The list
The contractors, founders and operators who have sat down with Jake and Daniel so far.
Episode 6
Adam Hall has been building fences, and then a fencing company, for more than 15 years. With Matt Carroll he started AH Fencing in 2017. The first two years lost money. The later years turned a $3,000 ute start into a multi-city commercial contractor.
On Behind the Facade he talks about bankruptcy, brand, people and why the next stretch of Australian construction will reward subcontractors who know their numbers.
Episode 10
Ethan Chittick left school in Year 11, started B&E Built with a mate at 21, and spent the next decade learning that being a good carpenter and running a carpentry company are different jobs.
The useful part of his episode is the leadership warning: the best installer is often the worst automatic promotion.
Episode 11
Damien Quinn spent about 15 years at Multiplex after earlier years in his father's business, Wimbledon Homes. He left because quality tools on site were still paper and hope. Visibuild has since raised $6.6 million from Skip Capital and is used on major Australian projects including data centres.
