About Us:
Established in 1993, Townsend Building Services is an award‐winning, building and construction industry expert delivering projects Australia‐wide. A family business, we started out as a partner to insurance companies like Alliance and Westpac, assisting clients with catastrophic repairs. In 2017 we created a new \"Facilities\" department to focus on retirement village projects for organisations such as Aveo, Levande, Retire Australia, Carinity, Resthaven, ECH, and Eldercare, and are doubling our revenue in this area every year. On the back of this growth, in October 2024 we took the Facilities department and turned it into a new company called Taylor Building & Renovation Services (TBRS).
With teams based in NSW, Victoria, South Australia, and Queensland, we offer nation‐wide services and won FBA's Australian Family Business of The Year Award (second generation) for the quality of our offerings.
Yet it is our people that make the real difference. Like the employee who started out in a supervisor support role and became our Regional Manager. We promote from within as much as possible and we have a great company culture. Many of our people are long‐term employees – and we look after them. We're continuously improving our business, and our long‐term goal is to be the market leader in renovation and refurbishment services for the retirement living industry throughout Australia.
