We’re sporting a new look and feel this year, and we hope you find the changes useful. This is the 17th 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 pleased 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. Apart from some of the obvious cosmetic changes, we have also provided coloured tabs to help you find the sections and information you need more quickly. The economic outlook, both here and abroad, presents challenges for our industry. But those challenges present opportunities as well, particularly in Victoria. It’s important to note that the prospects for engineering construction works in Victoria are relatively good. Having prospered outside of the mining boom, our state steered clear of the crash that continues to depress activity in other resource-rich states. While Master Builders continues to advocate for significant increases in infrastructure construction investment, statistics show

consistently that the population of Victoria is growing faster than any other Australian state. This means an even higher demand for housing, and an increased urgency for major transport works and other infrastructure projects to support growing communities. We will continue to advocate strongly for these critical policy and funding commitments to secure the vitality of our state. If you’re a builder, subcontractor or building industry specialist, this relaunched format for BuildIT can help you locate the right person, service provider and information. 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.

We are the first port of call for all your industrial relations and employment related matters.

LOBBYING As Victoria’s peak professional body for the building industry, Master Builders is your voice on local, state and federal government matters.

Whether dealing with unions or government, our team of industry specialists helps protect your business by providing practical, timely and accurate representation and advice. Members in all sectors of the industry can access these services, which include: • Expert advice on legislation, union disputes and employer rights • Information on employee entitlements, pay rates, general protections and unfair dismissals • Guidance on best practice policies and procedures • Assistance in dealing with unions and government, and representation on relevant industry bodies

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: • Establish a clear strategy for planning: Excessive red tape in the planning system is delaying the delivery of building and construction work, and costing the economy. Therefore, the government should address local council planning delays and third-party appeals must be reduced as a matter of priority • Address housing affordability: The cost of housing continues to grow. Master Builders’ figures show there has been a 21 per cent decline in housing affordability across Victoria in the past decade, and in the last 12 months the price of dwellings has increased by 11 per cent. Victoria needs a clear strategy for achieving housing affordability. • Introduce mandatory 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. Master Builders calls on the government to introduce mandatory registration of trades as a matter of priority. • Reform Victorian Domestic Building Insurance: Master Builders recommends that the government moves towards the

proposed Master Builders’ model for the Victorian DBI scheme, which is a low risk option and retains DBI Advisers (formally known as ‘Brokers’) as an essential element of the scheme. Invest in infrastructure: Master Builders recommends that the state government establish a strong pipeline of commercial and engineering investment as a matter of priority and consider innovative funding arrangements for increased investment in commercial and infrastructure opportunities. Create a sustainable industrial relations environment: As the Victorian building and construction industry prepares for the Enterprise Bargaining Agreement discussion, Master Builders believes these unrealistic costs and their implications need to be properly understood. Invest in industry training and skills development: We need to examine building and construction workforce training, skills and capacity. Simultaneous with a steady decline in funding for the sector across Australia, a shortage of available skilled tradespeople is becoming evident. Master Builders asserts that the importance of Industry Registered Trade Organisations needs to be recognised for a strong future building and construction industry Invest in construction technology: So that the Victorian building and construction industry can keep up with the demand for housing and infrastructure, we need to invest in new ways of delivering constant high quality outcomes.

SUSTAINABLE BUILDING Sustainable building practices are essential for future developments.

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.

The new AF960

AIR CONDITIONING, HEATING & VENTILATION

HEATING/FIRE PLACES

Introducing Esceaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new AF960 gas fire With a large glass area and a minimalist fascia, the AF960 offers considerably more viewable flame than similar sized products. This gas fireplace builds on the success of its smaller counterpart, the AF700, but offers more heat, higher efficiency and even more flame. The minimal framing which comes in two widths, suits classic or contemporary home design and is available in Titanium Silver; Volcanic Black; or Stainless Steel. With a high heat-output of 7kW and 4 ENERGY STAR rating, the AF960 easily and efficiently heats a medium-sized room while offering a large display of mesmerising flames. Direct Vent Flue technology increases energy efficiency, by bringing in air from the outside to provide the oxygen to the fire (instead of drawing it from inside the room), drafts stay eliminated. Zero clearance keeps installation simple, by not requiring special fire retardant materials.

