Our team of master plasterers services commercial and residential construction projects across Southeast Queensland, predominantly within Brisbane and surrounding suburbs.
No job is too big or too small. For homeowners, we can carry out everything from small patches to an entire home renovation. We work with residential builders on new homes and renovation projects, anything from small patches to large-scale high-end architectural homes. Our commercial services include large-scale ceiling and partition packages for school buildings, apartment towers, townhouses, and more, and we can also offer to complete the carpentry component for cladding, framing, and other tasks. Our shop fit-out services include framing, partitions, grid ceilings, skirting, glazing, plastering, and more.
Owned by husband and wife team, Chris & Kim Allen, the “CRA” references Commercial, Residential, Architectural.
We’re a close-knit crew who take pride in our work, and everyone in our team is like family.
Our team consists of a dynamic combination of master plasterers, apprentices, Supervisors, Office staff and subcontractors (when needed), which means we can get projects moving quickly and complete them efficiently.
Everyone has different specialties and skills that allow us to work really well as a unit and excel at a variety of projects, and all our guys can give advice or solutions while on the job, which clients love!
Chris started as a mature age apprentice in 2007. When he became a qualified plasterer he decided to take the leap and start his own business, which he’s been doing for the last 15+ years. A few different partnerships later, we founded CRA Construction. We’re close to our team and many of the staff working for us now have been with us for a long time - Jacob and Isaac for nearly 7+ years!
We’ve built a reputation for being reliable, professional, and efficient and take pride in upholding that title. Our attention to detail is second to none and we make sure to keep clear communication going throughout every job. We strive to ensure that deadlines are met, to the point where if we ever fall behind, even Kim will jump on the tools to help out. If we say we’ll be there, we will.
If you need plastering specialists for your next renovation, new home build, or domestic repair job, simply get in touch.
Chris and his team completed plastering work for us in May 2019 as part of a major renovation at our home. Their work was excellent, they took their time to get the great level of finish on our raked ceiling with exposed beams, and have created a beautiful feature out of this. They were punctual, friendly, communicated clearly, cleaned up as they worked and provided excellent value for money. We'll be getting them back for any further work that's need doing, and highly recommend them!
