A word from the owner
— Wayne Miller, Owner & CarpenterMy journey in the building trade began in Cambridge, UK, in 1999, where I learned my trade as a carpenter and developed a passion for quality craftsmanship. After working in the UK until 2008 and spending time travelling, a new adventure brought me to Melbourne in 2012, which I’m proud to now call home.
With over 25 years of experience, carpentry remains at the heart of what I do, complemented by a wide range of skills across the building trade. From carpentry, joinery and cabinetry to kitchens, bathrooms, plastering, tiling, decorating and general renovations, I offer a versatile, multi-skilled service.
Whatever the size of the job, I bring experience, creativity and genuine pride in my workmanship to every project.
