Project details
Location: Balwyn
Timing: October - December 2023
Budget: Under $500K
Project overview
We won this project through the Boroondara Council tender process. The project brief consisted of renovating a section of the Balwyn Leisure Centre to upgrade it to include a new kindergarten room and bathroom. Space was converted from an old basketball court.
Our process
Initial works were demolition of existing walls, installation of new footings for structural timber beams and posts, installation of new timber framework for new walls and vaulted/cathedral ceiling. The cathedral ceiling with skylights, was installed to optimise natural lighting for the children. New plaster walls, new pinboards, painting, air conditioning.
New vinyl floor coverings were laid, and new lighting throughout, which lifted the space considerably.
The bathroom had to be kindergarten compliant, so we installed a new basin and toilet along with increasing the heights of door hardware to 1500FFL. We also installed a new window within an existing pre-cast concrete panel which required engineers direction, along with needle and propping until the window was installed.
Nature's Symphony
Outcome
A small project, which we delivered ahead of time and in budget. The staff at the Boroondara council were delightful to work with and found our integrated project management system Procore very efficient to work with.
