about us
The House Removal Professionals
Welcome to Ocean and Outback, the house removal professionals. A family owned and operated company, established in 1996, we have been in the home removal business in Queensland, for three generations.
We are the leading house removals company in Gympie and pride ourselves on the quality not quantity of our work, as well as the friendly, professional service we provide.
Moving your home can be a daunting process so we work hard to provide a stress-free start to finish service. Our experienced house removal team are dedicated to delivering our customers a quality finished product whether they are relocating, restumping or raising or lowering your home.
We have one of the largest house removals trailers in Australia, all hydraulic and completely steerable and can move houses of any size, any distance. While most of our house removals are around Gympie, the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane we have moved houses from the Gold Coast to Normanton and as far as Bidourie.
Of course, we have comprehensive insurance and a current QBCC Builders License (no. 77094).
So, if you have a home that you would like raised, lowered, restumped or relocated, or if you are in the market to buy a removal home – then please, contact us now.
our services
HOUSE REMOVALS
Ocean and Outback are the experts at relocating homes. We can relocate and stump your existing home or one that you have purchased from elsewhere. Naturally, we also have relocation houses for sale which we can offer as a package. These houses include delivery, stumping, plans and engineering.
HOUSE lifting
Perhaps you would like to raise – or even spin – your house to capture a better view or aspect. House lifting can also provide additional living space for an extension. We have many years of experience house raising and can complete the whole process in a week, without even emptying the house of its furniture.
re-stumping
Older houses often need to be reinforced or re-stumped, particularly if renovations are being made. Our expert team offer a fast, efficient house re-stumping service utilising either galvanised steel, concrete or treated hardwood. We can also provide structural steel or hardwood bearers if they are required.
experience matters
When it comes to relocating homes, you want to go with experience. Ocean and Outback House Removals have been relocating homes in Queensland since 1929.
Our house removal specialists have years of experience in house raising, lowering, re-levelling house re-stumping and even spinning.
