Where we deliver

3 areas in this council.

Cleveland80km from the yard

Bayside Redlands, with the salt exposure and the tight side access that go with an established coastal suburb.

Capalaba70km from the yard

Deep blocks with rear yards that suit a 3.4 metre module coming down the side without a crane.

Redland Bay90km from the yard

Coastal and semi-rural in the same suburb. Which one your block is decides the footing design and the corrosion spec.
