FOREWORD
MASTER BUILDERS
Master Builders Foreword Welcome to the 2015/16 edition of BuildIT Victoria This year is a special one for Master Builders Association of Victoria. It marks the 140th year we have been providing membership services for the building and construction industry. 2015 is also the 15th year we have provided our members with BuildIT Victoria, an outstanding publication offering Master Builders members a centralised listing of all the product, service and labour solutions you could need. We’re glad to know you continue to rely on BuildIT as one of the first places to look for building products, materials, suppliers, subcontractors and consultants, and we believe this volume offers as helpful a resource as it always has. The past twelve months have been challenging ones financially for the building and construction sector, facing a disappointing setback with the scrapping of the East West Link project and continuing problems with planning and red tape in the residential sector. The Victorian State Budget did reveal some positive steps toward assembling a pipeline of significant infrastructure works, but we have noticed a conspicuous absence of shovel-readiness, with the majority of the projects announced not scheduled for significant progress for at least a few years. It’s important to note the positives however, including the notable rise in housing activity, with 2014 marking the highest point for residential building since 2010, particularly in new home construction and domestic renovations. Of particular importance to many of our members this year is that we have arrived at the season of renewed negotiations for the industry enterprise bargaining agreement (EBA). It is an exciting time, with opportunities for increased efficiency and productivity. But our sector is also at a crossroads, with much at stake for the economy and the health of our industry at large. Our challenge as a community is to arrive at a fair and fiscally responsible agreement that takes the long-term view into account, ensuring that Victoria’s building and construction industry remains an attractive place to do work, conduct business and invest. As always, Master Builders keeps a watchful eye for all manner of opportunities to help you get the work you’re after and allow your business to thrive. So as the building and construction industry continues to grow and evolve, rest assured that BuildIT and all of the other benefits of your membership will help keep that in motion for you. It’s our privilege to serve you as leaders of our industry.

LOBBYING As Victoria’s peak professional body for the building industry, Master Builders is your voice on local, State and Federal Government matters. One of Master Builders’ most important roles is to lobby governments for reforms that can support you and your business. We’re also here to advise you on the changes to laws, rules and policies made by governments. Our well-connected team works to raise the profile of our industry with key local, state and national politicians and policymakers and secure outcomes that strengthen our sector. This work is done in partnership with members who sit on our sector committees. As a central part of our lobbying efforts, Master Builders has identified eight key priorities for the State Government to underpin the prosperity of our industry: • Invest in infrastructure: As part of this, the government must work to increase expenditure as a percentage of GSP, whilst pursuing actions that ensure the state retains its AAA credit rating. • Continue with the establishment of Infrastructure Victoria and release a major works pipeline: We look forward to the appointment of Board and staff, selected appropriately and including non-government positions in order to remove party politics from the process, ensure expert decisions and create a long-term and stable approach. • Provide greater transport options for commuters: Recognising the existing works in progress, Master Builders asks for further investments in roads and public transport. • Uphold the rule of law in our industry: The Royal Commission into trade union governance has cast a light on the coercion, intimidation and bullying employed by some in our industry. This unlawful behaviour needs to be stamped out by a government willing to uphold the rule of law and a sound governance system that allows swift and meaningful action. • Address housing affordability: As a matter of urgency, the government should progress the National Taskforce on Housing Affordability, so that some clear priorities can be identified. In any event, actions to address housing supply and residential zoning impediments are clear priorities for the government. • Introduce trades registration: Unlike builders, plumbers and electricians, tradespeople are not required to be registered in Victoria. Registering tradespeople would boost productivity, improve the quality of housing stock and protect consumers. • Get tough on owner-builders and unregistered practitioners: A strong enforcement campaign is needed to weed out unregistered practitioners and tradespeople who do the wrong thing, and to tighten the requirements on owner-builders. • Cut building red tape: Builders are forced to rip up the rule book every time they step across a local council border. There is a plethora of differences across municipal borders including hours allowed on site, asset protection and site lock-up requirements. Creating one set of laws means builders can get it right and get it done. Members can stay in touch with the latest updates by visiting www.mbavnews.com.au and by getting involved with our member-based sector committees. You can call us on (03) 9411 4555 if you have questions or seek more information.

