Tiger Head Shack Renovation
After years of hosting sun-drenched summers and creating cherished memories for generations of families, this well-loved beach shack was long overdue for a thoughtful renovation. The salt-laced air and coastal elements had taken their toll, and it was time to breathe new life into its tired structure.
What began as a straightforward plan to renew the exterior cladding quickly evolved into a more ambitious project. Upon closer inspection, advice from our trusted architect and builders revealed that much of the building's core frame was in poor condition. The years had not been kind to the underlying structure, presenting a critical decision.
To justify the investment, a new vision was formed: preserve the soul of the original building while rebuilding its main frame for longevity. The architect and clients were united in their determination to maintain the classic character and rustic style of the old shack. Key features, like the original flooring that held the footprints of countless family holidays, were carefully preserved. This approach allowed us to honor the past while building a secure and sound future for the home.
The result is a stunning transformation. We've created vibrant, light-filled living areas that seamlessly blend modern comfort with timeless coastal charm. This soundly renovated holiday home not only retains its valued, traditional beachside character but is now poised to provide joy and create new memories for many generations to come.
Testimonial
Our shack renovation developed into a major reconstruction and we are delighted in the outcome.
Jesse was pivotal to the success of the design and build of this project, being hands-on from day one, suggesting improvements and accepting challenges with good humour and his easy going manner. Our good relationship was essential as we were not able to be on site often and Jesse assisted problem solving often using facetime, and progressively forwarding updated photos/videos of the progress or meeting onsite afterhours when we could get there. He was also meticulous with detail involving us in every stage. This was reassuring and we had complete trust in Jesse and his team and subcontractors. We highly recommend Jesse and 2B Building!
The quality of the renovation is superb, we love being there and are family and friends have been nicely surprised to see the complete revitalisation of our family shack which we have owned for 60 years- a well-deserved and timely, quality renovation for the old shack which will now last for the new generations.
