25.01.2022 With the break from the church we are currently looking for work until it starts again. If you are wanting a quote, dont hesitate to call us on 95752458/0427801513. We welcome all enquiries.

22.01.2022 John went for a drive and took some photos of older stone jobs

22.01.2022 Hi everyone, the Apse side of the church is finally competed and now the boys are starting to close in the last side. It doesnt show in the photos, the Apse has eight panels making it an octagon. Looks amazing. (Carol)

21.01.2022 Glen Trommie and Monte Casino Gateways, both built some time ago. Nice to take photos years later and they have weathered well.

21.01.2022 Sorry, I tried to keep the photos to one album but FB doesnt like me today. These Photos are the most recent. Progress is much slower as we work higher, theres a lot more that goes into it getting the rocks and cement up there. This is a two man job and its hard yakka but John and Michael are now on a well earnt 10 day rest. (Carol) We would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

20.01.2022 Hello everyone, its taking time and we have some new updates for you. The boys are on the homestretch but its still some time before its complete. Seems slow but John is a craftsman and prides himself on his high work standard. (Carol)

19.01.2022 We had a lovely day yesterday enjoying a gathering at the house we restored and built additions. The house is a credit to the owners and it looks amazing. The roof and wide verandahs compliment the grand old family home, such a grand lady. Thank you so much for the invite, John was very proud and of course loved all the compliments.

18.01.2022 The higher end of the Church front.

18.01.2022 John has also been busy in his free time tidying up some elements at St Annes in Bindoon. (Carol)

15.01.2022 Final stonework, restoration and new construction is finished. Hopefully we get more photos when the new roof has been added.

14.01.2022 Call or message to have a chat, we are happy to discuss ideas and we will travel for free quotes. We are also very interested in restoration work.

14.01.2022 New look for an old beauty, she can stand proud for another hundred or many more years.

14.01.2022 Update, its a long way up. Slow and steady in tight areas for John and getting the rock up there is massive. (Carol)

13.01.2022 Finished the two confessionals. This week its the beginning of the long climb, progress will be slower as we get higher. First priority is the front of the building.

12.01.2022 Hi guys, we have good news for anyone that is waiting or keen on some awesome stonework. The church has informed us that we have a month or so off from our work on the site. We are looking for jobs to fill in. Contact us if you are interested in any stonework, we will come and have a look or send plans for a quote. Quotes are free. Look forward to hearing from you.

11.01.2022 A small Job we snuck in during the break from the church. Steps and a wishing well.

10.01.2022 A couple of jobs we did a while ago revisited. The feature stone walls look great with the established garden and sets off the lovely seaside home. The limestone gateway is still as it was when we built it, owner hasnt put the gates on or attached lights to the pillars. Going to get around to it one day, I guess.

10.01.2022 Our stonework is constructed with deep footings and built using rock filling, solid structure that will last for generations. Designs are created by the clients and we are happy to advise. Whether you want cladding or a free standing feature. Stonework suits the landscape and is natural to the environment, affordable. Free quotes!

09.01.2022 Gateway piers and retaining walls, using gravel rock.

08.01.2022 Steps and retaining wall

08.01.2022 The Church progress, the stage we were at when we were asked to take a break. work will resume in the new year.

06.01.2022 We are happy to be taking a well earnt break for Christmas and New Year. We have made a lot of progress this year, all be it slowly at times. John turned 65 on Nov 29th, not a bad effort by him to still be doing one of the hardest trades. He could not achieve this without the help of Michael but still a massive job for the two of them. Still a long way to go until the finish but its finally starting to close in and not so daunting as it was last year. Its a huge achievement. (Carol) We would like to say Merry Christmas to all our followers, clients and friends.

05.01.2022 Merry Christmas Everyone, may you have a wonderful day surrounded by those you love. John, Michael and Carol.

05.01.2022 We went back to our favourite Client, the restoration project. This time we built steps and flower boxes to enhance the outer verandahs. Once the garden is established, it will look a amazing.

04.01.2022 The church front stonework all finished, three sides to go. This was a mammoth task for John and Michael, all the windows, ledges and getting the rock & cement up to the work area. It was slow going but so worth it.

04.01.2022 Mogumber Post Office/Store. It was a pleasure to work for the owners and to be a part of the restoration of this lovely old building.

02.01.2022 Maryville Chittering, Sacred Heart Church Work has stopped as they take time to raise money for the extensive scaffolding and prepare for the next stage.

02.01.2022 Retaining wall with steps

02.01.2022 Too wet for stonework today. The Boys are on the home stretch but the area they are doing at this time is very high and slow going. The area is below the Dome and its tricky, also tricky to make it safe and which Sean the Scaffolder is doing an amazing job. It looked impossible but he has put it together so John can work steadily through this stage. Below this area is the exterior view of the Apse. (Carol)

01.01.2022 Closing in the top. Up, up and up. Not far to go now. (Carol)

01.01.2022 Wishing well, a garden delight.