SUSTAINABLE BUILDING TRAINING: Master Builders delivers a number of nationally accredited training programs designed for both domestic and commercial builders. The training programs aim to provide builders and their contractors with the knowledge, information and tools to build sustainability options into their construction in order to better respond to client and tender requirements. MASTER BUILDERS GREEN LIVING – DOMESTIC: Specifically designed for residential or small scale builders, you can learn how to easily meet the energy efficiency regulations and build energy efficient houses that are healthier and more comfortable for your clients. SUSTAINABLE CONSTRUCTION – COMMERCIAL: This training is specifically for commercial builders. Course participants will learn about green buildings, site management and complete their own environmental policy and management plan. MASTER BUILDERS GREEN CARD – ENVIRONMENTAL INDUCTION: This new, essential training module will ensure your staff are aware of their basic, onsite environmental responsibilities and competent in the use of essential environmental tools focusing on spill response and spill kit use. Master Builders believes environmental training should achieve the same level of competency as onsite safety training and the Green Card will offer basic awareness in a similar role to the White Card or Construction Induction Training. No one should enter your building site without the basic knowledge to obey environmental procedures and the skills to competently operate environmental equipment. SUSTAINABLE ‘GREEN’ BUILDING ADVICE: Green buildings are increasingly becoming a part of the construction landscape. Responding to sustainability requirements has now become a common part of the tendering process. Master Builders can provide you with the latest information, training and advice to help you to meet tender, legislative and client requirements. This specialist advice and support for members includes; on-site inspections and advice on environmental management procedures, operations and compliance; help with preparing environmental management plans and responding to tendering questions; assistance with sourcing environmentally preferable materials and services and tailored on-site training for inducting contractors and all your employees.

LOBA AUSTRALIA Since 1922 Loba GmbH has led the way in coatings innovation for all things timber flooring. Established as the innovators in the development of Very Low VOC user and site friendly floor coatings and treatments, Loba are the Experts in the protection, enhancement and maintenance care of all types of Solid timber, Parquetry and Engineered floors. Loba have an enduring and attractive coating application to make sure your timber flooring project is successful and trouble-free. The Loba range of products includes water-based polyurethanes, natural oils and waxes, hardwax, stains, fillers and the latest in onsite UV coating technology – all formulated with an environmental conscience, superior performance and an appearance that brings your flooring project to life. In addition to this, Loba provide a range of specialty products like “active colour” timber treatment, which draws tannins from the timber to provide creative effects, “UV Protect” which minimises the effect of discolouration caused by the direct sunlight and UV light on floors, and “Anti – Slip R10” – which ensures all stairs and critical commercial surfaces meet legal requirements whilst avoiding the “lumpy look” that comes with other non-slip surfaces. All Loba products are simple-to-use and spectacular to behold, satisfying even the most critical flooring contractor and owner. Regardless of your choice whether it be French Oak, Spotted Gum, Parquetry, Engineered, or even Bamboo – if you love timber floors – Loba will enhance, protect and maintain better than any of the alternatives.
If installing a new floor consider WAKOL adhesive systems, the most advanced and reliable adhesives available. This system includes the fastest drying (one hour) and most effective Moisture Barrier Wakol PU280, which will ensure the very best start to your installation. Follow this with Wakol MS260 Flooring Adhesive, and you will minimise the potential for cupping and timber movement – and maximise the success of your project. Wakol MS260 also takes care of BCA Acoustic requirements without special matting etc., and is free from VOC, waste and stress. Used in conjunction with Loba coatings, Wakol offers a “connected systems” guarantee that it will not result in any conflict, as commonly occurs between most adhesives and coatings. There is no choice: “Loba” systems are “Simply Better Floor Finishing Systems”.

