Renovations designed around how you live

A good renovation should make your home feel easier to live in, not just newer. Whether you are updating a dated area, opening up your layout, or adding more space, the goal is to improve how your home works every day.

MYBUILD delivers custom home renovations that balance design, structure, trades, and finishes, giving you a result that feels considered from start to finish.

What a full home renovation in Cairns involves

Not every renovation is the same job. A cosmetic refresh means new finishes, paint, flooring and fixtures, inside the walls you already have. A full internal renovation goes further: reworking layouts, replacing kitchens and bathrooms, rewiring and re-plumbing where the existing services no longer suit how the house is used. An extension adds new footprint, which brings in design, engineering and approvals that a refresh never touches.

Renovating an older Cairns home adds a layer most southern renovations do not have. Tropical conditions are hard on a building: humidity, salt air on the northern beaches, and a wet season that dictates when certain trades can work. Materials that perform perfectly well further south will not last here, and older homes often hide problems, dated wiring, timber that has taken moisture, waterproofing that was never done to current standard, that only surface once the walls are open.

That is why we scope thoroughly before quoting, and why our quotes are fixed. Finding out mid-build is what turns a renovation budget into an argument. If you are working out what to set aside, we have broken down what a whole home renovation costs in Cairns and the five things that move the number most.

Cairns Crane Hire had the pleasure of working with Beau and the My Build team to safely lift a site office onto a flatbed truck at Holloways Beach. Great teamwork onsite and another smooth lift completed safely and efficiently. Thanks to the team for choosing Cairns Crane Hire!

MYBUILD are fantastic. They recently renovated our whole bathroom. From start to finish, everyone was professional. Deb was great with communication and ensuring we were informed every step of the way. Our site manager Ben, was great. Always on top of things before any issues could happen. He was friendly, helpful and professional. All his tradies were some of the most friendly, helpful and efficient we have dealt with. The whole team made the experience easy and enjoyable. The finishes are great, everything completed to perfection. Would recommend this company to anyone wanting a great bathroom. Thanks team

We found the process of our Bathroom renovation went to plan as scheduled, extremely happy with Manu's communication and quality of workmanship. Manu went above and beyond to sort any small issues that we had. Manu always answered the phone nothing was too much trouble. We would highly recommend Manu and the team at My Build.

Have had the best experience with My Build. From the first moment of contact they arranged a time to set and discuss our needs. Manu and Nicole could not have been more helpful if the6 tried. They listened, gave suggestions, provide a quote in a timely manner within their stated time frame. They then made themselves available to discuss final plan, and accomodate our changes. Always friendly and professional. Once plan was agreed upon and the final quote sent and accepted, everything went very smoothly. Work started when they said, communication was excellent at every step of the way. We knew when someone would be turning up and what they would be doing. If there was a change of plan, this was always communicated. The MyBuild team were always friendly, timely, attention to details was always at forefront and they cleaned up at the end of each day!, Nicole was excellent at helping us to order fixtures and tiles etc. she made it so easy, I.e. we go here, here and here. Choice was available but we never felt that we were drowning in choice or that there was to little choice. We now have a fabulous bathroom and we are completely happy with Manu and his team at My Build.. So grateful to the My Build team.

MyBuild completed a full renovation of our ensuite which we are so happy with! Very helpful in the preparation and planning stages. The staff visited some of the bathroom and tiling stores with me to assist in the design process and in matching the tiles/grout/intricate details. One or 2 communication issues as we had a few different people involved in the renovation however all issues and questions were addressed quickly and resolved without any issues. Full renovation completed in just over 3 weeks!
