About Us

Wilson Bates started Bates Projects after spending years working for other builders in the region — learning the trade properly before going out on his own.

We're a small operation by design. That means you deal directly with Wilson from the first conversation through to handover.

Based in Cabarita Beach, we work across the Tweed and Byron region — Kingscliff, Pottsville, Cabarita, Banora Point, Murwillumbah, Mullumbimby, Brunswick Heads and everywhere in between. We know the area, we've built strong relationships with local trades and suppliers, and that makes for a smoother job from start to finish.

If you've got a build or reno in mind, we'd love to hear from you.

Client Reviews

““We got Bates Projects to install a bar area for us. And honestly is way better than I imagined
And being a tradie I know how hard it can be organising different trades but Wilson done the whole thing and it couldn’t have gone any smoother.
Because of this we are asking for a few more Reno’s around the house.
Would highly recommend him to anyone 10/10”

“Very creative and gives great suggestions to enhance a creative renovation or new build. Professional, prompt, reliable and clearly loves his work.”

“I engaged Bates Projects on a fit-out project to transform our warehouse into a premium retail space. From start to finish Wilson was a dream to work with - great communication, available immediately to scope out the project, and went the extra mile to ensure he delivered what we were after. We’re delighted with the finished product - a premium environment to host customers and create content. Nothing was ever too much trouble, great client management and all done with a smile - I could not recommend a safer pair (team) of hands for a build project than Bates Projects.”
