Leaders in digital innovation
We pride ourselves on being at the forefront of digital innovation. Whether it’s software programs for scheduling and project management or online portal systems, we’ve got the tools available to drive every development towards a positive outcome. Ausmar Commercial can accurately forecast build project timelines and keep workflow running with outstanding efficiency.
We can also help link your management systems into ours. Therefore, you’ll never be left wondering about building progress again.
With an open record of tasks and communications, Ausmar Commercial are able to achieve a totally transparent builder/client relationship.
A central project management hub
Experience has shown us that there’s plenty behind the scenes that goes into a successful commercial development. You can have the best tradespeople, materials and skills, but without proper management, a development won’t run smoothly.
On the commercial development side of things, this allows us to continually manage and monitor all projects from one central hub. With all of our communications, administration and IT taken care of at one location, we manage projects effectively to exceed all quality standards.
A truly collaborative approach
Our directors Tony, Josh, Richard & Tim all work full time in the business, and have a strong focus on the continued growth of all thing Ausmar. One of the pillars of the business is to build strong relationships with all of our partners to continually develop. We achieve this by taking a truly collaborative approach to all commercial projects, keeping key stakeholders up to date every step of the way.
Award winning commercial development
We don’t do what we do for the awards, but it’s certainly nice to get some recognition of our hard work. Many of our commercial property developments have been awarded by leading industry groups, and we’re always grateful for the recognition.
Our commercial partners have confidence to work with us as leaders in commercial development. That’s because our strong project management approach and infrastructure sets us up for success. When you want an experienced team you can trust, look no further than Ausmar Homes.
Commercial building projects
Ausmar Homes are the experts in delivering efficient project management of all commercial building types. From industrial buildings to offices and retail, we’ve got the expertise you need. A perfect example of this is our $2.2 million Ausmar Group Headquarters and Atelier showroom. The MBA recognised this building with an award in 2017, which is testament to our management of a 10-month build process involving 85 local contractors.
These types of multi-use commercial buildings are our speciality. Our commercial office developments are modern, functional, with an emphasis on staff comfort. Our ability to combine other commercial elements such as retail premises and expansive showrooms highlights our skills in the commercial building space.
With qualified tradespeople forming part of our vast network, and the mostly highly skilled Sunshine Coast commercial builders, we’re well positioned to service all of your development needs. From start to finish, our team can manage your projects with efficiency, transparency and integrity.
Community accommodation
We have a proven record of developing large-scale community accommodation facilities on the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane. Complexes such as retirement villages, over 50’s communities, aged care facilities and nursing homes are all part of what we do. There’s so much work that goes into planning these developments before even breaking ground. So, you want to make sure you’re working with a company who understand the importance of quality planning.
Our track record is strong in this area, highlighted by our work on the recent Noosa Domain retirement village. We use a lean management structure, with project management and shared administration supported by Ausmar Homes. We achieve reduced costs, and in turn pass the savings on to our customers. The Noosa Domain project comprises of over 100 residences split in 3 stages. Rather than building identical units, home owners are able to choose from a wide variety of designs to suit their individual needs.
We also specialise in the development of lifestyle housing projects. Our specialty lies in housing for high-care residents such as the elderly and disabled. We also build entire communities, such as the 180-home Halcyon Landing over 50’s lifestyle community.
It’s these added complexities that may trouble some building companies, but with the strength of Ausmar Homes behind us, we can efficiently build attractive, affordable community accommodation.
Sporting facilities
Sporting facilities are an important part of our community, and we love being involved in their development. The commercial development of sport facilities is always complex, and it’s a challenge we fully embrace. For example, we’ve worked on the Maroochy River Golf Club, and our involvement was recognised with a 2016 MBA State Sporting Facilities award.
The main golf club building comprised of a function room with commercial kitchen, restaurant and bar, gaming lounges, pro shop, offices and amenities /change rooms. We also designed and constructed the golf academy building and all maintenance sheds.
Again, this displays our ability to work in a commercial setting that requires multiple uses. Essentially, we combined a sporting facility with a fully functional hospitality premises. We’ve got a track record of completing large-scale projects in time and under budget.

