The work that comes up in Runaway Bay
Runaway Bay is largely canal front and near-water housing built from the seventies onward, with a strong owner occupier base. Salt exposure, older decks and pontoon side structures shape a lot of the work we are asked to look at here.
- Waterfront deck and boardwalk repair and replacement, including composite conversions.
- Renovation carpentry in canal homes where the finish standard is high.
- External timber repairs where salt and weather have taken their toll.
- Internal alterations to open up living areas toward the water.
Travel and your patch
Runaway Bay work sits close to Paradise Point, Hollywell, Biggera Waters and Labrador. Access is often through side yards and around pools, so patience helps.
What we look for from people in Runaway Bay

Before you start with us

Common questions
Do you have carpentry work in Runaway Bay right now?
We do not advertise vacancies we do not have. Orange Projects keeps an ongoing register of carpenters by area, and Runaway Bay is a suburb we work in regularly. Registering puts you on the list we call from when work is confirmed.
Do I have to live in Runaway Bay?
No. We dispatch by area rather than by address, so what matters is the patch you are happy to cover. Tell us your suburbs when you register and we will keep you close to home where we can.
Employment or subcontract?
Both are available. Employees and casuals work to hours and a run sheet we set. Subcontractors need an ABN and current public liability insurance, and work to an agreed scope or rate.
What do I need before I can start?
A white card, reliable transport and your own tools as a minimum, plus any licence required for the work you carry out in your own right. Subcontractors also need an ABN and insurance certificates on file.
