Sorry to all my customers but I'll be unavailable for the next couple of months as work takes me overseas. Should be back sometime in July. Look forward to catching up on my return. Keep those projects on ice. No points for guessing where I am. See you all soon.

Recent bathroom renovation, well it's a shower room now, as the bath has gone.
I have replaced the bath with a big 1m2 shower, big enough for all the customer's needs.
With all the problems getting hold of Gibboard, I was able to make use of 'Wallart' product to cover the area where the Gib was removed. I also fitted a shower dome to cut down on the condensation and possible mold build up. I've chucked in a couple of 'before' photos for comparison.
Finished off the job with a new coat of paint, and the customer's happy. Me too.

As set of low riser steps for a customer with arthritic knees. We didn't have room for a slope. The maximum gradient is 1:12 for a slope. So I designed and installed a set of low riser steps, each riser is 100mm, roughly half the normal step. The original concrete steps had various different riser heights, which is poor practise on a set of stairs. Rosemary is really pleased with final solution, and has now found a new project she wants me to do, watch this space.

Designed and built this huge deck a few months ago. The timber I used was Lawson Cyprus. A full 11 metres by 5 metres. I’ve included photos of the stages of manufacture, as a simple record. The customer decided he wanted some storage for his outdoor furniture cushions incorporated in the deck, this was after I had already built the deck's substructure. Happy I was able to accommodate his request.

Upcycled Coffee Table for Starship
$125 All proceeds to go to Starship PICU Appeal.
For this month’s Starship fundraiser I’ve upcycled this stylish wee coffee table. Started life as a timber bookshelf that a friend donated, for me to sell, but no takers. So I deconstructed it, stripped the timber down to reveal some beautiful wood grain. The shelves were jointed together to form the top, the sides were cut to avoid screw holes, and then laminated to form the legs. Finished with Danish oil to produce this lovely satin finish. The design is unique, as far as I know it’s not copied.
Size is 70cm long, 50cm wide and 38cm high. I believe it’s Rimu, but happy to be corrected if not. Viewings are welcome. Photo’s of bookshelf shows the before image. Props not included in sale.

Another happy customer. Just finished this 20m driveway fence. I've thrown in a picture of the old dilapidated fence, so you can see the before and after.

Fundraiser for Starship

A friend has donated some small topiary trees (approx. 90cm including pot), and I have made wooden planter boxes out of decking offcuts. The planter boxes come painted white or black (see pics). If you want to paint them your own colour I’ll supply them unpainted. The planter box has no bottom to it, it sits over the plastic plant pot, and visibly seem to ‘float’ off the floor as the feet are recessed. They measure 40Lx42Wx30H cm.
By continually trimming the head of the tree you can form it into a ball shape, but they are not there yet. A pair of these planter and topiary trees would look great either side of an entrance way.
All proceeds from the sale of these planters and trees will be donated to Starship PICU appeal.
Price is $65, this includes topiary tree, plastic plant pot and saucer, along with the wooden planter box. You can buy a pair for $120.

Some before and after photos of a customers kitchen. A tricky Rimu patch up as I was not allowed to replace the moulding. Then some gib work and tiling.

Replaced shed wall, wish I had a before photo. The tin that came off had been on this shed for for decades, and must have been rubbish when it went on. Really pleased with finished project, colorsteel Titania. Just needs timber window surrounds painting, but customer wants to finish that themselves.

The great wall of Mot. Built a number of wooden paling fences totaling 90m, but a huge 2.5m high. Needed a ladder to nail every paling, what joy 😆 Haha
one of the fences has a 25mm gap, not sure which I prefer. What do you think? 🤔
