Extensions
Add more living space to your home with a professionally built extension. Whether it's a ground-floor addition, second storey, or rear extension, MEK Homes delivers seamless extensions that blend with your existing home.
Need more space without moving? MEK Homes designs and builds home extensions across Melbourne that integrate seamlessly with your existing structure. From single-room additions and ground-floor extensions to second-storey builds, our team handles all structural carpentry, framing, and finishing work. We ensure your extension matches your home's character while meeting current building standards. Every extension project is backed by proper engineering and managed from start to finish by our experienced team.
Our Process
We begin with a site assessment to evaluate your home's structure and discuss your space requirements. After reviewing or preparing plans, we provide a fixed-price quote covering all carpentry and project management. We handle council permits and engineering, then execute the build — from footings and framing through to lockup and internal finishing. Our goal is a seamless transition between old and new that looks and feels like it was always part of the home.
