Timber Framing in Currumbin Waters
Structural timber framing - wall, floor and roof framing, load-bearing wall removal and engineered beams, structural openings, subfloor and stump replacement, and termite or rot damaged framing repairs. Orange Projects is a QBCC-licensed builder (Licence No. 15620733) delivering timber framing across Currumbin Waters and the wider Gold Coast region.
Timber Framing in Currumbin Waters - what to expect
Currumbin Waters is the quieter family side of the Currumbin catchment, with larger blocks and long-term owners who renovate to stay rather than to sell. 1980s and 90s low-set brick homes, some larger split-level houses on the elevated streets, and creekside properties. Kitchen and bathroom renovations, flooring replacements and covered outdoor areas are the usual scopes. For timber framing specifically, this matters. Creek-adjacent blocks can carry flood overlay requirements affecting floor levels and material selection. We check the overlay before design, not after, so the approval path is clear from the start. Every Currumbin Waters project is quoted at a fixed price after a site inspection, delivered by one licensed team, and finished with the documentation and warranties you should expect from a licensed builder.

Our timber framing service in Currumbin Waters
Structural openings and beams
Opening a kitchen into living is the most requested structural change we quote. Done properly it means confirming what the wall carries, an engineer sizing the beam and supports, temporary propping, the beam and posts taken down to adequate footings, and certification at completion - all carried out under our QBCC licence.
Subfloor, bearers, joists and stumps
Older homes commonly hide their worst problems under the floor: sagging bearers, damaged joists, rotted stumps and floors that slope. We inspect, map the damage and replace what needs replacing with treated hardwood or steel before relevelling. On a character home this is almost always the job that has to come before any cosmetic renovation.
Framing for decks, extensions and build-unders
Elevated decks, patios, build-under conversions and new rooms all carry engineering, wind-rating and tie-down requirements in South East Queensland, and coastal areas sit in higher wind regions than inland ones. We frame to the engineered drawings and book frame-stage inspections so certification is straightforward.
What timber framing cost in Currumbin Waters (2026)
Small structural repairs generally start around $3,000-$8,000. Beam installations with engineering and certification typically run $6,000-$20,000, and full subfloor rebuilds or restumping $10,000-$35,000. Prices vary with access, existing condition and the level of finish you choose. Creek-adjacent blocks can carry flood overlay requirements affecting floor levels and material selection. We check the overlay before design, not after, so the approval path is clear from the start.
How long timber framing take
Small structural repairs take 2-5 days. Beam installations usually run 1-2 weeks. Subfloor rebuilds, restumping and build-under framing generally take 3-6 weeks.

Frequently asked questions - Currumbin Waters
How much does it cost to remove a load-bearing wall?

Can you repair termite or rot damaged framing?
Yes, and it is regular work in Currumbin Waters.

Do you do restumping and subfloor repairs?
Yes. Sagging bearers, borer or termite damaged joists, rotted timber stumps and sloping floors are common in the older cottages and Queenslanders around Currumbin Waters. We inspect the subfloor, map the damage, replace with treated hardwood or steel and relevel the floor.
