About licensed builders in Cairns

In Queensland, most building work valued over $3,300, including labour and materials, must be carried out by a contractor holding a QBCC licence of the right class. Some work needs a licence at any value, including plumbing and drainage, fire protection, building design and site classification.

A licensed builder in Cairns holds a licence from the Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC) that names the classes of work they may carry out. The licence has to be held by the business you sign with: a director's personal licence does not cover their company, and a licence in one class does not cover work in another.

TradesField reads QBCC and VIC Building and Plumbing Commission and the Australian Business Register and lists every company with a building & construction class in Cairns. Licence status is free to check. The Construction Background Report adds court, adjudication, ASIC and licence conduct records, graded A to E.

Builders in Cairns: common questions

How do I check if a builder in Cairns is licensed?

Search the company by name or ABN, or open its profile from the list on this page to see its licence number, classes and status. Then confirm the licence on the Queensland Building and Construction Commission's own register before you sign or pay a deposit, because registers change daily.

How many licensed builders are there in Cairns?

323 companies in Cairns hold a licence with a building & construction class, and 320 of them show a current licence as of 8 November 2026. Sole traders are not listed, only companies and trusts.

Does a builder need a licence in Queensland?

In Queensland, most building work valued over $3,300, including labour and materials, must be carried out by a contractor holding a QBCC licence of the right class. Some work needs a licence at any value, including plumbing and drainage, fire protection, building design and site classification.

What licence classes do builders in Cairns hold?

By number of companies: Builder - Low Rise (205), Builder - Open (84), Builder - Medium Rise (38), Builder - Project Management Services (9), Domestic Builder - Unlimited (4), Builder Restricted to Special Structures (3), Commercial Builder - Unlimited (1) and Domestic Builder - Limited (1). The class has to cover the work in your contract.

What should I check before engaging a builder?

That the licence is current and its class covers the work, that it is held by the business named on the contract and invoice (not a director or a related company), that the ABN is active, and that you hold current insurance certificates. Court, payment dispute and insolvency records are in the Construction Background Report.

Listings come from QBCC licence search and Building and Plumbing Commission practitioner register records and the Australian Business Register, last read on 8 November 2026. Only companies and trusts are listed. Status is as the register showed it when we read it; confirm it with the regulator before you sign or pay a deposit.

A listing is a record, not a recommendation.

TradesField brings public register records together so checking a contractor is quicker. It does not replace the authorities that keep them. Records can change after we read them, and a register can hold something we have not matched, so check licences, company status and court records directly with the QBCC, ASIC, the courts and the relevant state regulator before you rely on them, sign a contract or pay a deposit.
