SGM is an exclusive building company who specialise in architecturally designed custom home builds throughout Sydney. When they're not working on new builds, they're doing renovations, extensions, additions, remedial and commercial developments.
SGM has earned their respected reputation through their consistent delivery of high-quality results and their relentless attention to detail throughout all aspects of the build. But achieving high-quality results means having a team of accredited carpenters, contractors and trades who all share the same commitment to quality and show pride in their work.
about us
Behind SGM Building is a father and son, Sean and Greg Mahoney who both share a love for building and passion for transforming lifestyles. Sean and Greg both wear the directors hats, with Greg also wearing the foreman hat.
Greg has over 40 years experience with his career highlight working with Sammut as the foreman on ‘Nautlius’, a waterfront seven bedroom, six-storey mansion that won the award for best Australian Custom Built Home and named the 2016 Australian Home of the Year. ‘Nautilus’ was crowned by Australia’s peak building industry body for its “painstaking level of detail and high-quality finishes” (The Courier, 2016).
how we're different
Quality over quantity
At SGM, we ensure that quality and precision is reflected in everything that we do from start to finish. It’s a philosophy that we have embedded in our business from the beginning and that’s why we only take on 1-2 jobs at a time. This policy ensures that we can focus on the quality of each job and dedicate a director (either Greg or Sean) to be the foreman on your project.
Your dedicated foreman will turn up to the site every day to monitor the work, and your builders will always be there to regularly communicate with you on the progress of the job. Our policy on limiting our focus to two projects only means more control over the quality of results, more time spent on the job and more communication between ourselves and the client.
We care more about the quality we establish in each job over the number of jobs that we do. These ethics are what sets us apart from other home renovation contractors.

We offer a free consultation and site inspection where we sit down together to discuss your vision, understand your needs, set a realistic budget, and also take a few initial measurements. If you haven’t yet engaged an engineer or architect to draw up professional plans, we can help guide you through this process. We work with some of the most credited engineers and architects in the industry.
Quote
We prepare a detailed & transparent quote for your review. If you're happy with the quote, we decide on a start date, create a construction schedule that outlines every deliverable and their deadline and we prepare contracts for you to sign.
Construction
This is where the magic happens! Being a custom builder, no job is exactly the same and we pride ourselves on doing the job right the first time. The small-scale, boutique nature of our company also means our builds are faster and more efficient than bigger construction companies. Throughout the building process, our foreman, Greg, will meet regularly with you so that you are kept informed of progress. You'll also get to know our contractors like we do: many who have been with us for more than 10 years, so they understand our expectations of quality in every project we undertake.
Handover
This is the exciting part! Handover will happen only when your final requirements have been fulfilled and you’re satisfied with the outcome. We carry out a detailed inspection together of the completed project to show you how everything works and to rectify anything that needs attention. As an ongoing commitment to our clients, we promise a 90-day maintenance period, 6-year structural warranty and also a 1-year non-structural warranty.

our trusted reputation
Deb & Wayne
Being in our early 60’s deciding to renovate was a very daunting thought. But lucky for us we had the best builders in SGM to help us through the whole process.
Sean, Greg and the team made it all very easy. Their professionalism, knowledge, expertise and experienced tradesmen did an outstanding job.
Not only were Sean and Greg our builder but they also steered us in the right direction with finishes, our amazing front door! bathroom layouts and much more. They kept us informed, were on time every morning, did not miss a day and were very respectful to our neighbours.
We cannot recommend SGM highly enough for a very professional and outstanding job. Every tradesman on our build was very proud of their work which made for perfect results which we are very appreciative of. I’d like to name and thank each one of them but I may leave someone out.
Sean and Greg had the patience of a Saint with us and are just very genuine and honest. We are more than happy with our renovated duplex (almost a complete new house!) thanks to Sean and Greg at SGM.
With immense appreciation.

Bathroom renovation, Cronulla
Right from the start the professionals at SGM Building were friendly, helpful and supportive throughout the whole renovation process. It can be a daunting job to undertake renovations, but the professional and friendly manner of all the employees at SGM made for the smooth running of the build.
From inception, design, to ordering fittings and gaining approval, the friendly staff at SGM were informative and supportive. Nothing was too much trouble! The tradesmen were friendly and very neat and tidy. Their work ethic is to be applauded.
Couldn’t be happier with the end results. Thanks to Sean and the team for making the dream come true.

Sean came to my house, understood what my needs were and measured up the bathroom for a quote which he was very transparent and honest about. Sean supported me through the complete design process and gave suggestions on what would look and work best in my space. He also gave me a list of the best suppliers to go and look at, which was great because I had no idea where to start. Once the SGM team started they kept all the living spaces tidy and clean. His trades worked like clock work everyone knew what they had to do and the standard they had to deliver. Once the Bathroom was complete everything was cleaned to the highest standard. I love my bathroom the quality of the finishes are second to none. Thank you SGM you have done an amazing job and I would highly recommend!!!
