Modern and minimal living room by custom builders Orth Property Group in Sydney

Ready to reimagine your home, expand your living space or design your custom new home from scratch? Our highly experienced team and network of trusted trades can make it happen — from concept development, design and construction to handing over the keys. You dream it, we build it.

 

Let’s transform your vision into a beautiful and functional sanctuary that you’ll love for years to come.

 

At Orth Property Group, we bring decades of experience, a passion for exceptional craftsmanship and a commitment to delivering homes that are as unique as the families who live in them. 

Allow us to take the stress out of building by managing the entire process for you. As experienced custom builders in Sydney, our family-owned and run company has expertise across every facet of property development. We take the time to understand your family's needs, style and budget to create a design that fits your vision perfectly — and will feel exceptional to live in, too.

 

Home renovations, extensions and custom new builds, designed with precision and care

 

The Australian way of life is at the core of our design philosophy. Picture long summer evenings, laughter, family gatherings and children splashing in the pool — this seamless indoor-outdoor living is an essential part of our cultural DNA and we make it central to every home we create or renovate.

You also need a home that works with Australia's challenging climate, rather than against it. We prioritise energy efficiency, smart design principles and natural or recycled materials where possible, creating comfortable living spaces year-round while minimising your environmental impact.

If this sounds like you, we’re here to help:

You dream of designing and building your own perfect home, a spacious and connective place where your family and friends can spread out, relax and entertain.

You’ve renovated before but found the process difficult and time-consuming with underwhelming results — you know you need expert advice every step of the way.

You have an older house that’s full of original features and unique character that you’d love to preserve, while creating a more liveable and light-filled place to call home.

Your family is growing and you need more room — an extra bedroom, study or home office, granny flat, luxurious swimming pool or even a completely custom new build.

You need pro-level help figuring out how to use your available space best to create a functional yet elegant home, for the best possible value.

 Frequently asked questions

  • Project timelines depend on the size and complexity of the work. Renovations might take 6–12 weeks, while custom builds and larger extensions can range from 6–12 months. We'll provide a detailed schedule during the planning phase.

  • Yes, if needed, we can handle all necessary permits, approvals, and compliance requirements, ensuring a smooth process from start to finish. You can trust us to navigate local regulations on your behalf.

  • We start with a free consultation to discuss your ideas, budget and timeline. From there, we provide a detailed quote and plan. Once approved, we move into design and construction.

  • We provide a detailed cost breakdown upfront and maintain open communication throughout the project. Our team is especially skilled at creative problem-solving to ensure high-quality results while remaining within budget.

    Also, bringing us on as your builder right from the beginning ensures practicality and cost-efficiency. While architects focus on design, builders work with budgets and the realities of construction, offering invaluable insights early on. This helps prevent costly mistakes and reduces the likelihood of variations later, which can be expensive and disruptive, often forcing last-minute compromises under tight deadlines.

    By planning thoroughly from the outset with us as your builder, you avoid settling for what’s available and achieve a well-executed, cost-effective project.

  • It depends on the scope of the renovation. For smaller projects, staying at home may be possible but for larger or more disruptive work, you may wish to move to alternative accommodation temporarily for your convenience and safety.
