Services
Three kinds of work, and one builder doing all of them.
If your job doesn't fit neatly into one of these, ring anyway. Chris will tell you straight whether it's his sort of work.
What it costs to find out: nothing. A site visit and a written price are free. Usually on site within a week, price within ten days. Book a site visit

Questions I get asked Before you ring anyone
Do you take on small jobs?Yes. Maintenance and small works keep Chris close to past clients, and that's often how the bigger jobs start.
Fixed price or cost-plus?Fixed where the scope allows it. Where it genuinely can't be, you'll see the allowance and what sits behind it.
Do you do design and drawings?Chris works with architects and designers you bring, or can point you to ones he's built for before. He doesn't draw the plans himself.
Who's actually on site?Chris, plus the same subcontractors he has used for years. No new faces learning on your house.
How far do you travel?Northern Beaches and Upper North Shore — if you're just outside the area, ring and ask.
