Does anyone know where I can buy a travel adapter for Japan? We have hunted high and low in all the major retailers and haven't been able to find one. Looking for something to keep the phones charged whilst we are away. Also happy to rent or buy your one if you have one … View more

Here is our latest deck refurbishment.
The existing decking had done its job and is off greener pastures (the dump)
The sub framing was is good nick so after adding some structural blocking to stiffen it up, we gave the deck a birthday with some beautiful 140mm Kwila decking.

Here's a little job that's a bit different.
Our lovely clients decided to add a feature wall to their lounge area. Consisting of a hardwood floating shelf surrounded by a two tone vertical batten on a black background. Looks pretty flash I reckon. 👍

Also the phone number she rang me on was blocked so I have no way of contacting her, unless I go back there I guess.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Little sun trap

Howdy Neighbours

Here is a freshly finished outdoor entertaining area.
Our clients were limited for space so we think we have made good use of the area.
Definitely a warm little sun trap which I worked quickly whilst building it. 😅

We originally looked at lifting and relaying the pavers but our clients decided to change the pathway and carport area to a trowel finish concrete with a hint of black oxide for colour instead. Fantastic idea and I think the result speak for themselves. 👍

Our awesome clients installed a "Tiny Pool" in their backyard and engaged our services to extend the existing deck up to the new pool.
The new pool was round in shape so that created a bit of a challenge but we love a challenge and I think we mastered it.
We also constructed a new Boardwalk off the side of the existing deck the leads to a new outdoor shower that is planned in the future.

Our lovely clients asked us to repurpose the existing pavers which worked out fantastic as once we removed them, cleaned them and turned them over we found they were in great condition.
The new (existing) pavers are now on a solid compacted base, clean, level and are ready for summer entertaining. Enjoy. 👍

Well fear not, we have solutions.
This is our latest project where our lovely clients were having issues with ground water seeping through the basement into the house. You can see the waterline on the dirt bank in the before photo.
We had a drainage company install drainage and a automatic submersible water pump to disperse the ground water. Then we installed a block wall with a Waterproofing membrane and scoria in front of the dirt bank. Works like magic and no more water issues.
