Building on the Gold Coast

Building on the Gold Coast runs from the northern growth corridor at Pimpama, Coomera and Ormeau to Robina, with homes going up through Nerang and Burleigh Heads.

Temporary poles carry a build from slab to handover, and permanent poles suit new homes and pole replacements after a defect notice. Portaloos and solar cameras are by enquiry here, so ask when you send the address.

03 · How hire works

How hire works on the Gold Coast

  1. 01

    Send your site details

    Your address, dates and whether the street supply is overhead or underground. For mainland addresses within the product's online delivery zone, the form shows the delivery fee. For islands or sites outside that zone, our office confirms availability and delivery pricing.

  2. 02

    We deliver and install

    On the date confirmed in your quote. Our truck needs a clear path at least 3 m wide, so tell us about gates, slopes and overhead obstructions.

  3. 03

    We lodge the Energex paperwork

    We lodge the Connect Application and EWR and email you the EWR number. Your retailer uses it to book the connection and the meter, and Energex usually connects the pole 2–4 weeks after the EWR.

  4. 04

    Off-hire and pickup

    When you finish, contact us to off-hire and we collect the equipment. Permanent poles are bought and stay on site.

Book power at least 4 weeks before you need it. Energex usually connects the pole 2–4 weeks after the EWR.

Long-term hire is invoiced monthly after delivery. Builders running several sites can apply for a credit account, normally on 30-day terms. Apply for an account
