Whether a patio needs approval depends on its size, height, how close it is to boundaries and the wind rating of the site. We work that out before quoting, so the price includes everything.
Tell us about the work you're considering and our team will be in touch within 1 business day.
In Queensland, many patios need a building approval through a private certifier, and some need engineering. Smaller structures can sometimes be exempt, but boundary setbacks and height still apply.
We check your block, sketch the design and confirm with a certifier where needed. The certifier and engineer fees are included in the quote rather than added later.

Building close to a side or rear fence can trigger extra requirements. We measure and design around them.
Span, height and wind rating decide whether an engineer is needed. If so, we organise it.

Inspections and final sign-off are arranged through the certifier so you have the paperwork when you sell.
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.
We will check what your patio needs and give you one fixed price covering design, approval and build. QBCC Licence No. 15620733.
