On a waterfront block, wind off the water can be strong. The patio needs to be designed for that exposure, with suitable footings and tie-downs.
Tell us about the work you're considering and our team will be in touch within 1 business day.
Water-facing blocks can catch more wind than sheltered streets. That affects footing size, bracket type and whether an engineer is needed.
We check the exposure on site and design to suit, so the patio holds up in storms.

Design set for the site exposure.
Stainless or coated hardware for salt air.

Building rules near the water checked before design.
Materials and fixings are chosen for Gold Coast sun, storms and, near the water, salt air, which is what determines whether a structure still looks good in ten years.
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 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 assess exposure on site and quote in writing. QBCC Licence No. 15620733.
