About us

James Nicol comes from a family of builders and building designers, and completed his trade qualifications in 2010. He then went on to work for companies on jobs between the South Coast, Sydney, and Byron Bay, before settling in Northern New South Wales. Over the past ten years, he and his partner have established a residential building company servicing the Byron Bay and Clarence Valley areas.

James and the team create high-quality, functional and beautiful homes and carpentry projects. We also understand that your home is one of the most important things to you, as well as one of your biggest investments. The process of building and renovating is exciting, but can be stressful. As well as being passionate about building, we strongly believe in making it a streamlined, positive experience for everyone involved. Our main objectives are to make sure that you receive clear and accurate information, enjoy the experience, and end up with a home that exceeds your expectations.
