Veterans building relationships, one home at a time
ICFT was contacted by the owner, requesting us to replace the deck as the original deck was fitted incorrectly and just didn’t appeal to the owner any more
Turning an outdoor area into a useful space is as simple as putting up a pergola. The materials cost around $1500 and in two days, it was up and we were out, leaving a very usable space for the client. It was a very quick turnaround and the client couldn’t be happier
The bedroom balcony was on their priority list so we stripped it down, replaced what was rotted, strengthen the balcony itself and even sent the baulistrades out for sandblasting and repainting. The end result is a visually stunning balcony, adding value to this lovely home. We will be spending six weeks on this job so stay tuned for our next post.
Most of our jobs a pretty much straight forward but some of our jobs require safety planning prior to the commencement of works. We take safety very seriously and working at heights, safety is paramount.
This client wanted a fence to stand the test of time but didn’t want to go with a flimsy steel fence, so we decided to build the whole frame out of SHS (Square Hollow Section) and RHS (Rectangle Hollow Section) galvanised steel.
A builder approached I John asking if he would be interested in building this for his client. He got the plans studied them and built the material list from the plans. Some minor modifications had to be made to the house trusses to support the weight of the new alfresco roof, but other than that, it was a very straightforward build.
This client’s side fence was way past its used by date, so it was time to build a new fence to match the existing fence. The capitals and posts were sourced through Perrys Pickets and the timber from Mahoneys Timber, both very reputable suppliers. The side fence was undercoated and painted to match the current fence, with a great end result!
This is how a spectacular, useable outdoor space is created. Normally I would put up three or four pictures of a project from start to finish but not this build. As you can see, the clients wanted to transform this outdoor entertainment area into a covered area so that they can use the area to entertain throughout the year.
The house John was working on is an Edwardian style home. The owners wanted a front deck to match the style of the house so after consulting the owners, John started building the deck.
Another impressive completed project! This house is from 1971 and the old air conditioner had been there for over 15 years. The images say it all. John was able to remove the air conditioning unit and match and replace the bricks seamlessly for another great outcome for this valued client.
John managed to construct this great little deck in just 3 days amongst the bad weather and all. It’s not quite finished yet, but it looks amazing. The client has just moved into the unit and is very happy with the new addition.
From an empty void under the stairs to a functional, beautiful custom shelving feature. This was a lengthy job for John as he had to prepare the area, match the existing paint and then create the shelving to fit the space exactly.
Now that’s an impressive side fence and gate! This fence and gate was constructed from 100mm x 100m steel posts and reconstituted timber. The structure is extremely heavy, but the posts were buried 1.2m deep so there is no chance the fence would be affected by the wind. It’s built to last!
C A U T I O N: This post may cause extreme Deck Envy
This impressive raised deck was created by John. You can see the quality workmanship making this deck strong, sturdy and visually appealing. This wrap around deck has added so much to this home in both value and liveable space on this very sloped block.
Hi all, John from ‘I Can Fix That’ with my first post on my new FB work page. So what better way to start off then to talk about this little beauty. This lovely Bali Hut was built to compliment the swimming pool and a tropical theme the owners were looking for.
