MEETING STANDARDS WITHOUT COMPRoMISING ON STYLE: A CASE STUDY - AEROSTONE MOULDS
Due to the proximity of the decorative (and practical) hoods to the boundary line, these lightweight concrete mouldings comply where combustible materials are not permitted. Refer to NCC Vol 2 Part 3.7.1 and 3.7.2 for individual circumstances on Class 1 and 2 buildings for external walls.
Painted with Dulux Acrasand, these features give a warm, natural stone finish that enhance the look of any brick or rendered home. Empower Construction exclusively supplies and installs Aerostone on the east coast of Australia and our teams have been trained by the Perth based manufacturer to instal their products made from CSR Hebel blocks. The easy to manipulate 600mm lengths are either cemented to the wall with a proprietary adhesive or they are mounted on steel backing rods (as these hoods have been). The product can be shaved down or built up as required. While the bandings and hood styles in this project are elegantly simple there is a full decorative range so individual builders can create their own moulding signature on their unique range of homes.

Fast and easy to install with simple system components, these Party Walls meet national fire rating requirements and eliminate the need for fire-rated plasterboard.

5-STAR CUSTOMER SERVICEEmpower regularly audits live jobs to gauge client supervisor satisfaction and we are striving for a weekly 5/5 statistic. Michelle Sampo is invaluable in the office as our Customer Service/ Contracts Administration Manager. Michelle is ably supported in the office by Cassie and Liam who process quotes and received POs to ensure that your expectations are seamlessly conveyed to our Area Supervisors and leading hands. Cassandra Mobbs started at Empower earlier this year. Cassie has previously held management roles in sales and in the design studio at Kurmond Homes and Wisdom Homes and is enjoying her new flexible working hours around her busy family life.
SPEEDY INTER-TENANCY WALLSNever has it been so quick and easy to install inter-tenancy walls in the multi-res and duplex space. Empower Construction's use of the CSR zero boundary wall panel and hoist system is working to save time and money for builders by allowing the build to continue uninterrupted by installing the entire frame first, then seamlessly installing the dividing wall. This mitigates the need for a stop start arrangement, any weather protection of the dividing wall product, or any use of the heavy duty scaffold.
Contact Brendan, Todd, Michelle, Liam or Cassie on sales@empowerconstruction.com.au or call our office on 1300 268 041. We'd love to hear about your business and discuss your needs.
