Sheds Upper Coomera
Upper Coomera's newer estate lots sit on sloping ground, so every garage and workshop our shed builders put up here is planned around the slope from the start.

(07) 2802 4427How Our Shed Builders Work in Upper Coomera
The first thing we measure on your block is the fall, which is how far the ground drops from one side to the other.
The Ground
These blocks are shaped with fill, soil brought in and compacted to level the land, and it is often deeper on one side than the other. We design the footings for your block rather than copying what went in down the street.
Getting In
Trucks reach the street without trouble. Inside the block, retaining walls and changes in level decide where the shed can go and how we get materials to it.
Getting a Shed Approved in Upper Coomera
Our shed builders prepare the drawings, get the frame engineered for your site and lodge the approval. We read your estate covenant, the developer's building rules for your lot, at the same time, so the design suits both.
On an estate block, the covenant, which is the estate's own set of building rules, can limit your shed before the council rules do. The estate and the council's planning scheme, its rules for what can be built where, can each set how far the shed sits from the boundary, the wall height, the roof pitch and the colour. We check both before we quote you a size.

Questions About Upper Coomera
We plan every Upper Coomera shed around the approval, the ground and the access.
Who Approves a Shed in Upper Coomera?
Usually a private building certifier. City of Gold Coast deals with planning matters, and on newer lots we check the estate covenant alongside both.
Approvals
Why Would the Footings Change Across My Block?
On sloping estate land the fill is often deeper on one side than the other, so we design each footing for the ground under it.
Site
Can You Cut a Level Pad into My Slope?
Yes, that is common in Upper Coomera. A cut pad is a flat area dug into the slope for the shed to sit on. We design the retaining and drainage around it as part of the job.
Site
Will the Retaining Walls on My Lot Limit Where the Shed Goes?
Often they do. The walls already on your lot and the steps between levels decide where the shed can sit and how we carry materials to it.
Access
What Sheds Do You Build in Upper Coomera?
Mostly garages and workshops, and sheds set on a pad cut into the slope.

Does My Estate Have Rules About Sheds?
Many estates here do. Most newer lots have a covenant, a set of building rules from the developer. Check what it says about size, colour and position before we settle the design.
