Bellarine-based Lachlan Ryan has worked as a carpenter for the better part of a decade, and so developed an appreciation for quality natural materials. Since establishing his own business in 2010, Ryan has gained a firm following, and a reputation among locals as “the wood man”. Watch him in the timber yard cradling a beam or gently loading planks into his ute and this love of the material is evident. Whether big or small, each project is treated with great care and respect.

With an architect father, a builder and developer uncle and an education that encouraged creativity at Melbourne Rudolf Steiner School, Ryan had a strong foundation, learning much of his trade via a hands-on “old school” apprenticeship. This early exposure to a varied building portfolio, featuring complex and original architecture, gave Ryan an eye for both detail and design – his works are both aesthetically pleasing and well crafted.

Lachlan Ryan Construction is a family run business with a team of expert trades who provide a full service from new building works through to renovations. Lachlan’s experience from working closely with architects and engineers gives him unique experience for undertaking creative projects. He ensure the job will be done in a timely manner and according to budget.

Lachlan gives clients the opportunity to reuse and recycle building material wherever possible. Being sustainable is economical and satisfying to create a new product that has incorporated these principles.
