What We Actually Do (It’s Much More Than You Think)
Structural and Exterior Maintenance
- Commercial Contract Painting: We’re talking about proper exterior painting services that go well beyond just making things look pretty. We use high-quality, weather-resistant paints specifically chosen for Melbourne’s unpredictable climate. Our team handles all the surface preparation, priming, and multiple coat applications to ensure you get results that last. We’ll work with you to schedule painting during periods that won’t disrupt your operations, and we’ll provide detailed maintenance schedules so you can maximise your investment.

Our experienced team identifies and sorts out issues like cracking, water damage, and weathering before they turn into expensive problems. We work with all sorts of facade materials – brick, concrete, metal cladding, and composite materials.
- Concrete Repairs: Our concrete restoration services include crack repair, spalling treatment, waterproofing, and structural reinforcement. We use specialised techniques like concrete injection, patching, and protective coatings to extend the life of your concrete structures. Importantly, our team assesses what’s actually causing the concrete damage to provide long-term solutions, not just quick fixes.
- Caulking and Sealing: Proper weatherproofing is absolutely essential for energy efficiency and preventing water getting where it shouldn’t.

Plumbing and Drainage Solutions
- Commercial Plumbing: Our licensed commercial plumbers handle everything from tap repairs and toilet maintenance to complex pipe installations and hot water system servicing.

Our services include preventive maintenance programmes to avoid those costly emergency repairs.
- Drain Clearing: We provide rapid response for blocked drains using professional-grade equipment including drain snakes, hydro-jetters, and CCTV inspection cameras. Our team can handle everything from simple blockages to complex drainage issues in underground systems.

- Electronic Leak Detection: Using advanced acoustic and thermal imaging technology, we can locate hidden leaks in walls, under floors, and in underground pipes without destructive excavation. This non-invasive approach saves time, money, and minimises disruption to your facility. Early leak detection prevents water damage, mould growth, and structural issues.

We provide detailed reports with prioritised recommendations, helping you plan maintenance budgets and address issues before they become emergencies. Our inspections can be scheduled regularly or conducted for specific purposes like pre-purchase assessments or insurance requirements.
- Regular Maintenance Inspections: We offer scheduled inspection services tailored to your building’s needs and usage patterns.
