Your business grew. Your structure got complicated. Now it needs to work properly.
See the 5 common problems
Can you clearly explain which entity contracts on each project?
If the answer changes job to job, the structure may have drifted.
Do the QBCC licence and the contracting entity still align?
Growth often leaves licences sitting in the wrong place.
Are your business assets or profits exposed to project risk?
Plant, equipment, or cash may be sitting where claims can reach them.
Does a past relationship still affect control or finance?
Ex-partners in shareholding or trusts can quietly block decisions.

Construction businesses between $5M and $100M almost always end up with complicated structures. Not because of poor decisions, but because growth forces change.
At the time, each of these decisions made sense.
The issue is that years later, nobody has checked whether the structure still works for the business you’re running now.
These are the problems that occurs when a structure has grown bit by bit over time and nobody has stopped to check whether it still works.
Your licence sits in one company while contracting occurs across multiple entities. That creates confusion, friction, and avoidable compliance risk.

Excavators, trucks, or key equipment sit in the same entity that takes on project risk. When something goes wrong, those assets are exposed.

Overdrafts, equipment finance, supplier accounts, bonds. Individually they seem manageable. Together, they create massive personal exposure.
Read more about reducing director guarantees
Strong years leave cash sitting in the trading entity. If that same entity carries project risk, those profits are a target.

A former spouse or business partner remains in shareholding, directorship, or trust roles. Finance, sale, and decisions become harder than they should be.

Your accountant understands tax, but may not understand how structure decisions affect finance, licensing, or risk exposure on live projects.
Your lawyer can draft documents, but often does not see how those documents interact with lenders, insurers, or the way construction businesses actually operate day to day.
Most construction groups do not fail because of bad advice. They struggle because advice is given in silos, and nobody is responsible for stepping back and asking whether the whole structure still works.
At Blaze Business & Legal, business advisory, legal and financial thinking are brought together so structure decisions make sense commercially. And we help you tidy up your construction group structure so it is workable going forwards.
A clear process, a fixed fee, and an outcome you can act on.
You provide existing entity details and the key documents you already rely on. We keep the inputs practical, not a paperwork exercise.
We map contracting, assets, staff, cash, and control across the full group so the structure makes sense as one system.
We pinpoint where risk is sitting, where lenders get stuck, and where legacy entities or ex-partner links create friction.
You receive a prioritised plan that fits operations. It shows what to fix first, what can wait, and what changes are not worth it.

A Construction Business Structure Review gives you a clear view of how your group currently works, where risk and control sit, and what to fix first without disrupting operations.
Changing your structure straight away is not always the right move. The review is designed to prioritise the changes that matter and avoid changes that create cost, delay, or new risk.
Old entities and ex-partner links are common in construction groups. The review shows where those links still affect decisions, finance, sale readiness, or control so they can be addressed in the right order.
If you already know you want clarity on the structure itself, the review is the right starting point. If you want us to confirm the best service first, book a $550 Initial Strategy Session and we will recommend the next step.
Implementation can be handled in a structured way after the review, based on the roadmap and priorities. This keeps changes practical, staged, and aligned to how the business actually operates.

Most construction business structures change with add-ons over time as the business grows. Most don’t need a full rebuild. We start with understanding what still works, what does not work and what changes need to be made + priorities.
If you want clarity before you commit, the Initial Strategy Session helps you confirm the right starting point.
