This included a two phase external upgrade program to keep the one section open for use during our upgrade works. All internal bathroom upgrade works were completed out of normal working hours to ensure there was no disruption to the sites operating ability.

Our external upgrade included installation of new shade structures, turf and bike track surfaces, sand pit upgrades, garden upgrades, fencing upgrades and painting works.
Our internal upgrade works included bathroom joinery replacement, toilet replacement works, wall vinyl installation and plaster and paint touch ups.

Each site required a unique approach, the main scope of work included investigating the existing roofs, awnings and platforms to determine the extent of the damage and detect any areas where stormwater could effect the roof space and cause structural or superficial damage. Where water damage was identified we repaired or replaced any damaged internal finishes and re-painted affected ceilings and walls. Most sites required the removal and replacement of all water damaged carpets and re-instatement with new.

As a preventative measure we installed new sub-floor ventilation fans to control the moisture in the floors.
Some of the schools requried additional works such as new asphalt with line marking and installation of new colorbond fencing.

Live Environment:
It is a priority of our team to ensure the school staff and students were not disrupted while these repairs were underway. As the majority of the works were completed during office hours, we work diligently to make sure no noise or dust generating works were completed during the schools operational hours.

Challenges:
Identifing the extent of the water damage and and establishing a feasible and sustainable method of rectification. It was also crucial for our team to establish what stormwater drainage issues they were experiencing. Prime Build and Hydraulic Consultants were dependant on the information provided by staff at each school to build the best solution for them.
