The business parks, hotels and offices at this end of Bellary Road are a real distance from the city. That is the first thing we plan around. We do not make half-day trips out here. We come with the whole job loaded, the permits already raised, and we work a full day.
Permits before the van leaves
Business parks and hotels here almost all work on permits. A work permit, a gate pass to bring material in, a service lift or service corridor slot.
Raising those on the morning does not work, and a team standing at a gate is a day gone. So we ask what is needed at the quote stage. We give you our names, the van number and the material list to submit with.
We also need the allowed working hours in writing, not from memory. Some of these buildings allow noisy work only outside office hours. That changes when we start, not whether we come.
Working in a building that stays open
A hotel or a park does not close for a partition. So we do the work in sections, with the area screened off.
We agree the work area first and keep glass, tools and offcuts inside it. That one rule is what keeps a busy building safe while a panel is standing.
Drilling and fixing are the only really noisy parts, and they are short. Where the building wants them outside guest or office hours, we do that part separately and the quiet work in normal hours.
Repeat units are measured one by one
A lot of the work at this end is the same room over and over. Identical cabins in a park, identical rooms in a hotel.
We make a template from the first one and check every other opening against it. We do not make forty panels off one measurement.
The reason is simple. Rooms built to one drawing still differ by ten or fifteen millimetres once finished, and a panel is made to size. Checking each opening takes minutes. Remaking a panel takes days.
How the job works
- Tell us about the jobSend a few photos, rough sizes and what you need. Use WhatsApp or the form. For a repair, a short video of the door moving helps a lot.
- We call you back in about 2 minutesWe confirm what you need and a time to visit. Where we can, we give you a rough price on the call.
- We come and measureWe measure the opening and check the walls, floor and ceiling around it. Anything made to size is made to these measurements, so they must be right.
- You get a written priceIt lists each item, with GST as its own line. If anything about the job changes, we tell you before we go ahead.
- We fit itYou approve the price and pay the advance. Our own team fits the work, checks that every door and window opens and closes properly, and clears up. Most jobs are done in 3 to 4 days.
