About Us
About Swanson Constructions
At Swanson Constructions, we help homeowners across South East Brisbane transform the homes they already love—through large-scale renovations and extensions that add space, function, and lasting value.
With our specialty for homes in the Redlands, we’ve built a reputation for delivering projects that are well-managed, high quality, and professionally run from day one. We work with people who want a better building experience—where the process feels clear, the pricing is locked in, and the end result speaks for itself.


Built on Experience and Integrity
Swanson Constructions was founded with one goal: to do things better than the rest—and to break the stigma of unreliable, untrustworthy builders.
I’m Rob Swanson, and I started this company straight after finishing my carpentry apprenticeship. From the moment I went out on my own, the motivation behind what we do today was the same as it was back then—do it better. We spent years building high-end homes for other builders, sharpening our skills and learning what worked (and what didn’t).
But I was always drawn to renovations. I loved the diversity, the challenges, and the more personal experience they offered. No two projects were ever the same. That passion led us to specialise in this space—and 20 years later, Swanson Constructions has evolved into the renovation company we are today.
A Team You Can Count On
We’re a hands-on team of qualified builders, trusted trades, and professional support staff. Everyone on-site is there because they care about the work and respect the homes they work in.
We also collaborate with architects, engineers, certifiers, and suppliers to keep your build running smoothly, with one clear point of contact throughout. Whether you're opening up your family home or planning for the next stage in life, our team is here to guide you through it—step by step.
What Makes Us Different
We’re not the cheapest. We don’t aim to be. What we deliver is value—through quality work, open communication, and a smooth, transparent process.

- 24/7 online access to your build information
