SOME JOBS have far more challenges than others don't they? Crooked walls, changing openings, and collapsing render, this one had it all. 🤔 Thankfully I had Ralf with me for some of the "heavy lifting" and I reckon we're both pretty impressed with the end result. Clean, dried in, functional, ready for paint 😍

WINTER. You can never quite tell when it's coming in this state but, it doesn't usually hit so hard and so quick! I've been washed out of my working week in Chudleigh 😭 Nevermind, got some good work done and we've an even bigger and better plan for next time. Including some sun to dry things out! 🌞

I LOVE IT whenever I get the opportunity to break out the hollows and rounds 🤭. This hutch had a temporary plank top and a missing section of moulding at one end. The customers chose some salvaged Mahogany from my stock pile for their new top and I fabricated the new moulding from old growth pine in keeping with the century old period. Now fully functional, aesthetically beautiful, and chock full of old world stories and character. What else could you possibly ask from a piece of furniture you choose to adorn your sacred space? 😍.

THE BEST THING about custom milling draught seals is the opportunity to be period correct. A small bead or cove or as in this case, 7mm chamfer makes all the difference 😍. Even up close, you can hardly believe I've just draught sealed all the front beach side windows on this gorgeous 100 year old home 🥳

A LITTLE MAINTENANCE today in the Hobart CBD. Now I understand why they tag this place Quarry Street Apartments 😍. Nestled away inside the city, if you didn't know, you wouldn't know 🤭

RE-CORDING. It's the bread and butter of my work. Bonuses including getting to visit beautiful homes, meeting the cool people that own them and often, witnessing a little sneak peek into the historical stories hiding inside the walls 🫣

FOR SURE! One of my most favourite experiences in the work I do, is taking a discarded pile of parts from a dirty garage corner and refurbishing the piece so the customer can see what they actually have 😍. After a thorough scrub of all the pieces, I replaced missing glass, installed custom hand made trim and, blended stain into areas of harsh wear. This piece will not be discarded anymore, nor will it be sold. Instead, it has shown its true colours and about to become a welcome addition to the family home 🙏. Functional and beautiful, it's probable this lovely will serve for another run of one hundred years and I couldn't be happier 🥳

JUST IN TIME typically of course. The garden is trimmed back, the picket fence is rebuilt and painted, and the steps are laid and cleaned. Just in time for photos 🤭 House goes onto the market in two days 😍.

BRICKLAYING ON SUNDAY. It sounds like the title of a love song where the guy fails to find love cause he's too obsessed with taken every job to pay the bills and stay happy 🤭

REFURBISHMENT contains elements of restoration, repair, and sometimes renovation too. In every instance I am precious about the conservation of as much historical context (patina) as possible. This nigh on one hundred year old hutch epitomizes the objective. Beautiful now, functional and charming - the individually cleaned and polished original hardware is singing! I'm only glad it's not mine, otherwise I'd surely spend countless hours just looking at it in awe 😍🤭
