2021 Recap
2021 Recap
As we’re getting closer to Christmas and our shut-down period (20/12/2021 – 9/01/2022) we thought we’d take a look back at the year that was.
The start of 2021 saw us move in completely in our brand new office and storage space in Caloundra West. We hit the ground running with a complete unit renovation in Golden Beach and a bathroom renovation in Alexandra Headlands and we kept the momentum going throughout the year.
In fact, we had so many requests for quotes and approvals that we had to hire more staff to keep up with the demand. We hired two more trade assistants, two new carpenters, and an admin assistant and also our Project Manager Mick to help us keep all the extra jobs on track. And we’ve also taken on an apprentice. With all these changes, Kenth and Susanne’s small home-office business with 4 employees has now grown to a team of 11 and has converted from a sole-trader to a Company! A busy year indeed!

And as the jobs have grown, so has our administrative duties! Linn, Sanna, Mick and Kenth have been working hard throughout the year to update and adjust policies and procedures to reflect the busier schedule and to help keep the jobs running as they should. We’ve also had to brush up our skills on internal policies such as human resources and extra health and safety obligations to ensure our workers stay safe on our worksites.
We attended many Master Builders Queensland events to keep up to date with the industry, to expand our networks and to brush up on our skills. We even attended the Master Builders Housing and Construction Awards, which was a lot of fun. We also became members of Awesome Women in Construction (AWIC) which has given us the opportunity to meet up with other awesome women in the building and construction industry on the Sunshine Coast.

We’ve celebrated birthdays of our team members and we’ve worked through all the various COVID restrictions put on us to keep our workers and our clients safe.

But no matter how busy we’ve been, we have absolutely loved working with all our clients and seeing their bathrooms, kitchens or entire units transform from old to new (or Nybladified as our Project Manager calls it) and we’re looking forward to starting some amazing unit renovations early next year.
In the meantime, we are enjoying the slightly slower pace up towards our Christmas shut-down period and for all of our team to take some well-deserved time off with their families and to recharge their batteries, ready to hit the ground running again on 10 January 2022.
