Strengthening Remote Communities Through Meaningful Construction

MPH Projects' commitment to Central Australia goes far beyond urban development.

It extends deep into some of the most remote and culturally rich communities in the region. With a deep respect for Country and community, MPH has played a vital role in improving the quality of life in remote Indigenous townships through targeted housing refurbishments and essential infrastructure upgrades.


Fast, Reliable, and Respectful Refurbishment


The refurbishment programs led by MPH Projects in communities such as Kintore (Walungurru) and Yuendumu (Yuelamu) exemplify a fast, respectful, and highly efficient approach to construction. These initiatives are not simply about repairing homes. They are about restoring dignity, enhancing wellbeing, and creating safer, more liveable environments for families.


Each refurbishment project typically includes:

  • New tiling to improve hygiene and aesthetics
  • Upgraded electrical and plumbing systems to meet modern safety and efficiency standards
  • Full kitchen replacements to provide practical and culturally appropriate cooking facilities
  • Internal and external repainting to refresh and protect surfaces
  • General repairs addressing wear and tear or storm damage


What truly sets MPH apart is their speed of delivery. Despite the logistical challenges posed by working in remote desert locations, MPH consistently achieves 3 to 4 day turnovers per house, ensuring minimal disruption to residents’ lives. Their project teams are carefully coordinated and well trained, operating with a clear understanding of cultural sensitivities and community dynamics.


Building Trust Through Long Term Relationships


MPH doesn’t just deliver projects. They build relationships. Their long standing involvement in these communities has fostered a deep level of trust and collaboration. By prioritising local engagement, including working with Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations and employing local tradespeople and apprentices wherever possible, MPH ensures that economic benefits and skills training remain within the community.


Creating Impact Beyond the Build


Housing in remote Central Australia is about more than shelter. It is a critical foundation for health, education, employment, and cultural preservation. MPH’s work in these areas contributes to broader government and community goals of reducing overcrowding, improving public health, and supporting self determination.


These refurbishments are a clear example of how construction, when done with care and purpose, can directly contribute to social equity and community resilience. MPH is proud to play its part in creating a better future for First Nations people across the Territory.
