O'Mara is Hawkesbury's leading builder of a wide range of projects including new homes, knock-down rebuilds, first floor additions, extensions, home renovations, duplexs, townhouses, multi-unit developments, factories, shops and community buildings.

 

O'Mara built 8 houses for the Athletes' village for the Sydney 2000 Olympic games. We have built fire stations, rectified grandstands and horse stables, built a presbytery, constructed a Chinese restaurant, community hall, tourist centre, renovated post offices and tilt-up concrete factory units. You name it, we have built it !

 

Our biggest growth area is second storey additions which we now have a new streamlined system where we can remove a roof and install new frames, trusses and roof tiles to a waterproof stage within 10 days without the owners leaving the home (Conditions Apply). Some people call these first floor additions or attic conversions but with the lack of quality economical land in the Sydney Metro area this type of construction is fast becoming the most popular type of construction that is value for money.

 

Whether Katoomba, Hornsby, Gosford, Dural or Chatswood. We are centrally located to these areas and have crews based in all areas for easy access to all of these areas. Our rates are the same for each area being based on Hawkesbury, not Sydney inflated prices. We have a team of 12 full-time carpenters and pride ourselves on personal service with old style country values.

 

We regularly build on difficult sites, in remote areas, using unusual construction methods, on sloping sites, in bushfire or flood areas. We build projects that other builders won't or cannot. We love difficult jobs, on difficult sites, using new green technology or alternate construction methods. You name it, we build it.
