New Farm is a peninsula suburb immediately north-east of the Brisbane CBD, dominated by high-end heritage housing, mid-rise apartments along the river frontage, and a strong small-commercial spine along Brunswick Street. The Powerhouse precinct on New Farm Park is a live arts and events venue. The suburb has no industrial land — the trade market is overwhelmingly residential renovation, high-end fitout on peninsula heritage housing, and small-shop refurbishment. Access is by ferry (New Farm Park CityCat), Brunswick Street bus corridor, and road via the Story Bridge or Fortitude Valley.
New Farm is a regular HBG dispatch suburb for the renovation-and-refurbishment trade mix — carpenters, painters and labourers on residential alteration work, plus plumbers and electricians on service and rough-in jobs. We also supply small-shop fitout crews for the retail refurbishments along Brunswick Street and Merthyr Road. Site access here is often tight (narrow peninsula streets, limited parking, heritage-council permit conditions) so crews sent to New Farm are briefed on stopping and material-drop constraints ahead of the shift.
| Typical work in New Farm | Trades HBG typically deploys |
|---|---|
| residential renovations and knock-down-rebuilds on heritage housing stock | Carpenters |
| painters and finish carpenters on high-end residential fitouts | Labourers |
| small-shop fitouts along Brunswick Street and Merthyr Road | Painters |
| plumbing and electrical service work on established peninsula housing | Plumbers |
| Electricians |
Crews come from across the inner north and inner east — Fortitude Valley, Newstead, Teneriffe, Bulimba — with some travelling from the north-eastern suburbs via the Story Bridge.
New Farm work is overwhelmingly weekday-daytime residential and small-commercial fitout, so rates track the Fair Work casual-award floor for the relevant classification with the standard casual loading applied on top. Brisbane City Council enforces inner-city noise and access rules that shape allowable shift hours; sites usually run 6:30–7:00 am starts. Supply of finish carpenters, painters and general labourers is generally solid because the whole inner east has a strong renovation catchment; the constraint at peak is often licensed electricians and plumbers whose availability is best confirmed a few days ahead.
