Patios for Canal Homes in Broadbeach Waters
On a canal block, the view is the point of the backyard. A patio here should frame the water, not block it, which means fewer posts, a slim roof edge and careful placement.

Why choose Orange Projects
Orange Projects is a QBCC-licensed builder (Licence No. 15620733). We confirm the building scope in writing; current licence details and relevant insurance certificates can be requested before work starts.
We inspect the property, then put an itemised fixed price in writing covering structure, roofing, fixings and rubbish removal. No vague allowances.
We are carpenters first, so a structure can be designed around your house rather than trimmed to fit a catalogue kit.
Engineering, footings, structure, roofing, electrical coordination and finishing carpentry are managed by the one team, so nothing falls between trades.
Keeping the view open
Every post you add is something to look around. We use beams that span further, so posts can sit at the corners instead of every few metres. A thin roof edge and a lighter colour also keep the structure from feeling heavy against the water.
We check where the structure can go on your block before designing, since canal properties often have rules about building near the revetment wall.

Setbacks from the water
There are often limits on how close you can build to a canal revetment wall. We check this early so the design does not need to be redrawn.
Fewer posts, longer beams
Steel beams let us span wider openings. The trade-off is cost, so we show you the price with and without the longer spans.

Corrosion-resistant fixings
Salt air near the water means stainless or coated fixings and roofing with the right coating for the location.

Site inspection
We walk the yard with you, check the roof line, ground levels, sun path and where posts can realistically land, and talk through how you want to use the space.

Design and material selection
We settle the style, roofing type, timber or steel structure, ceiling treatment and finishes, and confirm anything that affects price before quoting.

Fixed-price written quote
You receive an itemised quote covering structure, roofing, fixings, engineering where required, electrical coordination and site clean-up.
