Our latest job reached a major milestone this week with roof going on!

Keeping it old school with building our own frames on site is a step we take to keep the quality as high as possible, sloping sites always come with challenges but I've been really impressed with the craftsmenship from our team on this one.

Can't wait to see this place with cladding!

Not many new builds are getting a shub these days — but when a client wants one, we build it right.

LVL framing throughout the tiled area means a stiffer, stronger substrate that won't move over time. No flex, no cracked tiles down the track. Just good bones behind a feature worth having.

Level, plumb, and square is just standard work for us—even if the door isn't. 📐

Solid core Rimu is anything but standard, but it’s the only way to do a 1930s classic justice. Heavy as anything, zero room for error, but she's perfectly swung. 🚪

Getting the details right matters—especially when your client corrects you on the era of the house. 🧠

It would’ve been easy to throw a standard modern door in here, but keeping this 1930s character home authentic meant doing it properly. We sourced a custom solid Rimu replica to match the original 5-panel detail, and even hunted down identical vintage beehive handles from an op shop.

Doing it right takes a bit more effort, but the result is always worth it.

Stay tuned—the install is up next. 👇
