With more than 30 years of providing quality services on the Sunshine Coast, Paul Saunderson Builders are no stranger to winning awards for their designs and builds.

At the recent Master Builders Sunshine Coast 2022 Housing & Construction Awards, the team took out the Home Renovation/Remodelling Project over $1 million Award for an incredible renovation in Sunshine Beach.

The Belmore Terrace project was carried out on an original 1989 home, set over three levels and transformed into a dazzling creation.

“Our thanks to the homeowners who were a pleasure to work with,“ Paul Saunderson said.

“Thanks to Chris Clout Design and our network of trade professionals who have been loyal and committed throughout the project.

“Our team is honoured to have been recognised for the craftsmanship and commitment to the trade in this project.“

In the much sought-after location of Sunshine Beach, an enviable view ensured the original dwelling could really showcase the 2021 age of modern beachside living.

The inspiring Chris Clout Design caters for 473 square meters of renovation and new living areas providing the perfect setting for a build challenge.

With works commencing only weeks prior to the on-set of Covid lockdowns in March of 2020, labour hire was isolated within the existing staff to undertake 75 per cent demolition works and carpentry works ensuring the health, safety and continuation of works.

In undertaking renovation and rebuild, the scope of works demanded an unusual approach commencing from the top storey down to the ground floor enabling crane access.

The master bedroom and ensuite takes stage at the highest level, showcasing an elegant bath weighing in at 150kg. This bathroom feature required a revisit to engineering, and with consultation, reinforced beams were found necessary.

The improved living space at the second level offers a heartfelt welcome as the warmth of the timber floors balance, effortlessly with the cool clean lines of the oversized stone kitchen benchtop. This space is illuminated by natural light that bounces through from the ocean to the patio area showcasing the craftsmanship and care taken on this build project.

The sophisticated suspended, glass panel swimming pool and grassed rooftop completes the project demanding attention while offering an elite setting for the gathering of family and friends.

As a member of the Master Builders, Paul has proven his ability and integrity as an established builder on the Sunshine Coast, having snapped up the 2009 and 2007 Housing for Sloping Sites Awards.

With recent opportunities to have completed construction to sloping sites, Teewah Beach and other beachside locations, Paul can offer experience and suggestions to benefit your home using aspects of the natural environment and views.

Paul’s earlier work extends to the open plan and living designs of the North Queensland home.

Where climate encourages the home environment to benefit from a natural breeze and incorporate outdoor entertaining areas; Paul has the qualifications and experience to provide decking solutions, landscaped areas, swimming pool construction and support for all your building requirements.
