Technical Building and Property Repairs, Maintenance, and Modifications First thing: It's pronounced 32 20 Maintenance, as in say it like thirty two, twenty.

There. easy.
3220 is Geelong's postcode, although I do travel to other postcodes. I help build and maintain the Geelong and area buildings and homes. For over 50K hours I have worn the nail bag as a fully qualified Carpenter, Joiner and Laboratory Craftsman (C.S.I.R.O)

I have also been the construction supervisor on many home build, townhouse development and renovation sites for most of that time

. I have found helping people like you who needs the lesser time needy tasks around your buildings and homes very enjoyable and rewarding also. So he we are. Please look through the pics and posts in this page to understand the level of work you can have confidently completed by a handyman and so much more.

These third storey Matrix express joints were executed very poorly.

No backing battens or Colorbond trims were installed behind any of the feature joints.

They just loosely put foam filler rod in the gaps, then caulked over it.

Completely failed within a few years. All four gaps were wide open and rain was going into the living room.

Without removing the Matrix the cost considerate method was to install aluminium cover strips over the gaps.

Batten cavity system done badly.

Removed it all, repaired rotten sections and re-weatherboarded it.

Roof structure access door called it quits

New door and doorway components were prepared off-site to minimise on-site mess and disruption

Door sill drain catchment trim, head rain cover and side trims all designed to make the new door last a long time and minimise further decay of existing steel and timber.

Estimate 80% of weatherboards out there in Geelong were not installed correctly.

Not great for you building owners. It means that cladding fails early.

This means you're already behind the 8 ball from new.

Rain gets in behind the boards and standard maintenance can't keep up. Boards rot, framing rots and here we are.

Shout out to the great people behind the counters and in the yard at Barwon Timber and Hardware. They got these boards in extremely fast. Always leave there having a good time. It's people like them who make it fun and worth it. That and the incredible clients.
