Welcome to our recent projects page. Our aim is to keep you up to date with new and interesting projects undertaken by Ringtail Carpentry. Joint projects will also be included on the page with all due credit given to the relevant parties involved.
West End Project
Sub - contracting to Building Company "Built by Thomas" this dual purpose business / residential property was to have it's none to subtle finishing touch, a massive privacy / sun screen applied to the west facing facade. Built by Thomas had already done the extensive renovations and additions and the building is now a fully functioning office for graphic designers with residential accomodation at the rear. The architect had created a fantastic design and Ringtail Carpentry was very keen to be on board for this project. |
![]() Firstly, a concrete plinth had to be poured to provide a solid mounting platform for the substantial proposed steel framing.
|
![]() The finishing touch was to fit and clad the gate that allows access to the meter box.
|
![]() 8 months later and this fantastic vertical garden is starting to take off. I can't wait to see it in another 12 months.
|
Overall, the West End project was extremely hard work but incredibly rewarding. The final results speak for themselves and I have no doubt that this building will become a local landmark in the near future. I am unashamedly proud of this creation and wish to thank Built by Thomas for the opportunity to help bring it to life.

Graceville Project
This plunge pool with surrounding deck was a massive achievement that nearly didn't happen. The plunge pool is a pre cast concrete with a fully tiled finish. It arrived on site on the back of a truck where a 20 T crane awaited. Thanks to a vacant block and accommodating neighbours, the crane was just able to position the pool in its final resting place. Another 300 mm and the crane wouldn't be able to cope with the 6 T payload. But, with its boom fully extended it made it, just. A very nervous 45 minutes.

![]() A 20 T Franna crane lifting the 6T pool. Even though it's a 20 T crane, it can only lift 20 T with the boom fully closed. With the boom fully open at around 6 mt, we were right on the limit of the machinery. |
![]() The path to the job site. Very nervous moments with 6T of concrete, 3.5 mt wide moving alongside the neighbour's house. And yes, it has to go over the fence.
|
![]() 90 x 19 Pacific Jarrah decking. Screw fixed using razr decking screws.
|
![]() Stainless steel cable balustrade with wide Kwila handrails. Fitting up the pool gate and glass panels. Note the temporary plywood barriers. A necessity until the glass arrives.
|
![]() Looking back towards the house the seemless connection is evident
|
![]() We installed a 3.5 mt 360 degree rotating umbrella for those stinking hot summer days. With the ability to follow the sun, the pool can always be in shade.
|
At 3.5 mt wide and 1.4 mt deep, the concrete plunge pools from All Cast Pre Cast are the perfect solution for those with either limited space or the desire for a simple and attractive pool with no expensive excavation. There are several options available for internal seating. A big thank you to Jarrod and the team from AllCast Pre Cast for delivering a fantastic product for Ringtail Carpentry.

Yeronga Project
The clients at Yeronga had just installed a hydrotherapy spa. Being situated on the lower level of the terraced yard, access to the spa was difficult and dangerous. A nice little deck and walkway would bring the spa access up to the same level as the main house and create a tranquil little corner to easy away the aches and pains.
