Welcome (back) to Botany!

This time, Michael is taking us on a site tour and sharing the latest update on how the works are progressing.

Take a look at what’s happening on site as the project continues to move toward practical completion soon.

Another successful project completed in the heart of Sydney!⁠
⁠
These painting works were delivered at a heritage-listed property where preserving the building’s character was essential. The project required careful planning and coordination to accommodate strict access requirements, restricted working areas and the complexities of operating within a busy city environment.⁠
⁠
Through close collaboration between the project team, contractor and stakeholders, the works were completed safely and with minimal disruption, delivering a high-quality finish that protects and enhances this important heritage asset.⁠

Protecting a piece of Darlinghurst history⁠
⁠
Our team was engaged as Project Manager for civil works at one of Darlinghurst’s landmark Federation apartment buildings, set within a heritage conservation area, this complex was built in 1915 and still has its original architectural features still intact.
⁠
Following heavy rain, a steep embankment and retaining wall alongside the property collapsed, resulting in a significant landslip against the building (see last slide!)⁠
⁠
Valen coordinated a peer review of the engineering designs for the new retaining wall, identifying opportunities to further improve drainage and strengthen the proposed solution. We then managed the tender process, including documentation, competitive tendering and detailed assessment of submissions, supporting the owners in confidently selecting the right contractor.⁠
⁠
During construction, Valen acted as Superintendent on behalf of the owners, overseeing delivery of the civil works as scoped, on time and within budget.⁠
⁠
A complex project with heritage considerations, challenging site conditions and a critical focus on protecting the building for the future.

About last week: a great milestone reached at Phillip Gardens, Redfern!

After months of construction on site, we’re really pleased to see the scaffolding come down on this project and enable residents to have access to their balconies again.

At the end of last week, we had 40+ people coordinating the safe removal of approximately 2,000sqm of scaffolding following Ausgrid's power isolation in the morning; a carefully planned operation and a big milestone in the delivery of this project.

It’s always rewarding to watch a façade be revealed after months of work behind the scaffolds and hoarding. Thank you to Dapcor and everyone involved in this project.

On a recent 8-lot residential building, our team successfully reduced the projected cost of fire safety upgrades from $215,000 to $80,000.⁠
⁠
Fire safety compliance isn't always about replacing everything. With the right strategy, detailed investigations and early engagement with key stakeholders, it's often possible to achieve the required outcome while significantly reducing project costs.⁠
⁠
The scope included:⁠
• Installation of smoke detectors to each sole occupancy unit⁠
• Fire alarms to the common stairway⁠
• Interconnected heat detectors within the roof space⁠
• Emergency lighting and exit signage⁠
• Fire door upgrades⁠
• Common area exit door upgrades⁠
• Fire extinguishers⁠
• Passive fire protection works maintained to the original installation standard⁠
⁠
We undertook a detailed review of the building's existing fire safety measures and worked collaboratively with council to establish a practical compliance pathway. This enabled compliant building elements to be retained where appropriate, while still achieving the required fire safety outcomes.⁠
⁠
The result was a fully compliant building, improved life safety for residents and a saving of more than $135,000 for the Owners Corporation.⁠
⁠
At Valen, we believe good project management is about more than delivering works. It's about challenging assumptions, identifying opportunities and applying value engineering to achieve the best possible outcome for our clients, time and time again.

When an incorrect Fire Safety Schedule puts compliance at risk, acting quickly can make all the difference.

Valen recently provided AFSS consulting services for a newly completed strata apartment building in Rose Bay after an error on the Fire Safety Schedule prevented the lodgement of the building's first Annual Fire Safety Statement (AFSS).

Following our appointment, the team attended site the next day, confirmed that a listed mechanical measure was incorrectly included, coordinated an unrestricted surveyor to verify the findings, and worked with Council to have the Fire Safety Schedule amended.

From engagement to resolution, the matter was resolved in just six business days, including obtaining independent third-party advice.

Our technical expertise and trusted network help deliver practical compliance solutions and achieve positive outcomes as efficiently as possible. Feel free to reach out to our team for advice at [email protected].

Friday afternoon done right!

Last Friday, the Valen team enjoyed an afternoon of Reformer Pilates at Inlife Petersham (big thanks to Ange for guiding us through the session!) followed by lunch at The Lucky Prawn in Marrickville.

We're big believers that strong teams and culture are built both in and outside the office. Taking the time to do something fun, have a laugh and recharge is an important part of who we are.