For extra efficiency and convenience, Esceaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Smart Heat technology monitors the room temperature and adjusts the fireplace automatically. Smart Heat also allows you to set the temperature and control the fireplace with your smartphone, giving you the option to turn on your fireplace while you are still on your way home. Escea designs and manufactures these award-winning, innovative fires in Dunedin, New Zealand and together with their distributor Glen Dimplex Australia offer a free Architectural Advisory service providing information and support.

The Weber Family Q Built in, the outdoor kitchen centrepiece. The Weber Q is Australia’s favourite barbecue. People love them for their versatility and durability but above all, for the flavours of a Weber Q meal. The Weber Family Q Built In is no exception – it’s the latest evolution of the Weber Q range. It has the same amazing cooking system, features, and appearance as the Weber Q Range but has been turned into an outdoor kitchen masterpiece. With stunning looks and a clever design, it will become the focal point of the outdoor kitchen, and will create outdoor meals with that sensational Weber flavour for many years to come. The Weber Family Q Built In is designed to fit into a standard 600mm (or larger) outdoor kitchen bench, which makes tailoring a design for installation simple. Constructed of 304 grade stainless steel and cast aluminium, the Family Q Built In will last for years outdoors without rusting. Installation and maintenance is easy due to Weber’s clever design, or if you prefer, trained Weber Technicians offer a delivery, assembly and installation service in capital cities around the country. Why do people love the Weber Family Q Built in so much? It’s simple – unbelievable flavour and versatility, all with the convenience of gas. The Weber Q cooking system can take simple Australian barbecue favourites and transform them into juicy, mouthwatering masterpieces. It’s not just the amazing barbecues though. By using Weber Q accessories, you can transform your Weber Q into a brilliant convection oven or rotisserie cooker. Your Weber Q will cook roasts with that famous Weber flavour; chicken, beef, lamb, even perfect pork crackling. The Family Q Built In will also bake perfect pizzas, cakes and muffins, just like in the oven. In fact, the Family Q is so versatile it’s like having all your kitchen cooking appliances rolled into one, helping to keep the kitchen clean, tidy and free of heat and smells. Imagine never having to clean the oven again! How does it work? Weber flavour is legendary around the world and Australians have been enjoying the flavour of Weber food since the 1970’s, but not many people know how that flavour is created. It comes from the barbecue smoke that’s circulated around the meat while it is being cooked. This is a

unique Weber trait and it’s what has made Weber flavour famous all over the world. That’s why the Weber Family Q (even when searing a steak or grilling a sausage) is operated with the lid down. The barbecue smoke is circulated around the food inside, imparting that fabulous flavour to your favourite meals. So the famous Weber barbecue flavour is created by both searing the meat on the hot cast iron cooking grill and the natural convection that circulates barbecue smoke all around the meat. It’s this flavour that is the hallmark of the Weber Q cooking system. The Weber Family Q Built In – total peace of mind included At Weber, quality and performance is at the very heart of our culture. We know that performance, appearance and durability in the backyard are all that counts, and that’s why Weber use only the highest grade materials, chosen to weather the elements and to stand the test of time. The Weber Q Built In is constructed from high quality, 304 grade stainless steel and no rust cast aluminium, to stand up to even the harshest outdoor environments. Inside, there’s a rust resistance enamel coated cast iron cooking grill and a stainless steel burner system that means the Family Q Built In will perform like brand new for years. In fact, we guarantee it; the Weber Family Q Built In comes with a 5 year warranty backed by one of Australia’s most trusted customer service and technical support team. Talk to anyone who has had reason to deal with Weber customer service and they’ll tell you the same thing – the experience is second to none. Add to that a team of trained technicians and specialists around the country who are ready to support Weber customers on site with anything from technical issues to cooking enquiries, and you have total peace of mind. The Weber Family Q Built In is exclusively available through Weber Specialist Dealers. To find your nearest Weber Specialist Dealer, and for further information on this stunning backyard centrepiece, please visit www.weberbbq.com.au.

What you really need to know about Polystyrene EIFS Lightweight Cladding Systems...

