Mooloolaba Builders

At Pacific Blue, we’ve spent over two decades building on the Sunshine Coast. From waterfront homes to tightly held residential pockets, we understand how to bring a home together in a way that feels considered, functional, and built to last.

Company Announcement
Buderim Builders
Buderim is unlike anywhere else on the Sunshine Coast. Elevated blocks, dense greenery, coastal outlooks and established streetscapes all bring a level of complexity that requires experience to navigate properly.
At Pacific Blue, we specialise in building custom homes that respond directly to their site. As experienced Buderim builders, we understand how to work with sloping land, protect privacy, capture views and manage access constraints... all while delivering a home that feels considered, functional and built to last.
This isn’t about applying a standard design to a premium location. It’s about designing and building a home that belongs there.

The team took these potential issues in their stride, and always had solutions/options to any concerns that arose.The moment we handed our project over to the Pacific Blue team, it was stress free and such an enjoyable experience. We found that going through the design ideas, selections and estimates that they were immensely helpful and patient. Our build was completed in less than the time of the build contract, and to an extremely high standard. Their eye for detail is impeccable and we couldn’t be happier with how our house was presented on the day of handover. We are immensely thankful to the amazing Pacific Blue team, and would highly recommend them to anyone wanting an enjoyable, stress free and exceptional quality build."
As a custom home builder, we were very impressed with their ideas and support throughout the whole build process. All their team, and contractors, were easy to deal with and professional, which was important to us especially as we were living on site during the build. No idea or issue was too big for the Pacific Blue team to accommodate, including my 7am Monday request for specific insulation on the day of plastering!
Our home is perfect for our rural lifestyle, which only a custom home designer can offer by working with us for a personalised plan for our block and our family and farming needs.
We would not hesitate to recommend Cameron, Drew and their team to help design the home of your dreams. Thankyou Pacific Blue Custom Homes!"
The next step was to have a face to face conversation with Studio SORA. They were so engaging and really helpful, listening to all our plans and ideas and making us feel like anything was possible. We left feeling really excited and impatient to see what they came back to us with.
Fast forward after more face to face meetings and throwing lots of ideas around, we were so happy with the design we came up with. Between the team, Pacific Blue have created the most beautiful, liveable , individual and beautifully crafted home. It really has the Wow factor ! All our friends are just blown away by it. Drew led the boys onsite who were all so polite and accommodating to our visits and requests and Drew liaised with us constantly and once again nothing was too much trouble.
In the background everyone worked behind the scenes keeping all the orders coming through in time (all during the most challenging of covid times) We love our beautiful new home and have never been more happy with a builder. We have built a few times now but this is the favourite by far. We would recommend Pacific Blue to everyone. Call them and have a chat . They will build you your dream home that you will never want to leave."
We were able to customise our build along the way to ensure the end result was exactly what we wanted. The Pacific Blue team were so patient and went above and beyond to bring our dream home to life!
Their communication and quality of work absolutely exceeded our expectations as first time home builders. Highly recommend."
They navigated the difficult building climate with great professionalism which put us at ease in a time that could have been incredibly stressful. We have been recommending the PB team since the moment we met with them, and will continute to do so. If we ever build again it will most certainly be with Pacific Blue."
From the initial consultation to the final handover the entire team at Pacific Blue have been outstanding. They actually listened to what we wanted and worked with us to accommodate our design wishes and our budget needs.
Our site manager and the trades involved were all top notch and there was no problem with communication through the build. Likewise with any issues that were raised there was no delay in getting things reworked or amended.
The final product is a fantastic home that is well above other builders.
Can't rate them highly enough!! 10/10"
The planning phase was so thorough and considered, and once the actual build commenced, we had absolute confidence that Pacific Blue was going to deliver a house that is absolutely spectacular!! And they did not disappoint!! The communication by all members of the team was outstanding from start to finish.
We had a challenging block of land to build on and this was no impediment to Pacific Blue creating us a house that maximised the land and made the best use of the block.
We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Pacific Blue as a builder. They were fantastic to work with!"
All team members are professional, collaborative, experts in their areas, and very easy to work with. They have great communication with their clients at every step of the construction process.
We’re so happy with the end result - very high quality finishes and attention to detail. I highly recommend the Pacific Blue team and can’t wait to work with them again."
We have had nothing but a great experience dealing with Pacific Blue Custom Homes. Every member that we dealt with at Pacific Blue were professional, competent and genuinely caring people.
We felt very fortunate that our home build ran very smoothly considering knowing and hearing the many horror stories that are out there with builders and building catastrophes.
The whole team from start to finish along with the entire experience being impressive from the initial greeting, the original design stage and the selection process with Studio SORA, and to the key handover with Drew and Tim.
Thanks Pacific Blue from Duane & Jenny
