A patio or pergola is usually the cheapest way to add usable living space to a Currumbin Waters home. We handle the design, the structure, the roofing and the finish as one job.
If you already have a deck or slab in Currumbin Waters that goes unused because there is no shade, that is usually a quick job to price.

Outdoor living is the whole point of a Queensland home, and in Currumbin Waters that means shade you can rely on in summer and cover you can rely on in a January downpour. That is the brief we build to.
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.
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.
Where a structure needs engineering, certification or a building approval, we tell you at the quote stage and organise it as part of the job rather than leaving the paperwork with you.

Roofing choice sets the temperature under the structure. Insulated panels cut radiant heat and give a clean flat ceiling, single-skin colorbond is the budget option, polycarbonate keeps light coming into rooms behind, and a mix of the two often works best. We also handle guttering, downpipes and stormwater connection so water goes where it should.
Pool-side structures cop the most sun and the most moisture on the property. We use corrosion-resistant fixings, sealed post bases and finishes that survive chlorine and salt, and set out posts so they do not crowd the pool edge or block the view from inside. Where there is an existing deck, we check the frame can carry the new load before anything is fixed to it.

Adding cover to what you already have is usually the best value option in Currumbin Waters. We assess the existing deck frame, bearers and footings, or the slab edge and its thickness, then design the structure so loads land where they can be carried. If the existing structure is not up to it, we say so rather than fixing to something that will move.
The best outdoor rooms feel like a continuation of the living area. That can mean matching floor levels so there is no step down, widening an opening, aligning the new ceiling with the internal one, or carrying the same lining and colours outside. We do the carpentry and the building work, so the connection is planned rather than patched.
UV, humidity, summer storms and, closer to the beach, salt air all shorten the life of the wrong materials. We specify hardwood or treated timber to the right durability class, hot-dip galvanised or stainless fixings where exposure demands it, and powder-coated steel where spans are long. It costs a little more once and saves a rebuild later.
The part you never see decides how long the structure lasts. Footings are sized to the soil and the load, posts are fixed with proper brackets rather than concreted straight into the ground, and tie-downs are detailed for wind. Where engineering, certification or a building approval is required, we arrange it as part of the job.
Access protected, offcuts cleared daily, and honest updates on what is happening and when.
Orange Projects is a QBCC-licensed builder (Licence No. 15620733) carrying full insurance, so structural outdoor work is carried out under licence rather than by an unlicensed installer.
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.
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.
We settle the style, roofing type, timber or steel structure, ceiling treatment and finishes, and confirm anything that affects price before quoting.
You receive an itemised quote covering structure, roofing, fixings, engineering where required, electrical coordination and site clean-up.
Where a structure needs an engineer's design or building approval, we organise the documentation and certification as part of the job.
Footings, frame, roofing, guttering and finishing carpentry, worked around your household rather than taking over the property.
Final walkthrough, defect check, clean site and any certificates or product warranties handed over with the invoice.
Send through your address and what you have in mind. We will inspect the site, talk through the options that suit your house and yard, and give you an itemised fixed price in writing. QBCC Licence No. 15620733.
