A licensed Brisbane builder that designs and builds

What we do

We design outdoor structures to suit your house and your block. Then we engineer them, get them approved and build them.

Much of the market sells structures in set sizes. The person who sells it isn't the person who builds it, and nobody measures the block properly. That works until the ground slopes or the structure sits close to a boundary, which in Brisbane is most of the time.

We start with the site and design the structure to suit it. The people who quote the job are the people who build it.

We build what you want. We don't sell you what's in stock.

How we work

  • We are a licensed builder, and we show the number

    QBCC Licence [00000]. Queensland law requires a licensed builder to show that number in their advertising. On a structure attached to your house, the licence is what makes someone accountable for the result.

  • One team, from the measure to the sign-off

    We do the design, engineering, council application and build ourselves. Most outdoor structures in Brisbane pass through three or four sets of hands, and things get lost at each handover.

  • We tell you the price

    Four of our services have a published starting price. The pages for the rest explain what drives the cost. You get a fixed price before you commit, and it doesn't move afterwards.

  • We will talk you out of the upsell

    If the insulated roof isn't worth it on your carport, we'll tell you. Same if a skillion suits your house better than a gable. It costs us money in the short run, and it's why our reviews read the way they do.

Where we work

We build across Brisbane northside, Brisbane southside and Ipswich and the western corridor. Our own team works there every week.

We're based at 27 / 256 Musgrave Road, Coopers Plains. If your address is outside our area, we'll tell you rather than quote a job we can't look after properly.

What customers say

  • “No hard-sell, no 'let me see what's in stock and get it cheaper for you' talk… just a fair price from the beginning.”

    Carla Jones

  • “The finished carport looks great and has added significant value and functionality to our home.”

    Elliott Gillespie

  • “Everyone wanted to sell me a kit, I did not want a kit.”
