“Our original bungalow windows and weatherboards were in a real state. It was difficult to get objective advice on how to best rectify our rot issues. General advice from other trades was to replace the windows and boards - which would have lost all the character and heritage while replacing the woods with sub-standard timber (and cost a lot more). David inspected the areas and was confident that he could restore all areas and he quoted on the spot. The pricing was very fair (for a much better solution). Upon employing David, it was clear that his depth of knowledge and conservation well exceeded anyone else we had spoken to. His detailed and clearly outlined process ensured that all the necessary treatments and steps were taken for the best outcome and longevity into the future. His patience, attention to detail and commitment to doing every job right was brilliant. David is a true craftsman and a lovely bloke. I’d happily (and do) recommend David to anyone.”

“David worked for us last year retrofitting double glazed window panes into our existing timber frames. An exacting job that required many hours of painstaking work. David’s approach was professional but friendly and never intrusive as he was working around the house, both inside and outside. His work was carried out meticulously with great attention to detail and an awareness of always ensuring that his work is of the highest standard. We are delighted with the quality of the finished windows. We would have no hesitation in recommending David for his excellent workmanship and for his honesty and integrity.”

“Our house has a large number of floor-to-ceiling cedar windows that had significant rot in their sills and uprights. David returned those windows to an as new condition using his considerable skills.  We could not be happier with the results.  Highly recommended.”
