Founder & Director Kate
The behind the scenes
Admin Qualified BuilderJames Buxton
Bucky comes from a design background, which gives him a different perspective on site.
He’s constantly thinking about how things can be improved, both visually and practically, and never settles for “good enough”. That creative eye becomes especially valuable during finishing stages and detail work where the small decisions make a big difference to the final result.
Ross
Apprentice Ross is one of the fastest-learning and hardest-working apprentices we’ve worked with.
He progressed through his apprenticeship at an impressive rate and is currently competing in Apprentice of the Year, already placing in the Top 10 across the region.
Clients notice his work ethic immediately. He genuinely cares about improving every day and brings great energy to the team.
Site Foreman Ruben
Reuben brings nearly 20 years of high-end building experience to Oceanside Builds and plays a huge role in maintaining the standard we expect on site.
He’s calm under pressure, highly experienced, and someone the whole team leans on. Clients quickly notice the confidence and organisation he brings to a project, and we’re lucky to have someone with his level of knowledge leading from the front.
Charlie
Apprentice Charlie is a local rugby boy with a great attitude and strong work ethic.
The same effort and discipline he brings to the field shows up on site every day. As a second-year apprentice, he’s soaking up knowledge from the experienced builders around him and improving constantly.
He’s eager to learn, asks questions, and genuinely wants to become a great builder.