FLOORS & FLOORING
BONA HAS THE SOLUTION FOR TIMBER FLOOR FINISHING Based in Malmo of Sweden, Bona is a world leader in the development of non-toxic finishes for timber floors. Bona has been at the forefront of developing waterborne technology for more than 30 years. Since the company's establishment, enough Bona non-toxic finishes have been produced to coat more than 500 million sqm of flooring in 70 countries. Bona takes its environmental responsibilities seriously. Its mission is to bring out the best in timber floors and continuously launch more sustainable products with less environmental impact. All Bona finishes are Green Star compliant with significantly less Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) than the limit of 140gm per litre of VOCs, set by the Green Building Council of Australia. In fact, most Bona finishes contain less than 85gm per litre of VOCs. When designing the surface of a residential or commercial timber floor, there are many factors to consider. Design does not only include the appearance of the floor but also its functionality. Is the floor in a domestic location or a commercial one? Durability, sheen, colour and slip resistance are all important. As the innovators of waterborne finishes Bona offers a solution customised to both your functional and aesthetic needs.
Passion for timber floors
For example, Building Code Australia (BCA) has introduced new ‘Deemed to Satisfy’ provisions for determining the slip-resistance to treads and nosing to stairways, including domestic housing. Internal stair treads are required to have a slip resistance of R10 or P3. To this end, Bona offers two finishes, which meet the new BCA requirements – Traffic Anti Slip and Bona Naturale. Available in Australia for more than 20 years, Bona non-toxic finishes have set the standard, with a market leading position in the professional flooring industry. When choosing Bona products contractors, home owners, builders, architects, designers and other specifiers always receive the highest level of technical support and service through the nationwide distribution network.
For more information contact: Phone: 1300 882 806 Email: info@bona.net.au Website: ww.bona.net.au
The market leader
Proven performance
Bona is recognised as the world leader in the development of non-toxic products for timber floors. Produced in Sweden and Germany, the innovative Bona system includes non-toxic finishes, adhesives and floor care, so you can rely on Bona every step of the way.
Bona has been producing timber floor finishes since 1919 and launched its first range of non-toxic waterborne coatings in 1979. Since then, Bona finishes have been used to coat more than 500 million square metres of timber floors in more than 70 countries. As well as proven reliability and performance, with Bona you can be confident of receiving the very best technical and product advice available. Whichever Bona solution you choose, you will be using environmentally conscious, non-toxic products that negate the need to vacate premises.

LIGHTING
FROM THE LEADING LIGHT IN LED COMES THE LEADING EDGE OF INNOVATION Australia’s premier supplier of quality LED products is proud to present three of the world’s most innovative LED light fittings. With more than 30 years’ experience in the lighting industry and dealing with the world’s most reliable LED brands since 2010, you can rely on TASKLED to know ‘what’s hot’ and ‘what’s not’ in the ever-evolving world of LED. Although their lights do not run ‘hot’, their designs certainly do. TASKLED is driven by reliability and have scoured the world and worked closely with manufacturers to source and develop the latest in LED solutions, offering untold reliability, flexibility when it comes to installation and the utmost functionality for end users. TASKLED think every job deserves lighting with smart features and, with unbeatable wholesale prices, there is nothing stopping you from specifying the best. This means the best quality, easyinstall fittings that do not require early replacement and clever solutions that improve the everyday lifestyle for your end-users. Discover three exclusive new products from TASKLED:
Tri-brite LED down lights TASKLED is launching this exciting new technology exclusively to contractors. Where usually there is a need to hold stock of three light colours – warm white, natural white and cool white, the Tribrite down light features all three in one, so you do not have to keep stock of different colours on hand. What is more, with conventional LED down lights, you might pick up the wrong colour or have a customer change their mind and be left with the hassle of trudging off to swap lights. The Tri-bite option eliminates that risk and hassle. And for the end user it’s an impressive option. Think about your customers in their kitchen. While cooking they need a good and bright light but, once the meal is ready, they want a warmer atmosphere. With Tri-bite they can achieve both with a dimmer function to boot. These products are provided in popular Australian sizes of 70mm and 90mm diameter.
Civic down lights
Futura LED down light Using the very latest in transformer technology, TASKLED's Futura light functions perfectly with only one driver for two LED down lights, requiring just one electrical connection for the two lights. This enables you to install twice the lights in half the time while minimising labour and saving on installation costs. The Futura is available in 10-watt and 13-watt LED down lights, with quick connectors and the Australian cord and plug for AC connection. Alternatively, you can dispense with this and utilise the large AC connectors. If that is not all, Futura is also offered in any colour temperature – warm white, natural white and cool white. *This model is available exclusively to the building and electrical contractor industry. Not to retailers, and not to the public. Take advantage of this exclusive offer from TASKLED today.

