A small team with big ideas
Our Team
Established in 2016 by three friends, Woodsman Projects was created by Nathan, Nick & James to offer consumers a high quality build with a no fuss approach. Our core principal was to develop a strong brand of being trustworthy builders that deliver on promises. Our years of industry experience have enabled Woodsman Projects to deliver a high quality build that is unrivaled and sets us apart from the rest.
Woodsman Projects is a dynamic building company with more than 30 years combined experience. The foundations of our practice are built on principles that we hold close to our heart: honesty, transparency along with good ethical building practices. In turn, this has set a high precedence within ourselves to follow the ‘Woodsman Way’.
