An Urban Cribs home is a refined contemporary residence built using a hybrid construction model that combines Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) with traditional on-site building.

Our homes are designed for real Australian conditions, offering high resilience, thoughtful architecture, and long-term performance — while reducing build time and minimising site costs.

Urban Cribs homes are constructed using a hybrid MMC approach.

Key components are manufactured using controlled, high-precision processes, while foundations, assembly, and completion works are carried out on site by licensed Australian trades.

This approach allows:

• Faster build times
• Improved quality control
• Reduced site disruption
• Greater cost certainty

Construction is carried out by:

Kerdic Pty Ltd
QBCC Licence No. 22903

Urban Cribs currently builds across South East Queensland, including:

• Brisbane
• Ipswich
• Gold Coast
• Sunshine Coast
• Toowoomba

Projects outside these regions may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Urban Cribs does not operate traditional display villages.

We do, however, have a compact demonstration home at our Darra office in Brisbane, available to inspect by appointment only, allowing you to view included finishes and understand our design approach.

Urban Cribs homes are delivered fully finished and turnkey.

Standard inclusions include:

• luxury custom cabinetry throughout
• custom fitted built-in wardrobes
• premium kitchens with non-silica quartz benchtops
• floor coverings, lighting, and ceiling fans
• double-glazed toughened glass windows and doors
• Rockwool insulation and high-performance building envelope
• N3 wind rating and seismic-rated structure
• low BAL rating as standard
• dual-layer sealed roofing with hardened steel waterproof backup

Full details are available on the Standard Inclusions page.

Urban Cribs homes are elevated and designed to work with the land, not fight it.

This typically:

• reduces excavation
• minimises retaining walls
• lowers foundation and slope costs

In many cases, foundation and slope variations are less than half those of traditional builders.

Yes.
Sloping blocks are often well suited to Urban Cribs homes due to our elevated foundation systems.

Up to 300mm fall across the pod footprint is included in standard allowances. Steeper sites may require additional engineering or works, which will be assessed during Site Discovery.

Once approvals are in place and construction commences, build time typically ranges from 2 to 6 weeks, depending on design complexity, site conditions, and selected finishes.

The hybrid MMC process allows approvals and component manufacturing to occur in parallel, reducing overall project duration.

Approval requirements vary by council and site.

Urban Cribs will guide you through the process and confirm requirements during Site Discovery.

Urban Cribs is 100% Australian owned and managed.

Certain structural components are manufactured offshore to:

• access globally certified materials
• maintain consistent quality control
• reduce construction time and material waste

All homes are completed in Australia by local trades and fully comply with Australian building codes.

Yes.

Our homes feature:

• high-performance insulation
• airtight sarking systems
• double-glazed windows and doors

Optional systems such as solar, batteries, and other energy solutions can also be incorporated where required.

The first step is Site Discovery, where we:

• review your site
• confirm suitability
• refine accurate pricing

If you’re unsure whether Urban Cribs is right for your site, our team can provide an initial assessment before you proceed.

Urban Cribs primarily delivers homes from a curated range of proven designs to maintain quality, efficiency, and cost certainty.

Custom builds may be considered depending on:

• current workload and production capacity
• design complexity
• site conditions

Each custom request is assessed individually. Where accepted, custom projects may involve adjusted pricing and extended timeframes.

We recommend discussing custom requirements early to determine feasibility.

We build our residential homes to a standard internal height of 2.4m.

You will be given an indication of the commencement and completion dates before you place your order.

Due to the nature of installation and getting council approval for your home time periods can vary. Once you have decided to go ahead with site discovery, our team can start drafting your home onto your site plan and start the approval process. Production time is about 8-10 weeks plus 4 weeks for shipping, you can expect to wait around 14-16 weeks once approval has been issued.

Absolutely, our team have the expertise to build the cribs to BAL-29 and BAL-40 if required. However, this will be an added cost and must be discussed with our team prior to production.

All of our homes are assembled from a steel frame with no structural timber in the construction, which makes them termite resistant.

(NOTE: Owners must do their own inspections or engage a professional to check for breaches)

Yes, all our homes are insulated, which may reduce the need for heating and cooling depending on the climate you live in. We use Rockwool batts in the walls and ceiling. All the windows are double glazed, which minimises heat loss and transfer.