The Civic down light is one of only two products in Australia using this leading-edge technology and amazingly, this model has the driver built-in for faster and easier installation, and faster replacement if there are any problems. And, of course it is much cheaper than traditional options because there are fewer materials in its manufacture. Compared with the only known competitor product, the TASKLED Civic model emits light more evenly, has a higher light output (higher lumens) better construction and better heat management – and is cheaper. Notice the IC Abutted & Covered logo/icon, which means the light may be installed under insulation. Smart, huh? TASKLED is not just lighting the way when it comes to innovative LED solutions; they are leading the way.

TASKLED has more than 30 years’ experience in the lighting industry and deals with the world’s most reliable LED brands. Not all LED lights are created equal. Where a TASKLED light has a life of around 50,000 hours, inferior fittings can sometimes last only a few months, costing time and money to replace. Before you change another faulty fitting, perhaps it is time you changed your lighting supplier. With more than 30 years’ qualified experience in the lighting industry and dealing in the world’s most reliable LED brands since 2010, you could say TASKLED are the leading light in LED and are on the leading edge of innovation. Matched with an unbeatable factory direct and wholesale prices, TASKLED has your LED needs sorted. TASKLED products are not the off-the-shelf variety; they are independently tested and respecified, where needed, to meet exacting standards. All TASKLED products are easy install with
large flanges, large AC input connectors, popular Aussie hole cut-out sizes and with local cord and plugs included. Plus they all offer superior value, many with switchable colour temperature for less stocking, greater efficiency with high lumen output per watt and much more. TASKLED use LED chips from Cree, Samsung, Sharp and Bridgelux with a huge range of range of popular everyday products in stock. And if you need something specific, TASKLED will source it from trusted manufacturers.

YOUR WORK VAN WILL NEVER BE THE SAME The new Renault Trafic changes the game, combining French style and Formula 1 punch.
The Renault Trafic has been the Number 1 van in Europe for the last 17 years, so it’s no surprise to see how Renault have upped the ante with it’s re-design. The first thing you notice about the Trafic is the bold look. There’s an obvious link to Renault’s stylish passenger cars, and it’s far from a traditional box-on-wheels. Cleverly, everything’s done for a reason. The angled windscreen improves harmonics for a quieter drive while the design maximises space inside, providing dynamics that help deliver the impressive fuel economy of up to 6.2L per 100kms. Powering the all-new Trafic is another little secret. The guys that helped Red Bull F1 Racing’s Sebastian Vettel win four consecutive Formula 1 titles have tweaked the new twin turbo 140 dCi Energy engine. So it’s quick off the mark, has more torque at lower speeds, a slick gear change, responsive steering and beefy brakes. But the biggest surprise is the storage capacity. Out-back, the load area can take up to 1.2-tonnes and either 5.3m3 or 6m3 of cargo. A clever hatch beneath the passenger seat allows for items up to 4.15m long in the longwheel base and 3.75m in the shortwheel base.
Up-front, there’s 14 storage areas and more than 90L of practical space for day-to-day items – so you’ve got a cleaner, safer cabin with work gear stowed away. What’s more, the cabin has been designed to work as a mobile office, with features like a laptop desk, A4-sized clipboard for work orders as well as mobile phone cradles and more. Best of all, the Trafic is priced from $32,990 drive away and comes with an extensive warranty, roadside assist and capped price services. Combined with practicality, value, performance, space, style and more, the all-new Trafic has everything you need. Guaranteed.

