About CIB
Carpenter first.
Builder second.
CIB is owner-run by Chris Boxtel — a carpenter by trade, based between Echuca and Moama, building higher-end custom renovations and new builds across the region for homeowners who value quality over the cheapest price.
Meet Chris
Chris Boxtel
Owner · Registered Builder · Carpenter by trade
Chris founded CIB Constructions after more than two decades on the tools. Born and based between Echuca and Moama, he's raised his family in the region and built his reputation the same way he builds homes — one honest job at a time. He personally runs every project from first site visit to final handover, so the standard on site is the standard he sets himself.
Our Story
Built on the trade.
CIB Constructions grew out of years on tools. Chris trained and worked as a carpenter across the region before starting the business — which means every project runs through someone who has personally hung the door, framed the room, and cut the mitre. Nothing gets subcontracted out of understanding.
