A tribute to our Founder – Johannes ‘Hans’ Spannenberg

Johannes ‘Hans’ Spannenberg

Born 29th September 1943 and died 24th April 2025 Aged 81

After a sustained battle with health, he was called to be with his Heavenly Father.

A man of faith, integrity and principles. A dedicated father and husband who cared sacrificially for his family.

Survived by his beloved wife Alison, sons Kenneth, Benjamin and Jonathan their wives and children.

Hans had a great sense of humour and was loved by all.

Giving us the name ‘Spannenberg & Son’

Hans started his first home extension back in 1970 in Campbelltown, henceforth Spannenberg & Son was incorporated in 1971. Ever since that time Spannenberg & Son has been specialising in home extensions and home renovations.

Hans trained his 3 sons with a strong work ethic and attention to quality and detail building hundreds of home extensions throughout Sydney, eventually handing the reins over to Ben at his retirement in 2008.

Hans set a high standard of workmanship and emphasised service and good open communication with clients as key.

Hans will be sorely missed but leaves a lasting legacy in the building industry that bears his name.

Blending a classic traditional home with modern updates

As part of the Cawdor renovation, we opted to replace the home’s traditional tiled roof with a metal COLORBOND steel sheet during the design phase. This roofing choice plays a key role in blending the home’s classic style with our modern updates.