Halcyon Glades – Caboolture
Rec Club
The Glades Long House is a modern and artistic recreational building located within the Halcyon Glades Over 50s Community in Caboolture. The building and surrounding recreational facilities have been designed to offer residents a grand space to rest, relax and enjoy the outdoors. The Long House is the hub of the recreational area where a pitched, glass entrance set the tone for an impressive space.
To one side, a bank of windows creates a seamless connection with the outdoors, while the pitched ceiling simply lifts the room and creates a bright, welcoming and open space for all to enjoy. At one end of the building stands a grand stone-clad fireplace and at the other end is a wall of stunning timber feature portals. The dramatic timber columns were made on site with workers moving about 185 tonnes of timber by hand to create the striking feature piece.
To the other side of the building stands the most theatrical element of the Long House; the monolithic rammed earth wall. Made from sand, clay, stone and cement, the wall isn’t only visually stunning it is also fireproof, good for the environment and offers excellent thermal mass to help improve temperature control.
Delivered on time within 12 months, the main building features a commercial kitchen, function room, games room and cinema, but the build also included a range of recreation facilities such as a 25-metre heated pool, flood-lit tennis courts, champion size bowling green and pickleball court, plus herb and vegetable gardens.

Ausmar Headquarters & Atelier
State-of-the-art
State-of-the-art and client-focused, the Ausmar Group headquarters and Atelier showroom is one-of-a-kind. Built by 85 local contractors within 10 months and to a $2.2 million facility budget, this grand design centre has been created to inspire.
The two-story building offers an open-plan office for staff on the upper-level, with care and attention to detail clear in every aspect of the staff-focused space. From the boardroom to the work stations, every element is on-trend and designed to offer inspiration and comfort. The building also includes solar panels on the roof, and a bio retention to treat storm water. A life was also included to accommodate easy accessibility to the second storey.
But the star of the project is the expansive showroom, Atelier. Located on the ground level, this space is bright, luxurious and welcoming, offering the ultimate creative experience for every client. In the showroom, clients can see, touch and imagine every element of their new home from the shape of the bathroom sink to the way the water falls from a shower head, from the way Colorbond roofing looks in the sunshine to how different flooring options feel underfoot. Here, clients can choose every aspect of their home without leaving the building.
The showroom boasts a stylish kitchen gallery and on-trend bathroom designs under one roof. All the windows, doors, cladding, tiles, stones and paint options available, as well as outdoor selections presented so clients can see exactly how they will look in their new home.
This client-focused space is unique and has been designed to offer Ausmar clients the chance to enjoy a hassle-free home selection process in a one-of-a-kind building. For added convenience, the headquarters have been centrally located around the new Maroochy Sun Central development.

Sippy Creek Animal Pound
functional and visually appealing
When tasked with construction of a new Sippy Creek Animal Pound our project team worked hard to help create a space that is both functional and visually appealing. The new facility was designed to improve efficiencies by consolidating the existing small and large pound facilities already on the Sunshine Coast, so a range of new buildings needed to be incorporated into the project.
The new modern facility now includes a range of buildings such as the central administration and reception building, a cattery building with 32 proprietary cat enclosures including isolation areas & air conditioning, and a kennel building with 32 proprietary kennel modules.
The facility also includes an assessment area for administering animal procedures, a large animal enclosure complete with race and crush for handling large animals, plus public and staff car parking and adjoining walkways.
Now open, the state-of-the-art facility offers a modern environment for the management of the local pet population. The clinical nature of the building didn’t impact the potential for visual appeal with all areas of the administration building now contemporary and streamline with a pop of colour to add an element of fun to the environment.
The design and layout of the new pound was carefully created to allow for potential future expansion and the ability to service the region’s growing pet population and animal management needs now and into the future. The design was carefully considered to offer a modern facility that is also aligned with contemporary animal welfare obligations and guidelines for all animals from puppies to livestock.
