How we work with committees and strata managers
- Investigate: we work with your remedial engineer to confirm the extent of the problem, including opening up where needed.
- Price clearly: a fixed scope and price that the committee can compare and approve.
- Plan around residents: notices, access times to the hour, noise windows and safe paths.
- Deliver and certify: engineer inspections and sign-off at each hold point, with photo records.
- Hand over: completion documentation and warranties for the body corporate’s records.
Frequently asked questions
Can residents stay in the building during the works?
Yes. Almost all of our strata projects are in occupied buildings. We stage the work and agree access times so residents can keep living there.
Do we need an engineer before we call you?
Not necessarily. We regularly work alongside remedial engineers and can recommend the right next step if you don’t have one yet.
What is concrete cancer?
It is corrosion of the steel reinforcement inside concrete, which expands and cracks the concrete around it. It is common in coastal and older buildings and gets worse if left untreated.
Which areas do you cover?
Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast, Cairns and Far North Queensland.
