Our Story.
Solaire Built is an innovative construction company, located in the heart of Brisbane’s inner-northwest. Directed by a passionate and leading team, our knowledgeable and committed team continue to work collaboratively and successfully to deliver a range of luxury residential and commercial projects.
Quality is never an accident. It is always the result of sincere effort, intelligent direction, skillful execution and attention to detail. Quality finish represents the wise choice of many alternatives. With this belief, we have managed to establish a proud status in the high-end, luxury housing market within inner-city Brisbane and enjoy bringing these masterpieces to life on a daily basis.
"I would like to say thank you to the team at Solaire Built for the exceptional project they have delivered, being La Fleur. As Architects we rarely get the opportunity to work with a builder who is as passionate about good design and its execution as we are. Their delivery of our design was flawless and to a level above and beyond our expectations and specification. Their ability to deliver such an exceptional project is a testament to not only their skill as builders, but their personal commitment to creating houses which obviate their impact upon the environment.”
