Palm Beach has changed dramatically over the last decade. What used to be considered a quiet family suburb of post-war fibro cottages has become one of the most in-demand pockets on the southern Gold Coast, and the renovation activity reflects that. Owners are either doing thoughtful heritage-respecting refreshes on the original cottages, or full second-storey extensions and structural reworks to unlock ocean and hinterland outlooks.
We do a lot of both. On smaller cottage jobs the focus is usually on modernising the wet areas, dropping in a new kitchen, replacing tired flooring with wide-plank hybrid or engineered timber, and refreshing the alfresco. On larger jobs we take on structural reconfigurations, second-storey additions, new roofs and full internal renovations while keeping the property live-in where the client wants to stay put.
Because Palm Beach sits close to the coast, material selection matters. We specify stainless fixings within salt-spray zones, choose deck timbers and composite systems that hold up to constant UV, and detail flashings and moisture barriers with the coastal climate in mind. Our carpentry crew runs the job from start to finish which means the detail work - joinery scribes, tile setouts, door reveals - lands the way it was drawn.

Full-home renovations, partial renovations, and heritage-respecting cottage upgrades. We plan around the parts of the home you want to keep - roof line, original front facade, mature landscaping - and rebuild the rest to a modern brief with proper services and detailing.
New kitchens designed for how people actually live in Palm Beach homes - open to living, connected to the alfresco, with an island that doubles as a bar bench when the deck is in use. Full coordination of cabinetry, stone, appliances, tiling and services.

Structural carpentry, second-fix, custom built-ins, door hangs and heritage repairs on older Palm Beach cottages. Our carpenters do the detail work themselves rather than hand it off - which is why the finish quality holds up.
Elevated hardwood decks, low-set entertaining decks and pool decks. Every Palm Beach deck we build is engineered for the climate and detailed with stainless fixings and airflow in the sub-frame so the boards last and stay flat.
Composite decking works particularly well on Palm Beach properties close to the sand - no annual oiling, colour-stable in strong UV, and no splinters underfoot. Installed with hidden fixings and correct thermal expansion allowance.
Australian hardwood decks - spotted gum, blackbutt and ironbark - built to last on the coast. We seal ends, use stainless fixings within salt-spray zones and coat the finished deck to weather evenly.
Waterproof, humidity-tolerant hybrid plank flooring through living zones is the go-to Palm Beach flooring upgrade. We prep the substrate, install an acoustic underlay and lay wide-plank hybrid with clean tile transitions in wet areas.
Engineered oak and solid hardwood floors for the projects that call for the real material. Acclimatised on site, laid to the correct pattern with the right expansion allowance, and finished to your preferred sheen level.
Battened timber feature walls, tongue-and-groove panelling, and integrated media walls with concealed cabling and built-in cabinetry. We coordinate the cavity sizes with your AV installer so the finished wall works technically as well as visually.
