The Build & Project Management

  • Most take 2–4 weeks. While we work efficiently, we never rush the waterproofing or structural stages. We provide a firm timeline in your contract, which we stick to.

  • As your Brisbane renovation builder, we manage everything. Our in-house team covers plumbing, electrical, carpentry, tiling and painting. You have one point of contact and total accountability.

  • Usually, no. Most clients stay during kitchen or bathroom work. For larger house extensions, we’ll discuss the practicalities during your initial site visit so you can make an informed decision.

  • Communication is our priority. You’ll receive regular text updates with photos of the day’s progress and a plan for the following day. You’ll always know exactly where your project stands.

  • Yes. We offer in-house 3D design and drafting so you can see your finished space before construction begins. This is a standard part of our pre-construction process for major remodels.

Licensing, Warranty & Insurance

  • Yes. In Queensland, structural work, plumbing and electrical must be completed by a licensed contractor. Using an unlicensed operator isn't just risky. It's a legal liability. Kingston Renovations holds QBCC licence 15390639, ensuring your project meets all Australian standards.

  • The Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC) regulates our industry. Choosing a licensed renovation builder in Brisbane means you are protected by the Home Insurance warranty scheme, which provides long-term legal and financial security for your home.

  • We take full responsibility for our work. If a structural or site issue is discovered, we notify you immediately with a solution and a cost breakdown before proceeding. Our goal is to resolve issues fast so the timeline stays on track.
