25.01.2022 What a ripper of a job! We completely transformed this facade at this Brunswick job (and it took a 7.5 meter high scaffold to do so)!!! We started by ripping all of the existing weather boards down due to them being rotten. At the same time we installed a new larger and more energy efficient window with mirrored tinting to reflect city views! We then wrapped the wall in sisalation paper and recladded it with @jameshardieau cement weatherboards. Very pleased with the outcome I must say!

24.01.2022 The boys had a big weekend at our Northcote project. Weve now got all walls framed, doors and windows in and ready for cladding!

24.01.2022 AfterDuringBefore Our Eltham clients lacked access to the backyard from the inside. In order to achieve this we made a brand new doorway from the existing bathroom and installed this beautiful timber external door!

23.01.2022 A new sliding door unit for a very happy client in Balwyn. What a view they now have into their backyard!

22.01.2022 Our latest bathroom renovation in Reservoir is all finished up now and ready for the tiling and fit off stage! This project began with rotted timber frames, damaged plaster and tiles popping off the walls due to water damage. I replaced timber frames, added a niche, installed all new insulation, hung new plaster and had our electrician install lights, fans and rough in for fit off stage!

21.01.2022 The previous deck in place was only built 7 years ago and it had fully rotted through! Its always worth to pay that little bit extra for quality timber. Very happy clients in Mernda

20.01.2022 It may have been a cold and rainy weekend but that didnt stop us from getting these cypress posts in at our newest Northcote project. Stoked with how much progress we got done over the weekend. Well done boys

20.01.2022 Big weekend working away on our newest decking! The client requested something different; So stay tuned to see what we’ve come up with! . . We did stop to hear the Premiers speech and must admit, we were disappointment that not much has changed..... We’re still super thankful to still have a few empty houses that will keep us busy for a while!... https://www.instagram.com/p/CFosDfzlLdd/

19.01.2022 Who said garden gates had to be an eyesore?! The Melbourne Chippys latest creation for a client wanting to keep their newest furry family member safe, a garden made to look like a timber screen! Swipe to see what it looked like before Call James on 0438 528 994 for a free quote!

19.01.2022 Dividing walls dont have to be boring!!! Check out this custom dividing wall we created to divide a master bedroom wall into a walk in robe. We featured Jarrah timbers to tie into the exposed timber beams and natural features of this brick and mud brick home!

19.01.2022 Lots of progress at our Northcote job. Over the weekend the boys finished the rafters and have fully installed the roof sheets. Its so good when you get to see the project really start to take shape

17.01.2022 Weve had a busy few days over in Watsonia hanging 7 doors! The matte black hinges and door handles against the white walls turned out perfectly No job is too big or small for The Melbourne Chippy- Give us a call on 0438528994 for a free quote!

17.01.2022 Check out this wall I built for a client over the weekend. This is the interior of a hairdresser salon and the clients live upstairs. They wanted a bit more privacy so we built this wall to give them just that. She still needs a lick of paint but Im pretty chuffed with the end result Call James for a free quote on 0438 528 994

16.01.2022 The deck we were working on at our empty warehouse project in Footscray is completed and it looks great (swipe right to see the before)! The client chose composite decking from @outdureliving for a more durable and long lasting product

15.01.2022 As weve had quite a lot of new followers in the past few weeks we thought wed share 5 FUN FACTS ABOUT @themelbournechippy: 1. My misses is a logistics manager for a large renovation company who knows 90% of building materials like the back of her hand (comes in handy!) 2. Most hated job: Hands down installing or ripping out insulation 3. Had my entire car and tools ($45k in total) stolen early last year! Thankfully was covered for car insurance but only $8k of took insura...nce! Lesson learned; always have tool insurance up to date! 4. My favourite Carpentry work is decks, pergolas and laying flooring! I love to see jobs that you can physically see progress throughout the day 5. I just recently donated my boots to @bootsfortradies. Everyone needs to get around this initiative! Doing great things for mental health See more

14.01.2022 Throwback to a job we completed a few months ago! The client contacted us because their existing gate was broken. We replaced it with this secret Merbau and cypress gate as they wanted something that was discreet and ‘hidden’. If something needs replacing you may as well do it in style right?!

10.01.2022 Check out one of my finished projects completed in Eltham!

09.01.2022 Putting the finishing touches on a window recently built and installed at one of our latest jobs. The original window was demod, then I built a new hardwood timber frame, fitted the glass and sealed everything up! Not a bad effort for a days worth of work https://www.instagram.com/p/CB2nNC8FkNp/

09.01.2022 Before > After Another project completed a fabulous client who aimed to create a more functional outdoor space without being totally enclosed. Pergola constructed using cypress posts with Diffused Ice roof sheeting! Merbau deck coming shortly....

08.01.2022 This pretty much sums up how we feel about the fact that we can now go back to a semi-normal workload after today’s announcements https://www.instagram.com/p/CGekSVCFfx1/?igshid=br320dfb7qdf

08.01.2022 Not all walk in robes have to cost an arm and a leg to build! The robe at our Eltham project lacked storage and wasnt very useable. The solution? Simple timber shelving and dividers for hanging https://www.instagram.com/p/CBIK07nFX0e/?igshid=k63f0ntaub6u

07.01.2022 Head over to our Instagram to check out the next stage of our project! https://www.instagram.com/p/CC5iEhrl5xq/

06.01.2022 Spent the last few days working on this beauty based over in Burwood; The client saw all new merbau decking laid, alongside the installation of hand crafted posts and railing. Its the finer details that count

05.01.2022 Another project ticked off https://www.instagram.com/p/CBaVJQBFzRS/?igshid=ixxfm37dj7xd

04.01.2022 New door built at one of our recents projects. Originally this was just an open walkway but we built and installed this new door which goes into the clients shed. Took this sneaky shot before we cladded it Head to: https://www.instagram.com/p/CD03-5vFnmD/?igshid=wgvbfwahvgok

04.01.2022 We had a busy weekend fixing a sunken in roof!! Before During After Head over to my Instagram page to see my latest project! https://www.instagram.com/p/B_cId7rgeoc/?igshid=r2tlxjeu183i

03.01.2022 With restrictions looking like they are starting to lift, what better way to celebrate than by building an outdoor pergola for our client to entertain under! We chose to use @colorbondsteel Diffused Ice to contrast with the Monument roof but to also allow natural light to penetrate through. We paired it with @duluxaus Surfmist for the flashings and think its come up quite schmick All materials sourced through @roofingoptionscentre

02.01.2022 Our Macleod pergola is done and dusted! How good does that hardwood look against the grey bricks and fence? We are so thankful to be able to start and finish this project during lockdown! Now onto a couple of bathroom reno’s we’re working on https://www.instagram.com/p/CFy-NhjFuyq/

01.01.2022 Before During After A team effort that saw the clients small granny flat transform from a dark room to a light, bright space!
