Our Team

Raysett Constructions Pty Ltd formed as a progression of Raysett Pty Ltd, which was established some 25 years ago by Ray Dowsett, its’ founder.

Some twelve years ago the company’s abilities were strengthened with the addition of three new directors drawn from the ranks of its’ long serving employees Steven Beshara, Eddie Mueller and Jacob Thomson.

This brought together a wide range of skills with practical hands on experience, professional management and sound financial practices with a combined construction history of over 140 years between the four directors. The company name changed to Raysett Constructions Pty Ltd to reinforce the core of its’ business activities and in June 2012 Ray retired, leaving the company in safe hands for the future.
