A lot of homeowners find that big building companies won't return calls for a deck, a bathroom or a few repairs. A local licensed builder is usually a better fit for these jobs.
Short answer
Look for a QBCC licensed builder based on the Gold Coast who lists the type of work you need, gives fixed written quotes and can show you completed work. Local builders tend to respond faster and can visit the site before quoting.
Jobs a local builder handles well
- Decks, pergolas and outdoor stairs.
- Kitchen and bathroom renovations.
- Hybrid flooring and carpentry.
- Retaining walls, fencing and concrete.
- Insurance repairs and property maintenance.
Quick checks before you book
- Search their licence on the QBCC website.
- Ask for proof of insurance.
- Get a written scope and fixed price.
- Ask how variations are handled.