WINDOWS & DOORS
DECEUNINCK AUSTRALIA The name Deceuninck has been synonymous with quality window systems for more than five decades. Originating from Belgium, Deceuninck now boast more than 3000 employees and operate manufacturing and distribution plants worldwide including Germany, Turkey, North America and beyond. Recognising the changing landscape of extreme UV exposure and increasingly stringent performance requirements, Deceuninck spread their presence from Europe to the more severe climatic regions well over 20 years ago. Being global leaders in extrusion technologies and window design, its no surprise that Deceuninck is now touted as the most tried and tested window for our harsh Australian conditions. Operating a substantial distribution centre in Melbourne, Deceuninck Australia supports a true consortium of professional local fabricators who service all states of Australia. Each fabrication partner is equipped with a comprehensive showroom and meeting areas to facilitate project discussions with builders, architects’ and end users. Product suitability for the Australian market is the key to Deceuninck Australia’s success. The range of doors and windows is comprehensive, including tilt’n’turn, awning, casement, sliding, triple stacking doors, entry doors, lift’n’slide doors and bi-folding
doors. Several colour options is an important factor as is the ability to accept many glazing options from single through to double and even triple. The real advantage however is its impressive thermal performance. The highly efficient, five chamber frame system performs to a staggering U-Value of 1.8 which drastically helps any building envelope reach its star rating. Deceuninck Australia continues to work closely with the Australian Window Association and the Vinyl Council of Australia, to ensure that Australian consumers consistently receive a high level of quality from the uPVC window industry. One of the most significant results of this collaboration is the creation of an Industry Code of Practice for the manufacture of uPVC windows in Australia. Also designed to properly inform the Australian consumer is the uPVC Window Alliance website. www.upvcwindows.org.au.

BUILDERS: Struggling to put house plans in front of customers? For about the price of ONE house plan, instantly get 72 ready to sell and build. How does a project home builder, especially when first starting out, or wanting to expand, get their hands on lots of quality house plans immediately? It’s an expensive exercise that the big building companies seem to have wrapped up completely, being able to show prospective customers a large variety of home plans in their first sitting. They get signed up to contracts before you even get a look in, even though you may have spent all night or all weekend working on presenting your own floor plan idea. So much for a level playing field! For a locally-based builder, its hard to compete. Not any more! This complete house plan package is potentially a ‘game changer’ for you. For about the price of having just one single house plan drawn up by a qualified draftsman, this package gives you a fully professional house plans portfolio in a formidable sales arsenal that includes: • 72 full colour A4-sized SALE brochures of FLOOR PLANS with ar artist tist impressions. • 72 high, mid, and low resolution brochure images - on USB - for or ongoing marketing. • 72 PDFs of fully dimensioned floor plans - on USB - ready to quote uote on. All this for just $1980. Includes GST, postage & packaging.
EXTRA BONUS
Act now! Orders received by 31 August 2015 will also receive all the original CAD files PLUS 14 alternate facades ~ at no extra cost

EXPERTS IN HOME THEATRE AND A WHOLE LOT MORE Today's world is one of constantly evolving technologies with people demanding the latest advances in every aspect of their life – not just to increase work productivity or improve health and communications – but also to live a better lifestyle. The typical Australian home has more technology than we ever dreamt of in the last century and the curve is not flattening out. In the audio-visual (AV) world high definition (Hi Def) is the latest key word at the moment, leading to exciting developments such as 4K resolution video, Dolby Atmos Surround systems and Hi Def 24-bit music formats. Furthermore, today's customer wants all the latest technologies with the push of a button, or swipe of a touchscreen. A conversation with any builder will show they want to offer customers these latest technologies, but are often reluctant to be bogged down in the potential pitfalls of offering a technology that is not their field of expertise. Successful builders have either had to become experts in multiple and esoteric fields for their customers or develop relationships with other experts to provide the ultimate building solution. That is where showrooms such as Big Picture People Cheltenham and Big Picture People Knoxfield come in handy. Here you will find showrooms that display AV technologies in rooms that truly reflect a home environment. There are systems for all budgets, and clients can benefit from the personalised service and expertise of professional staff. "It's been of huge benefit to us," said Tony Scott, director of Scott Brothers Design Construction Co Pty Ltd. "I can bring my clients in and treat them as if it is my own showroom, with my very own custom installation consultants on-hand to solve their particular issues. They are a wonderful complement to the services I offer my clients." Their friendly staff can help your clients design their ideal custom theatre, whether it is a dedicated room or a shared living space. "Just bring in your plans and we will go through them with you. Whether we are dealing directly with the customer or if the builder wants to get involved, we will help them achieve their ideal home and perhaps offer suggestions if it makes things easier," said Dale Rivers, manager at Big Picture People Cheltenham. "Then, once a system is decided on, they can relax. We can handle the entire installation from pre-wire to final fit; we happily work with the builders, so that everyone is on the same page." "This is one less thing that I have to worry about," said Peter Brown of Brownlowe Extensions.

