It’s evident that life in South East Queensland has undergone significant changes over the last five years.
Housing affordability has emerged as a key challenge, leading many individuals and families to explore smaller, more affordable housing options such as cabins, tiny homes, and granny flats.
These alternative housing options can provide solutions for people not just seeking more cost-effective and compact living spaces, but those who want to add significant value to their property as well.
Our family-owned company has been building cabins in Southeast Queensland for over 12 years, and we have a strong track record in bringing cabin dreams to life. Our expertise and experience in this field can be valuable to those seeking affordable and practical housing solutions in the region.
Our sustainability and eco-friendly features in cabin designs can align with the growing interest in environmentally conscious living, making us the perfect small home builders for you and your family.
We want to provide people with affordable and comfortable living spaces and contribute positively to the community and the evolving housing landscape in Southeast Queensland.
What our Cabin Builders in Brisbane Can Do
We’ve structured our pricing with escalating options and with the emphasis on the open plan option where we build the shell and you do the fit out. This is the best value for money option.
Class 10
– The cabin wall on a class 10 option only has a “single skin” and this option is more for storage, hobbies room etc. It is not permissible to live in or work from.
Class 1 – “Open Plan”
– The next level is Class 1 “open plan”. These cabins walls are studded out and insulated to form a second skin. This option is ideal for a home office, additional bedroom / guest space / multi use room. It has power points and smoke alarms installed as standard and you can add an air conditioning unit. On the larger cabins (Fitzroy size and up) you may want to add an internal room with a privacy window so you can then fit out an ensuite at a later date. The only additional unknown cost is connecting the cabin’s electrical sub board (the cabin sub board is included in your pricing) to the house’s mains sub board. This cost varies from site to site and each job is quoted separately. Customers can choose to use their own electrician for this connection if they so wish.
Fully Fitted “Turn Key”
– This is a class 1 cabin that we add full ensuite including tiling and waterproofing, showers, toilets, vanity etc and a kitchenette/wet bar etc. Our small home builders will do the full fitout.
The only additional unknown costs are connecting the cabin’s electrical sub board (the cabin sub board is included in your pricing) to the house’s mains sub board and connecting your plumbing to the house’s infrastructure. These costs vary from site to site and each job is quoted separately. Customers can choose to use their own trades for these connections if they so wish.
With all our class 1 options the state government has introduced new legislation that impacts our product directly. They are:
(a) we need to install wireless smoke alarms in every cabin that have the ability to be interconnected with your primary dwellings smoke alarms
(b) if you don’t have solar on your property you have to install a minimum 1kw solar system. To negate this, we can extend our decks and awnings out to 2m and add an external fan.

No, if you’re wanting to use your cabin as a home office, extra bedroom, pool house etc. it will need to be certified. It won’t be exempt.
Can You Assist with Council Approvals?
Yes, our team of small home builders (and other team members) can manage all your council approvals.
