Specialist remedial builders for Brisbane & the Gold Coast

A QBCC-licensed remedial construction business and a division of Innovare Group — bringing the resources and rigour of a multi-disciplined builder to the specialist field of building repair, restoration and defect rectification.

Our experience

Built by people who have worked at the sharp end of building repair

Innovare Restoration has been built by people who have worked on flooded homes in the days after major Brisbane and Ipswich flood events, inside mould-contaminated apartments in Gold Coast high-rises, on the scaffolding of Queenslander-style heritage buildings in Paddington, Woolloongabba and Red Hill, and in the aftermath of cyclonic storms across South East Queensland.

This hands-on experience shapes everything we do. We understand the urgency of emergency works, the sensitivity required around heritage fabric, the exacting documentation insurers and councils demand, and the long-term consequences of repair work that is rushed, underdocumented or non-compliant.

Our team includes licensed builders, structural estimators, remedial specialists, mould and water damage technicians, and heritage conservation practitioners. Where specialist input is required — structural engineering assessments, asbestos air monitoring, heritage conservation reports — we engage trusted registered practitioners and include their findings transparently in our client documentation.

Common questions

Innovare Restoration operates as a specialist division of Innovare Group, a licensed builder. All works are carried out under a current QBCC licence and are covered by the relevant builder warranties under Queensland law.

Yes. We are happy to provide client references on request, subject to client consent. Our Projects Gallery also showcases completed work with before-and-after documentation.

Core works are self-delivered by our directly employed team. Where specialist trades are required — structural engineers, asbestos hygienists, heritage conservation consultants — we engage licensed and registered practitioners, and they are identified in all project documentation.

We align our water damage and mould remediation practices with IICRC S500 and S520 standards — the international benchmarks for water and mould restoration — as well as relevant Australian Standards and Queensland Health guidance on indoor mould.
