Where is this year going?! It’s already March! 😅

We’ve been busy working away behind the scenes, but I thought I’d share a recent job we just completed in Wynnum. This custom sliding door came up beautifully and is a great addition to the space.

More projects coming soon...it’s been a busy start to the year! 🔨

From broken trust to a beautiful new beginning ✨
After being left for 12 months with an unsafe, half-built pool entertainment area and lost money, our clients reached out to us. As a Redlands family, we felt their pain and we were all in.
Proper approvals. Quality workmanship. A space they finally love.
The best part of our job is restoring confidence, not just homes.

Thank you, Benn & Yvette, for trusting us after everything you went through. We can’t wait to see what you do with this beautiful area next! 🖤

Our awesome clients Jeni & Luke didn’t hold back on this one - so big, we had to call in a crane to lift these 366kg beams and 10m insulated panels into place! 🏗️

Now they’ve got an epic outdoor area front & back, ready to enjoy those stunning acreage views in style. 🌳

Huge thanks to Jeni & Luke for being absolute legends through the whole process and trusting us to bring your vision to life! What a project! 🙌

Apologies in advance... I know our clients probably never want to see their old bathroom again 😅 But I'm hoping the after shots earn us some forgiveness!
