Much of our work comes from repeat clients who value straightforward communication, reliable delivery and a team that is engaged from start to finish.
We plan thoroughly, communicate directly,
do what we say and stand behind the products we build.
Informed, involved and accessible.
Tomkins is led by senior people who understand construction from the ground up. Their experience spans site delivery and project management across industrial and commercial work.
That knowledge shapes how jobs are planned, designed and delivered. Decisions come from real construction experience, with a sharp focus on buildability and cost management from day one.
Clients benefit from direct involvement and leadership that stays accessible throughout the project.A third-generation builder, Mike understands every stage of construction, from early planning through to delivery. That knowledge gives clients a direct line to someone who can advise, decide and act.

Our Heritage.
The Tomkins family has been building since 1951, beginning with Edward “Ted” Tomkins and continuing through award-winning Master Builder Vince Tomkins, whose work helped establish the family’s reputation in the industry.
The current business was founded in 1993 by third-generation builder Mike Tomkins and has grown into a respected commercial and industrial construction company with work across Queensland and New South Wales.
Relationships that last. Projects that prove it.
We work with private developers, institutions, government bodies and corporate clients who value experience and certainty of delivery.
Many of these relationships have spanned decades. Clients return because they know what to expect — disciplined delivery and leadership that stays engaged from first conversation to final handover.
From early design input through to handover, we focus on understanding project objectives and building to a standard our clients can rely on.
