OUR PEOPLE MAKE THE DIFFERENCE

Many team members have worked with us for over 20 – 30 years

When you first meet with us you’ll experience what separates Extension Factory from other companies.  Some put it down to over 45+ years in the building industry, but we believe it is the quality of our people.

We care about our team and they care about you. We are with you from the first nail to the final handover and beyond.

​​I ​really like chatting to clients ​about their ideas​. This​ also​ helps me ​understand what they want so I can match them with ​one of our​ designers​. The ​staff are friendly ​and it is a nice place to work.
Anna | Reception

​I wouldn’t work for any other company!​ It’s challenging as every project is different, it’s rewarding to deliver a quality product to our clients​ and​ it’s a pleasure to work with such a great bunch of people everyday.
John | Design Consultant

“I am proud to be part of the Extension Factory. We do high quality work and hire very talented people, but the best part of my job is handing over the keys and seeing how happy our clients are. It’s such a great feeling.”
Zac | Building Manager

My role is very diverse and keeps me challenged​. It​ puts me in a unique position where I see and hear the exceptional service ​our clients receive daily​​. The friendly​ caring​ ​people are truly what makes ​this ​a great place to work​.​