"Our demonstration rooms are set up so that our clients can experience just how good a serious dedicated system can be," said David Galloway, proprietor of Big Picture People Knox. "They can also see that they can choose a discrete system for a living room, games room, or rumpus for the kids without compromising performance. "One minute, you've got a perfectly ordinary living room. Then, with the flick of a switch, movie time turns the room into a high quality cinema room." It is not all about cinema either; if your client wants to listen to music around the house there are many systems available that can offer a simple, flexible and easy to use solution. "We can help your client decide which system suits them and then make it a reality," said David. "Perhaps they want to view Foxtel or other media devices on multiple TVs? No problem. Want to control it all from their phone or tablet? Of course. "Integrate lighting, energy management, security, cameras? Absolutely. We can help make it happen." Three good reasons to visit Big Picture People Cheltenham and Knox: 1. A showroom that introduces, inspires and informs – When the actual equipment being discussed is on display in a home environment it is more convincing and powerful than any words can describe. 2. Make use of your local experts – Mistakes can be expensive if they are caught too late. Use the experts to do what they do best. 3. Anything is possible - The trick is to find the balance between budget, aesthetic and performance. To provide the ultimate home, today's builders either have to become experts in every field, or develop a network of specialists to compliment their work. Big Picture People Cheltenham and Knox are the experts in home theatre. Come visit their showrooms to find out why today.

Futura LED down light Using the very latest in transformer technology, TASKLED's Futura light functions perfectly with only one driver for two LED down lights, requiring just one electrical connection for the two lights. This enables you to install twice the lights in half the time while minimising labour and saving on installation costs.
Tri-brite LED down lights TASKLED is launching this exciting new technology exclusively to contractors. Where usually there is a need to hold stock of three light colours – warm white, natural white and cool white, the Tri-brite down light features all three in one, so you do not have to keep stock of different colours on hand.
EASY One Switch Control. 3 Light Colours & Dimming.
TASKLED has more than 30 years’ experience in the lighting industry and deals with the world’s most reliable LED brands. Not all LED lights are created equal. Where a TASKLED light has a life of around 50,000 hours, inferior fittings can sometimes last only a few months, costing time and money to replace. Before you change another faulty fitting, perhaps it is time you changed your lighting supplier. With more than 30 years’ qualified experience in the lighting industry and dealing in the world’s most reliable LED brands since 2010, you could say TASKLED are the leading light in LED and are on the leading edge of innovation. Matched with an unbeatable factory direct and wholesale prices, TASKLED has your LED needs sorted. TASKLED products are not the off-the-shelf variety; they are independently tested and respecified, where needed, to meet exacting standards. All TASKLED products are easy install with
large flanges, large AC input connectors, popular Aussie hole cut-out sizes and with local cord and plugs included. Plus they all offer superior value, many with switchable colour temperature for less stocking, greater efficiency with high lumen output per watt and much more. TASKLED use LED chips from Cree, Samsung, Sharp and Bridgelux with a huge range of range of popular everyday products in stock. And if you need something specific, TASKLED will source it from trusted manufacturers.
