What We Do Best
Our most sought-after specialty. Whether you’re adding a second storey, opening up the back of the house, or creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living space, we design and build extensions that feel like they were always meant to be there. Crafted to complement your existing home, not just bolted on.
Where character meets craftsmanship. From full whole-home transformations to heritage restores and high-end kitchen and bathroom upgrades, we bring exacting attention to detail to every surface, junction, and finish. If it matters to you, it matters to us.
Most builders take on as much work as they can. Gray Homes works differently.
When you engage us, Managing Director Lachy is personally overseeing your entire project, not managing from a distance but building alongside the team. That means every detail is held to the same uncompromising standard, and any issue is dealt with immediately and not passed down a chain.
With over 22 years of experience across Toowoomba and surrounds, we’ve earned a reputation built entirely on word of mouth for craftsmanship, honesty and results that genuinely exceed expectations. We specialise in premium renovations and extensions, and we’re proud of it. We work with homeowners who care deeply about quality and want a builder who does too.

LETS GET STARTED
Every exceptional renovation begins with a conversation. During our initial consultation, we’ll take the time to understand your home, your lifestyle, and what you hope to achieve from your renovation or extension. We’ll discuss your ideas, offer expert guidance and explore the possibilities available to you. Our aim is to create a clear understanding of your objectives while identifying opportunities to elevate the finished result.
Once we have established the vision for your project, we move into the planning stage. Depending on the scope of works, this may include design development, construction drawings, engineering, council approvals and selections for finishes and fixtures. By investing time in thorough planning, we can deliver a smoother construction experience and exceptional results.
Once all required documentation has been completed, we prepare a comprehensive fixed-price proposal outlining the full scope of works. This allows you to move forward with confidence, knowing exactly what is included in your renovation project. Once approved, we enter into a Master Builders contract that clearly outlines all project details, ensuring transparency and peace of mind from the outset.
This is where your vision begins to take shape and our experienced team of tradespeople and craftsmen work to the highest standards, delivering quality workmanship with careful attention to detail throughout every stage of construction. We understand that renovating an existing home requires respect, communication, and careful project management. That’s why we keep you informed throughout the build with regular updates and scheduled site meetings.
Should you wish to make changes during construction, we will provide clear pricing and obtain approval before proceeding with any variations.
The final stage is where you get to enjoy the transformation. So before completion, we conduct a thorough quality inspection and final walkthrough to ensure every detail meets our exacting standards. Once the project is complete, we’ll provide all relevant documentation and warranty information, giving you confidence in the quality and longevity of your investment.
Backed by our commitment to craftsmanship and customer satisfaction, you can enjoy your newly transformed home knowing it has been built to exceptional standards.
We take on a limited number of projects to ensure every client gets the attention they deserve. If you’re considering a renovation or extension, reach out early because we’d love to hear what you have in mind.

EXCELLENT Based on 43 reviews Posted on Janelle BaileyJuly 20, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’d recommend Gray Homes to anyone looking for a builder for jobs large and small. Lachlan was lovely to work with and I have a beautiful and accessible bathroom to enjoy.Posted on Dannielle AgostonMarch 3, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional & Lachlan is easy to talk to. Loved the work and the quality. It is great to find a builder that listens. Very thorough and planned, everything is thought of and quoted. Can not recommend Lachlan enough. Thank you for making Renovations so easy.Posted on Lil ShickeyJanuary 25, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had Lachlan from Gray Homes complete renovations on our house, and we are very happy with the finished product. He transformed an old back room into a master bedroom with an en-suite and walk-in wardrobe, modernized our bathroom beautifully, and repaired the ceiling in our lounge room area. Lachlan is an excellent builder. He is conscientious, fair, and reliable. His communication is outstanding, always available via WhatsApp to answer any questions or provide updates. He’s hardworking, honest, and reasonably priced, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Any issues we raised were promptly addressed, and he ensured we were satisfied with every detail. Would go with them again!Posted on Alita MoloneyDecember 13, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our cottage post renovation by Gray Homes put simply, speaks for itself. Everyone that enters comments on one feature or another. How beautiful the floorboards are which in two sections were carefully relocated and laced in, along with the wooden arch detail below the doorways painstakingly stencilled to have the right amount of curve, the way the light hits through the skylights above a ceiling now flush with hidden beams and a new layout that maximises space and enables flow. All of this wouldn't be possible without the innovative ideas of Lachlan, his patience, efficiency, attention to detail and the craftsmanship of him and his team of trades. Gray Homes enhanced the character of the space which now not only looks elegant but feels homely and timeless. My husband and I highly recommend Lachlan, Gemma and the team at Gray Homes for an exceptional quality renovation or build.Posted on Michael Patrick ConroyAugust 21, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently engaged Lachlan and his crew to replace the front deck of our Queenslander in North Toowoomba. Lachlan clearly communicated the necessary design and construction elements and the timeframes required for completion. His team was meticulous and efficient in the execution of the work and their craftsmanship was second to none. I would have no hesitation in using Gray Homes again or recommending their services to others.Posted on Garry WadeJuly 27, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the pleasure of having Lachy and his team renovate our house recently, and couldn’t be happier! From start to finish we were impressed with his attention to detail, communication and level of professionalism. I would have no dramas in recommending Gray Homes for your next project.Posted on Brian HenslerMarch 24, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve had the pleasure of knowing Lach for many years across which time he has completed numerous projects for us. Our latest renovation and extension was another successful process, stress-free due to his diligence, forward planning and open communication. The finished result echoes his craftsmanship and dedication to detail. He is backed with a like-minded professional team of ethical, courteous and tidy workers who made returning home a joy. We have no hesitation in recommending Lach and Gray Homes.Posted on Riley WilkesAugust 6, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are very happy with the result of our renovations with Grayhomes. It was our first time undertaking this kind of project and the whole process was made easy. Lachlan was very helpful, patient and communicative throughout the whole process with an obvious emphasis on service. The whole team was friendly, knowledgeable, experienced and always happy to help. We will definitely go back to Grayhomes for our next round of renos.Posted on Anna GeddesJuly 4, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team at Gray Homes was wonderful to work during a recent deck extension. Lachy kept in constant communication, paid attention to detail and delivered on time. A quality team of builders and a team that you can trust. Would highly recommend and would use again.Posted on Natascha EggerJuly 2, 2022Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Lachlan and his team for a small extension to our house, and we were really pleased with the whole experience. There was good verbal and written communication on where things were at; we were prioritised in their busy schedule because of the arrival of our baby girl; and the finished job was very much in line with the rest of the house's design. Gray Homes was recommended to us, and we would recommend them too.
