Beaver

The ultimate hands-on builder who never stops creating.

Dick Strawbridge, the British engineer and TV presenter best known for 'Escape to the Chateau,' is defined by his relentless, hands-on industriousness — restoring a crumbling French château from the ground up with extraordinary craftsmanship and tireless effort. He takes enormous pride in doing things properly, mastering every trade from plumbing to engineering, and simply will not stop until the job is done right. His methodical, detail-obsessed approach to building and creating, combined with deep devotion to his family and their shared project, makes him a textbook beaver.
