With over 100 years of combined experience, we understand what makes a house feel like a home. The moment you walk into one of our homes, you’ll see the care, craftsmanship, and thoughtful attention to detail that make Wright Choice Homes truly special.
At Wright Choice Homes, we understand the unique challenges of building in North Queensland. Our homes are designed for year-round comfort in a tropical climate and built to withstand wet season conditions. Here’s why we’re the Wright choice:
From your very first consultation to the moment we hand over your keys, we provide hands-on support and guidance. We take the time to understand your family, lifestyle, and needs, so building your dream home feels simple, personal, and stress-free.
We keep you informed at every stage of your build. Clear, honest communication ensures you always know what’s happening, so you can relax and enjoy the process.
Every home we build is made with care, skill, and premium materials. Our depot-controlled process ensures every detail is just right, and our comprehensive warranties give you confidence that your home will stand the test of time.
Our commitment doesn’t end when you move in. We continue to offer guidance and assistance, making sure your home remains comfortable, functional, and exactly the way you want it.
We love making homes that feel uniquely yours. From cosy one-bedroom retreats to spacious four-bedroom family homes and granny flats, we can tailor any floor plan to fit your block, lifestyle, and family needs.
Every Wright Choice home comes with thoughtful, high-quality features that make life easier and more comfortable: sturdy steel frame Wood frame construction, energy-efficient insulation and windows, ducted air conditioning preparation, covered outdoor entertaining areas, modern kitchens with stone benchtops, quality flooring, and sustainable materials wherever possible.
Our homes are designed for local living. Thoughtful ventilation keeps interiors comfortable, durable windows and doors provide safety, elevated designs handle challenging sites, and outdoor areas are practical and enjoyable.
Building your dream home should be exciting, not stressful. At Wright Choice Homes, we make it simple. Here’s how:
We start with a conversation about your needs, budget, and your Cairns property. This helps us figure out the modular, pre-fab home that’s just right for you and your family.
Next, we work together to customise your floor plan, pick finishes, and add features that fit your lifestyle and the local climate. Looking for something more standard? Our design have got all you need. It’s all about creating a home that feels like yours.
Council approvals can be tricky. Once you’ve got the home of your dreams, we connect you with trusted consultants to help with building approvals.
Your home is built in our depot, where every detail is checked and quality is guaranteed. Building off-site means no weather delays and a smoother process from start to finish.
When your home is ready, we deliver and install it right on your site. We manage everything along the way so you can simply move in and start living stress-free.
Our modular homes are designed to make life easier, more comfortable, and more enjoyable for families in North Queensland. Built in a controlled environment, each home is crafted with care and attention to detail before being delivered and set up on your property. This means less stress for you, faster move-in times, and a home that feels ready to live in from day one.
Because we build in our construction depot while your site is being prepared, your home is ready faster. No long delays, no weather holding things up – just a smooth, stress-free path to moving into your new space.
Every detail is carefully crafted under strict construction conditions at our depot, giving you a home that’s solid, durable, and built to last. You’ll notice the care and precision in every corner.
Our process keeps costs predictable by reducing labour and material waste, without ever compromising on comfort or style. You get a beautiful, functional home that’s great value for money.
Our homes are designed to handle the tropical North Queensland weather. From cyclone-rated construction and superior ventilation to energy-efficient insulation, heat-reflective roofing, and covered outdoor areas, we make sure your home stays comfortable all year round.
Open-plan living, clever storage, and flexible layouts mean your home works perfectly for your family, whether you’re a first-time buyer, downsizing, or investing. You can also customise your floor plan to suit your block and lifestyle.
Unlike traditional on-site construction, modular construction is a modern way of building transportable homes. Each home is fully constructed in a controlled depot environment, then delivered to your property as a single, complete building, ready to live in. This ensures consistent quality, reduces weather delays, and allows for precise attention to detail that’s harder to achieve with traditional builds.
Yes! Our transportable modular homes use the same materials and building standards as conventional homes. And, because they are built in a controlled environment, every fixture, joint, and finish is carefully checked, giving you a precise, long-lasting, and high-quality home.
Absolutely. All our homes comply with the National Construction Code (NCC) and Queensland building standards. They meet strict safety, structural, and energy-efficiency requirements, and we provide full certification and warranties.
