Building solutions

for tricky projects

The jobs that don’t fit neatly into a single contractor. Renovations, upgrades and improvements - coordinated, managed and done properly, by one person who sees the whole picture.

01

OUR STORY

Good thinking, not rushing.

Everyone has a list of projects they'd like to get done. Not everyone has the time, skills or confidence to know where to start.

Tricks Of The Trade Projects exists to help people work through those tricky, half-defined problems - the ones that don’t fit neatly into a single trade or contractor - and turn them into clear, practical solutions.

This is about good thinking, not rushing. Advice you can trust, and work done properly.

Some projects need tools. Some need experience. Most projects need someone who can see the whole picture - figure out what to do, working out how to do it, then either delivering it, coordinating it, or helping you decide the best next step.

02

HOW ITS DIFFERENT

Sits between trades and advice.

Most trades focus on one thing. Most advice stops at recommendations. Tricks Of The Trade Projects sits in between.

  • Trade-qualified electrical background

  • 30 years in building operations, facilities & corporate project management

  • Strong customer service mindset

  • Practical approach from hands on experience

  • Clear communication and sound judgment

  • Innovative thinking approach

03

THE EXPERIENCE

Starts by listening.

Not rushing. Not upselling. Not assuming there's only one right answer.


THE CHALLENGE

Understand what's actually going on, before any engagements.


THE OUTCOME

Clarity on the results you’re after - not a generic fix that ticks a box.


THE OPTIONS

A considered set of options, with trade-offs explained clearly.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

An amazing support to reduce our "to-do list." Multiple projects — electrical, lighting upgrade, storage — executed, coordinated and managed with the right providers. The outcome was perfect.

Sue SURRY HILLS · BUSINESS OWNER

Real tricky projects, resolved.

Modern office space with multiple desks and computers, a staircase leading to a mezzanine with additional work areas, large window with blinds, and designer lighting.

Super helpful identifying the best replacement awning for our back doors — an economical, durable, stylish fit. Super happy with the design thinking, builder installation and outcome.

Ali BONDI · HOME OWNER


Craig provided outstanding project leadership and management throughout the pre-construction phase of our Class 2 residential refurbishment project. He expertly coordinated the consultant team, managed the approval process, prepared comprehensive tender documentation, and led the builder selection and contract negotiations with a calm, structured and professional approach.

His technical knowledge, commercial acumen and attention to detail gave us confidence at every stage of the project, ensuring we were well prepared for construction.

We would recommend Craig without hesitation to anyone seeking experienced project management services for complex refurbishment, renovation or construction projects.

Bruce BONDI · REAL ESTATE OWNER


Narrow path, no garage and 5 boards to securely store. The bespoke solution, excellent communication and problem-solving approach left us with exactly what we needed.

Michelle TAMARAMA · HOME OWNER

A semi detached side path in Tamarama, a slim line space saving surfboard rack placed against a brick wall on the left and a black wooden fence on the right. This is an innovative space saving storage solution for surfboards in tight access pathways.
