John Owen

Founder

Our story.

Sixteen years ago John started Ample.

am·ple /ˈam·pəl/ adjective

“Fully sufficient for a purpose.”

His dad's name had been trusted for 47 years, and that is the standard John grew up with. Over time, Ample built the capacity for every licensed trade, handled by one contact.

1979

AMNO General Contractors

Michael, John's father, started AMNO General Contractors, one of the only trades carrying electrical and plumbing under one name across the Eastern Suburbs. Trusted for 47 years.

2000s

Licensed electrician and plumber

John underwent his apprenticeship as an electrician and plumber. Every other trade a property needs, he now runs through a licensed team.

2010

Built for scale

John started his own business and named it ‘Ample’ with the purpose: to provide the perfect service Dad was known for, but on an abundant scale.

Today

Every trade, one standard

The trusted all-trades service for agents and property managers in the Sydney CBD and Eastern Suburbs.

What multi-trade actually means.

One accountable team

The team that finds the fault is the team that fixes it and stands behind it. No handball between trades, no gap where the problem lives between two contractors. One contact for the whole list.

Every angle, before the first tool is out

A licensed electrician and plumber reads a job from both trades at once.
A plumbing job read through an electrician's eye, an electrician's job through a plumber's, so it is diagnosed right and done once.

Two generations, one lineage

Michael carried both trades across the Eastern Suburbs, and the next generation learned every trade as one craft from the start.

A standard above your own

The job is right before we tell you it is right, so the list is handed over once and stays closed.

Every trade. One standard.

Every trade, one accountable team.

Nine trades.

Maintenance

Maintenance

One contact for every fault a property throws at you. Urgent faults handled fast, water, power and security first, by the team that owns every other trade.

Electrical

Electrical

Power points, lighting, smoke alarms, switchboard and circuit work, fault-finding and fit-off, left tidier than it was found.

Plumbing & Gas

Plumbing & Gas

Blocked drains, leaks, taps and mixers, toilets, hot water and gasfitting where licensed. The fix holds, and the area is handed back dry.

Climate & Air

Climate & Air

Split-system supply and install, servicing and fault diagnosis. The climate work and the circuit set by the same team, so nothing is left to become water damage below.

Building & Interiors

Building & Interiors

Make-good and interiors: cabinetry fit-off, wall and ceiling repairs, sealing and patching, and the hundred small jobs between trades. Interiors and refresh, never new builds.

Carpentry

Carpentry

Doors, skirting and architraves, timber repairs, joinery and second-fix carpentry. Measured, fitted and finished so it reads original.

Tiling & Waterproofing

Tiling & Waterproofing

Floor and wall tiling over a waterproof membrane, owned by one hand, so the finish holds and the shower never comes back.

Painting

Painting

Interior repaint, prep and topcoats, painted after the dust-making trades so a reworked unit reads new on the first walkthrough.

Flooring

Flooring

Carpet, timber, hardwood and hybrid, laid last so the fresh surface is handed over untouched.
