ASK DAVE

One of the questions we get asked a lot... “Can we stay in the house while the renovation is happening?”

The short answer? Usually.

But whether it’s a good idea for your project is a different story. Some renovations are pretty easy to live through… others can turn your home into a construction site pretty quickly. 😂

If you’re thinking about renovating and not sure what to expect, give Dave a call. A quick chat before you start can save you a lot of headaches later.

Got a question for Dave? Drop it below it might be next week’s FAQ Thursday. 👇

🔨 TOOLBOX TUESDAY

THE PASLODE WORKHORSE
One of those tools that earns its place in the toolbox. 🔨

Makes the job quicker, easier, and saves the thumb from a beating. 😂

What’s the one tool you wouldn’t want to work without?

I can give too much away, but I've been at Stacks working on a cafe re model in Kiama Downs.

🧰 Toolbox Tuesday

If I had to choose just one power tool, this would be it.

My DeWALT Impact Driver has been with me through more decks, pergolas and renovations than I can count. It's been dropped, covered in sawdust, worked in the rain, and it still turns up ready to go every day.

People often ask what the best tool on site is. The truth is, no tool can replace quality workmanship. But when you pair reliable tools with someone who genuinely takes pride in their work, that's when you get a job built to last.

That's what Above The Rest is all about.

For and trades that follow us... what's the one tool you couldn't live without?

Everyone: is the way to go.
Me: 7ft tall. Hold my beer.

Dropped in to when I saw they had a shark on the lot.

Tidy car (the wife likes it)
Good for leg room (not for head room unfortunately)
But im not keen on an electric vehicle for a work ute.

The search for a work ute that actually fits a 7ft chippy continues.

Drop your suggestions below! And no a convertible is not the answer!

A frequently asked question is... "why do you show so many progress shots on your instagram page"

Fair call, instagram pages with nice polished end of the build shots are great and aesthetically pleasing.

But its not real! Things arent built in a blink of an eye. Its takes skill, time and quality craftsmanship. So yes, obviously I love showing end products... but the process has to be just as neat. No "do your best, gaps the rest here"

Follow if youre interested in seeing more of the building process, not just edited finishing pictures on insta.
