Element is a luxury residential apartment complex made up of 2 towers (18 storeys) in the popular beachside address of Burleigh Heads.
Built in 2009, the building’s condition was fair but was in need of some important maintenance repairs such as waterproofing and concrete rectification, as well as painting to restore the resort back to life.
Accessing all 18 storeys of the 2 tower complex called for time and resource management to ensure the project could be completed effectively while ensuring the safety of residents and visitors on-site as well the height access workers.
Areas around the pool, main entrance and garden walkway had water ingress problems that couldn’t be left any longer. A podium refurbishment required a plan that would provide a long term solution, minimise disruption, update the old for new, and allow residents of the building to use these popular spaces soon again.
Keeping the site clean and tidy and the regular removal of debris was important for everyone’s safety. We needed a positive approach that would be systematic and easier for our workers to implement while working on the multi-storey buildings.
