When a metal gate at a Northern Beaches kindergarten came loose from the wall, safety quickly became a top priority. The gate had ripped away from its brick mounting, with the screws pulling clean out—leaving the gate unstable and difficult to open or close. In an environment where child safety and secure access are essential, this was an urgent repair.
Peter recently repaired a bouncy, unstable timber deck for a Northern Beaches homeowner. Over time, the homeowners noticed that their deck was bouncing considerably when they walked across certain sections. This is a clear sign that something structural wasn’t quite right underneath. Once onsite, Peter found the issue – a rusted steel support post that had corroded to the point it was no longer doing its job.
At this Northern Beaches home, Peter encountered a makeshift timber walkway covering a large stormwater channel that had become unstable and unsafe for the elderly homeowners. It needed urgent replacement.
For these Northern Beaches homeowners, their German Shepherd’s nosy habit of spying on the neightbours, caused some unexpected damage. The dog had been standing up against the horizontal timber privacy screen at the end of their patio. Over time, the pressure from the dog’s paws cracked and broke several slats.
Moving into a new home often comes with surprises and for one Northern Beaches family, the problem was in the laundry. Their washing machine wouldn’t fit under the existing benchtop. Rather than replacing a perfectly good appliance, they called Peter for a smarter solution.