Yes! You can start with a standard design or create a custom layout to suit your lifestyle. This includes adjusting floor plans, selecting finishes, adding rooms, or incorporating energy-efficient features. Our team works closely with you to make your home truly yours.
Modular homes are permanently installed, built to foundation standards, and designed as long-term residences. Transportable homes are often designed for easier relocation or temporary placement.
Most transportable modular homes take 6–12 weeks to build in our depot, depending on the design (Site preparation and approvals happen at the same time) Once delivered, installation takes 1–2 days, followed by 2–4 weeks of on-site finishing.
Our pricing typically includes:
We provide detailed, transparent quotes so you know exactly what’s included. Optional upgrades, site preparation, and council fees may be additional.

Jocelyn SmithTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We came to Wright Choice Holmes with a request of building two and a half of their Lady Elliot's with them being placed in a V adjoined with a wood deck and covered by a fly over roof all with our custom fit out. It is all completed and looking pretty spectacular. We could not be happier with the start to finish process and attention to detail we went through with Portia and their crew. We highly recommend WCH if you want to think out of the box and do something unique and different. Jocelyn and Ray. Kylie LeemanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Words cannot express the amazing experience of our granny flat build. From start to finish, Wright Choice Homes have excelled in both quality and service. From the first day we met Portia at the Tiny Home Expo until the handover day of our awesome granny flat has been the most incredible experience. Portia was our go to at Wright Choice homes and her service is second to none. Nothing was too much trouble, and she was so prompt, efficient and incredibly helpful through the entire process. Yes, there were hurdles with council and energy efficiency etc along the way, but we worked through them together and sorted them quickly. Portia would answer my way too many questions without hesitation and would follow anything up to ensure the process was smooth running. She is a real asset to Wright Choice homes. Then there was Simon who came and checked the sight, organised the move and was always so thorough and friendly. He explained processes and again nothing was too much trouble. Clinton the truck driver was not only incredibly skilled in getting our granny flat on site safely but also friendly and able to also answer my never-ending questions regarding the stumping. Chris the site manager was also amazing and ensured everything was explained to me so that I could understand the process and ensured I was happy with the results. There is not one thing I can fault about this company, and I have built 4 homes. The quality of the granny flat is amazing, and the service is second to none. I would do it all over again in the future and highly recommend Wright Choice Homes. Josh SiblyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently had a modular home built by Wright Choice Builders, a fantastic local family business. The entire process was seamless, thanks to Portia, our point of contact. She was incredibly patient, guiding us step by step and ensuring all our questions were answered. The build quality was exceptional, and the team who delivered the home were professional, skilled, and great at problem-solving. Best of all, the home was delivered in just over 3 months! All costs were made clear upfront with no surprises. In these times of rising inflation, Wright Choice Builders provided a much-needed modern solution. Highly recommend them! Patrick McKoyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Where do I start, I looked at over 60 other display homes by all major builders & was disgusted, poor finishes & didn't want to build what I wanted. By chance I saw Wright's & went straight round from the motorway. Portia took me thru 4 completed homes & in all honesty I was sold fully, high quality finishes, so many options. I explained I wanted to cometely alter a basic plan. The answer was, that's simple, so I fully redesigned their Lady Elliot from 12 to 16m removed a bedroom, bigger bathroom , 1m wide 5m long kitchen bench so it's all lounge room to be lived in & enjoyed. It was so simple & finally after 6 years of looking Wright Choice Homes did what nobody else would. I signed 7 days later & paid what was a great deposit. I chose everything I wanted as its my retirement home. Retiring for me is about creating a great place to enjoy. I was kept up on every step of the build & 7th June it was here. There were 2 minor thing that had to be sorted but they were done immediately. Just to highlight how absolutely impressed im am, I contacted Ch9 & ABC with all info & hope they do a story. If you want a top quality customised home this company is your only choice. On time on budget & the highest quality ive seen, its my 3rd house I've had built h by far the best, I cannot thank Portia & the entire crew for my beautiful custom home. If anyone wishes to call me or see my home I'm am 100% ok with it, just contact Portia. Glenn TooheyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
