Our story

Built to close a clear gap in the Queensland market

Innovare Commercial was established to serve clients who needed a builder with genuine hands-on experience across multiple commercial sectors, deep knowledge of compliance obligations, and the project-management discipline to deliver on time without surprises.

The Innovare Group has operated across Brisbane and South East Queensland for a number of years — a portfolio spanning corporate tenancies in Brisbane CBD and South Brisbane, medical suites in Chermside and Spring Hill, retail shopfits across Gold Coast centres in Robina and Southport, and hospitality venues in Fortitude Valley and the inner south. That experience is embedded in every project we take on.

Our directors bring backgrounds in project management, construction law and trade supervision. We're not a design-only firm that hands off to a builder — we are the builder, which means our clients have a single point of accountability from concept sign-off through to practical completion and the defects liability period.

Our capabilities

Across every commercial building class

We build across all classes of commercial and public building under the National Construction Code — Class 5 offices, Class 6 retail, Class 9 health and aged care, Class 10 ancillary structures, and associated Class 7 and 8 warehouse and industrial spaces.

We also self-perform strip-out and make-good, which lets us bid on end-of-lease restorations and combined strip-and-refit projects with full scope control.

  • Architectural documentation coordination
  • Hydraulic and mechanical services coordination
  • Structural steel and mezzanine construction
  • All internal fitout trades — joinery, flooring, partitioning, ceilings, electrical, data
  • Health & safety plan preparation and site management
  • Building approval and certification coordination
  • After-hours and staged works scheduling
Our approach

Three foundations behind every successful fitout

Clarity of scope, honest communication, and disciplined site management.

BEFORE

A fixed-price proposal, line by line

We conduct a detailed site inspection and produce a fixed-price proposal with a comprehensive scope of works. We don't quote lump sums that hide inclusions — everything is line-itemised so you know exactly what you're getting.

DURING

Weekly reporting & coordination

Our project managers provide weekly progress reports and maintain open communication with your representative, the base-building manager and relevant authorities — with daily WHS compliance and quality hold points throughout.

HANDOVER

A thorough defects walk

We conduct a defects walk with you before issuing a Certificate of Practical Completion. Our defects liability period follows industry-standard terms, and our aftercare team responds promptly to any post-completion issues.

    Serving Brisbane & Gold Coast

    Where we work

    Our Brisbane projects are concentrated in the inner city and middle ring — Brisbane CBD, South Brisbane, Fortitude Valley, Spring Hill, Milton, Toowong, and south-side suburbs including Eight Mile Plains and Upper Mount Gravatt. On the north side, we regularly work in Chermside and Aspley.

    On the Gold Coast, our strongest concentration is the commercial corridor through Southport, Bundall, Robina and Varsity Lakes. We also service the broader SEQ region and travel to regional Queensland for appropriate project sizes.
