Projects

The work,
and what it took

Renovations, additions and carpentry across the Coffs Coast — including the build that won two HIA Northern NSW awards in 2025.

Featured project

Emerald Beach House

A three-storey weatherboard beach house that several builders had already declined. Fourteen months later it won Renovation/Addition Project of the Year.

We met with several builders, but no one was willing to take on a house with its bad bones and myriad of potential challenges… We were so happy with his execution, communication and work ethic that we knew he was the right choice to take on the whole build — and he definitely was.
