often benefit from outdoor areas that make better use of the block, outlook, light and available yard space. A well-planned deck or pergola needs more than a good-looking finish. It should consider drainage, levels, sun exposure, privacy, balustrades, footings, maintenance, access from the house and how the area will be used throughout the year.
We started with carpentry work, including decks and pergolas, so we understand the construction details that affect durability and comfort. We can help with new timber or composite decking, covered patios, stair access, handrails, privacy screening and integrated outdoor entertaining areas. Explore our decks and pergolas service, review guidance on deck and pergola approvals in the Sutherland Shire, or ask about a site inspection for your Como property.
What Shapes Renovation Costs in Como
Renovation costs vary because every existing home is different. Before quoting, we look at the structure, access, finishes, consultant needs and construction sequence so the scope is clear.
Older brick, weatherboard or altered homes may need extra investigation before walls, floors or roof areas are changed. Hidden damage, uneven levels and outdated services can affect the final scope.
Wall removals, extensions, upper floor additions and large openings often need engineering input. Beams, posts, footings and load transfer details can have a major impact on cost.
Narrow access, sloping blocks, occupied homes and limited material storage can affect labour time and staging. Good sequencing helps reduce disruption and avoid unnecessary rework.
A Clear Renovation Process for Como Projects
Good renovation work starts with clear decisions, not rushed assumptions. For Como homes, we begin by understanding the property, the access, the existing structure and how you want the home to function after the work is complete.
Depending on the scope, we may discuss site inspections, concept planning, consultant input, engineering, approvals and staged construction. For larger projects, we can help you compare renovation options against extension options, including ground floor extensions and upper floor extensions.
1. Site Review and Scope Planning
We inspect the home, discuss your priorities and identify likely constraints. This may include access, existing structure, drainage, services, wet areas and whether the project needs design or consultant input.
2. Quote, Approvals and Preparation
Once the scope is clearer, we prepare the quote and discuss allowances, finishes and sequencing. If approvals are needed, we help you understand the process and what information may be required.
3. Construction, Fit-Off and Handover
During construction, we manage trades, materials, site safety and day-to-day communication. The final stages include fit-off, finishing details, checks and handover so the completed work is ready to use.

Como includes a mix of established homes, brick houses, renovated properties and blocks where levels or access can influence the way building work is planned. Some homes may have dated layouts with small kitchens, separated living rooms or wet areas that no longer suit modern family routines. Others may need targeted repairs before cosmetic work makes sense.
Before removing walls or changing openings, we look at how the existing home is built. Load-bearing walls, roof framing, floor levels, stormwater, plumbing runs and electrical upgrades can all affect the right renovation approach. For homeowners comparing a light update with a larger rebuild of key areas, our full home renovation timeline guide and home renovation budget guide can help frame early decisions. We can also discuss presale makeovers if you are preparing a Como property for market.
Bathrooms, ensuites, laundries and powder rooms are common starting points for Como renovations because they affect daily comfort and resale appeal. These rooms need careful sequencing, especially where waterproofing, drainage, tiling set-out, ventilation, underfloor work and fixture placement need to fit within an existing footprint.
A good wet area renovation is not only about selecting tiles and tapware. It also needs the right substrate preparation, compliant waterproofing, fall to waste, clear access, practical storage and safe electrical placement. If you are researching options, review our bathroom renovation timeline, bathroom planning considerations and bathroom renovation cost guide. We can then inspect your Como home and explain what is realistic for the space, budget and existing plumbing layout.
Kitchen renovations in Como often involve more than replacing cabinetry. Many homeowners want better storage, improved natural light, stronger connection to dining and outdoor areas, and a layout that works for cooking, entertaining and family movement. This may require changes to walls, openings, flooring, services or ceiling details.
We help assess whether your existing kitchen layout can be improved or whether a more complete redesign is worthwhile. Practical decisions include appliance positions, pantry space, island size, joinery clearances, window or door changes, and how the new kitchen will connect to nearby living areas. You can compare options through our pages on what is included in a kitchen renovation, working with an existing kitchen layout and kitchen renovation costs in the Sutherland Shire.
Feedback From Local Renovation Clients
Jai and the team built a custom home for us. The finishes are perfect and the building process was a breeze. We decided to use Curtis Constructions because we had used them on two other smaller projects previously and on both of those, we were very satisfied.
Had the pleasure of working with Jai and his team. The wife and I are over the moon with everything they produced. Safe, on-time, on-budget and everything looked amazing. Thanks guys, couldn't recommend any higher!
Really like our new Laundry/Powder Room. Great company to deal with. All tradesmen were on time, cleaned up after themselves and did a meticulous job. Jai (Curtis) was very flexible when we wished to make some changes along the way.