At Dulux® AcraTex® we’ve been designing specialist finishing systems for over three decades protecting some of Australia‘s landmark architecture and infrastructure projects. External Insulating and Finishing Systems (EIFS), long established in Europe and America are now being recognised in Australia for their benefits. What Experience tells us... • Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) requires specialist “Base Coats” to provide long term adhesion and durability. Beware of suppliers/ installers using Cement Renders. or even their labelled “Acrylic Renders”. Expanded foam requires a high polymer base coat for adhesion - much higher than most “Acrylic Renders” • Cavity Drainage is critical in ensuring stability of the facade. This is Best Practice Design for traditional construction and is equally applicable in any Lightweight Cladding System. • Integration of Design, Components and Installation is required to ensure “as built” meets design specification. Lightweight Cladding Systems are able to be installed by a broader installer base (vs traditional masonry). In the BCA their use is classified as an Alternate Solution requiring validation. CodeMark™ certification is an acceptable approach, however it is important that Certification covers the full aspects of the relevant BCA requirements and that Installation is controlled to ensure full compliance.

• Rigid, cement based renders and paint systems are unsuitable to maintain a weather-proofing envelope. Lightweight Cladding Systems (EIFS or FC) require Flexible Acrylic Texture and Elastomeric Topcoats to accommodate normal expansion and contraction. Over recent years the use of Lightweight Cladding Systems, as Alternate Solutions in the BCA, has grown but proper system design and installation has not always followed. The BCA requires appropriate design and installation controls to qualify any Alternate Solution and ultimate success requires a total systems approach integrating Design, Componentry & Installation. The Exsulite® Thermal Facade system protects Builders from the risks of mixed componentry and uncontrolled installation. Exsulite by Dulux AcraTex offers a Single Supply Source - and critically, Installation of the CodeMark Certified System by registered and Trained Exsulite Installers.

Concrete retaining wall sleepers Real-Crete has been manufacturing retaining wall products in Victoria for over 15 years, initially being produced in Ballarat and now in Campbellfield, Melbourne. Other locations include Brisbane and a Sydney factory is due to follow in the near future. Retaining wall products used today must outlast those that were utilised in the past and need to be long lasting, rot proof, twist proof and termite proof. Using concrete sleepers means you will only ever need to build the wall once. Their consistent engineering easily meets council and building regulations, providing the builder with a wall he can trust. Real-Crete sleepers are manufactured with 40mpa concrete used as standard in the majority of their products. This enables Real-Crete to exceed Australian standards in many areas of the industry. If a Crib wall is required Real-Crete can produce all the necessary components.

Often the retaining wall serves to frame the house or subdivision in a way that is aesthetically pleasing, while providing necessary engineering requirements. Real-Crete aims to provide quality sleepers in a contemporary smooth faced design, suitable for modern, minimalist and industrial look applications and a timber look that is one of the most realistic, clean and clear patterns of its type on the market. A great deal of thought and care has gone into the colour selection, which will both impress and please clients. A retaining wall with RealCrete sleepers enhances the appearance of its surroundings. Next time you think of a retaining wall product look for years of experience, strength and durability with the highest of standards. Wanting a look that will compliment any location? Think, Real-Crete.

SURVEYING TOOLS

Measuring in three dimensions with a DISTO distance meter? Wow! Pioneers of laser distance meter technology Leica Geosystems have produced their best handheld unit yet. It is a revolution, something that so far has not existed. The S910 is in many ways like a High-end surveying instrument. From any one setup it can provide you with 3 dimensional measurements! This is achieved by the inclusion of digital encoders that allow the gathering of point to point measurements. Combined with considerable electronic smarts, this provides the ability to position any measureable point that you can see and compare it to any other measureable point. Measure two, ten or 30 points, they will all be allocated a 3 dimensional position in space.

This could be used for bill boards, roofing, railings, internal space, stair cases, shade cloth or hundreds of other jobs where points and angles need to be determined quickly and safely. No more ladders and tape measures! To achieve these results, the smart base and a camera tripod are both available â&#x20AC;&#x201C; aside from use with these accessories the S910 can be used as a normal Disto. The LEICA DISTO S910 stores all the measured points into DXF file, as a floor plan, wall layout or as 3D data. This can be downloaded later in office to a PC via the USB interface OR it can be viewed in the field and transferred via WLAN â&#x20AC;&#x201C; many new things are possible. This revolutionary technology expands the possibilities for measurements with laser distance meters to a much higher levels. No other distance meter offers as much functionality and operational ability.

