Serene Living




The six storey Serene Living Australia project at Tweed Heads has reached the roof with the final slab pour programmed for Thursday 24th October. The Site Management team are paying particular attention to detail on this slab as it will be a 1300m2 roof top oasis complete with turfed and garden areas, pergolas, BBQ’s and expansive paved pathways. The two layer waterproofing system has been designed with longevity and flexibility in mind and the installation process is critical given the interfacing of all the different finishes.

Internal trades are progressing well with wall framing underway and external glazing on level 3, services rough in and wall sheeting on level 2 and plaster setting on level 1. In the Ground floor units, joinery, tiling and painting are well advanced and the display unit has been completed and handed to the Client for use with their marketing campaign.
Externally the façade is a block veneer with a rendered then painted finish. Blocklayers are working their way up the building and are currently nearing the level 3 floor slab. Renderers are starting on site next week and will follow the blocklayers and the painting will be finished in conjunction with the removal of the perimeter scaffold.

The project is programmed for completion in April 2014.
