David served in the Australian Defence Force as a recon sniper in Infantry for ten years before transferring to Engineers in 2004 to complete a carpentry apprenticeship. After homes in country NSW and Sydney, he left the ADF in 2012 to start Cardinal Point in Brisbane.
The team are all ADF veterans — disciplined, hard-working, and committed to finishing each job to a high standard.
