Our work
14 jobs, photographed while we were on them.
This is what we have photographed so far, not everything we have built. We started keeping a proper record recently, so the page is short and it is real — it grows by a job or two a month. If you want to see something that is not here, text and ask.
- Photographed on the job as we went, not staged afterwards
- No stock photography and no generated images anywhere on this page
- Where we have the before shot you get the pair — where we do not, we say so
A second-storey balcony taken back to the frame and rebuilt in cedar
The old balcony was stripped down to the structure — the first photo is the house with the railing gone and the beams exposed. New framing went up, then cedar decking and a full cedar railing, cut and fitted on site.

An old sliding patio door taken out and a new one set in the same opening
The old slider came out frame and all, leaving the bare rough opening. The new door went in, and the outside was finished with fresh cedar trim around the frame. The first and last photos are taken from the same spot in the room.

A new cedar deck with a wrapped step down to the yard
Built new below an existing upper deck. Angled corners, boards laid tight, and a wide wrapped step that runs the length of the front edge instead of a narrow stair.
Rooms repainted with the floors sheeted and the trim cut in by hand
Walls and ceilings through a set of rooms. The floor goes under plastic before anything is opened, and the corner shot shows a wall halfway between the old colour and the new one — that hard line is cut in with a brush, not taped.
A shower joint cut out and resealed
Mould had taken hold in the joint where the pan meets the tile. The old sealant was cut out rather than painted over, the surfaces dried, and a new bead run in a single pass.

After A cedar gate built and hung to replace one that had given up
New boards, new posts and proper hinges, hung against the older fence it joins — you can see the colour difference where the new cedar meets the weathered run.
A kitchen fitted: cabinets, worktop, splashback and sink
Base and wall cabinets set and levelled, bamboo worktop cut to the run, tiled splashback, undermount sink and dishwasher in place.
A new wood railing built around an upper-level deck
The old railing was taken off down to the corner posts. New rails and balusters were cut and fitted around the full run of the deck.
A closet built into a bedroom wall, from framing to doors
Studs framed out from the old wall, drywall hung and finished, the alcove painted, then bi-fold louvered doors hung across the front. The floor stayed under plastic the whole way through.
A front porch landing and steps rebuilt
The old landing sat on concrete blocks with metal edging on the treads. It was taken out, and a new landing, steps and railing were built in its place against the front of the house.

After 
A bathtub refinished in place
Everything around the tub is taped off before the coating goes on — the first photo is mid-job. The tub stays where it is; no demolition, no new plumbing.
A large TV hung on a slatted feature wall
The bracket goes on first, then the TV and the soundbar under it. The last photo is a different job — a TV mounted above a fireplace.
Before 
After 
A new cedar privacy fence along a narrow side yard
Full-height cedar boards with a cap rail, running the length of a narrow side yard beside the house.
Flat-pack furniture and closet systems put together and set in place
Cabinets, dressers, a bunk bed and closet shelving systems — unboxed, assembled and set in place.
How to judge any contractor's photos
Every after photo looks good. Here is where to actually look.
Fresh paint and new cedar hide everything for about a year. The four things below separate work that still looks right in year three from work that does not — check them in our photos, and in everyone else's.
Where trim meets siding
A clean brush line with no ridge of old paint underneath means somebody scraped before they painted.
The caulk joints
Gaps around windows and corner boards should be filled and smooth — painted-over cracks reopen in one wet winter.
Under the eaves and behind the downpipes
The awkward places get skipped when a crew is rushing. If they are in the photo, that is on purpose.
The ground around the house
No overspray on the concrete, plants uncovered and alive, floors sheeted before anything is opened.
