Our dedicated in-house team works exclusively on rooming house designs – so every square metre of your design is optimised for natural light, privacy, tenant comfort and optimal income.

Our build prices are competitive with industry standards, but our clients tell us that our standard inclusions are similar to what others charge extra for as “premium upgrades.”
That means you get exceptional value for money, high-quality finishes, and designs built to deliver strong rental returns. We provide transparent, upfront pricing… without hidden extras, forced upgrades, or costly last-minute variations that could have been avoided.

One of the biggest delays in construction today is trade availability. Not with us. Abbott Builders has strong, loyal, multi-generational trade crews ready to start now. These are the same teams who’ve delivered hundreds of houses to spec, on time, and with exceptional build quality for decades with Abbott Builders. No delays. Just progress.

At HYPC and Abbott Builders, we pride ourselves on delivering unparalleled building solutions tailored to the unique rooming house landscape of Queensland. With over 40 years of building experience, and over 15 years in rooming houses specifically, we’ve successfully navigated challenging terrains. From 6m sloping blocks to brick builds allowing site acquisition in more areas at less cost, we solve what others walk away from.

We understand that building a rooming house can be overwhelming – especially with council overlays, compliance, and in-fill sites. That’s why we’ve developed robust systems and an end-to-end delivery process that makes it easy and predictable. From concept to construction, you’ll know exactly what’s happening and when.