DRUG & ALCOHOL TESTING

New drug and alcohol testing requirements for building sites In October 2015, then-Minister for Employment Senator Eric Abetz, introduced mandatory drug and alcohol testing in the construction industry. These changes mean businesses subject to the Building Code may be required to institute a drug and alcohol program that covers testing all staff including on-site, subcontractors and office workers. These changes more closely align civil construction projects with other hazardous industries, including rail transport and aviation. While some businesses may resist this change, worker safety is one of the most important aspects of business, and drugs and alcohol can have a serious impact. The 2013 National Drug Strategy Household Survey identified that workers of all ages, genders, occupations and backgrounds use or misuse substances, but the most at risk group are younger, non-university-educated males1 – a significant portion of the construction workforce. Immediate feedback from the Building Code changes has been mixed, but some businesses have welcomed the opportunity to address drugs and alcohol on the work site, seeing a number of key benefits: Safety Workers under the influence may have less physical or mental capacity, and when there are vehicles, plant & machinery, and power tools on site, this can make an extremely hazardous building project. Studies have found over 30% of injured drivers could have impairing substances in their system.2 Productivity Workers using drugs and alcohol during or shortly before work are less productive, experience higher absenteeism and have faster turnover. Alcohol has even been associated with higher levels of work stress.3 Morale Lower levels of job satisfaction have been reported by workers where a permissive culture of drug and alcohol use exists – even in those that don’t partake.4

It’s important when writing your policy you make it as clear-cut as possible. If you get specific about what you expect from your team and communicate those expectations sufficiently, you will have a strong foundation for a drug and alcohol safe worksite. Education From both a practical and enforcement point of view, there is no point having a rigorous policy if your team aren’t properly informed. Introducing your staff to the risks involved with the use of drugs and alcohol highlights why you’re implementing a program, then let them know your specific expectations. Training your supervisors to recognise the warning signs and symptoms of improper drug or alcohol use can help you address issues before the worst can happen. Testing When your policy is ready and your team know what to expect, you can test. When selecting a provider, there are a few things to look for: • Quality & consistency – are they independently and fully accredited (e.g. NATA), and do they meet the Australian Standards? • Experience & expertise – when the safety of your workers is at stake, experience in delivering a reliable service counts • Coverage & suitability – are they truly national, do they have 24-hour availability on-site after an accident, and do they deliver the kind of testing you require? There are many aspects to implementing an effective drug and alcohol policy and procedure, but the main objective is to ensure a safe worksite for all. AIHW (2014) National Drug Strategy Household Survey detailed report: 2013 Drummer, OH, Gerostamoulos, J, Batziris, H, Chu, M, Caplehorn, JRM, Robertson, MD & Swann P (2003) The incidence of drugs in drivers killed in Australian road traffic crashes; Forensic Science International Vol. 134; pp154–162 3 Gates, P, Grove, R, & Copeland, J (2014) Substance use in the Australian workforce: Findings from two national surveys; Australian & New Zealand Journal of Health, Safety and Environment, Vo. 30, Iss. 1; pp 1-15 4 Frone, MR (2009) Does a Permissive Workplace Substance Use Climate Affect Employees Who Do Not Use Alcohol and Drugs at Work? A U.S.National Study; Psychology of Addictive Behaviours; Vol. 23, Iss. 2; pp 386–390 1 2

As a leading national workplace health and safety firm, and the provider of choice for leaders in the construction industry, Medvet provides a number of recommendations about how to run an effective drug and alcohol program to help keep your business safe: Drug & Alcohol Policy The first hurdle is putting in place an effective drug and alcohol policy. Your policy should address all the unique areas of your expectations, including • where, when, and to whom it applies, • the specific, measurable expectations such as breath alcohol levels, • when testing, how many people, how they’re selected, what is tested (oral fluid vs urine), and how often, • and what happens if workers breach the policy, including leading in to your Employee Assistance Program.

PLANT SUPPLIES

Quality advanced trees and shrubs at competitive prices Botanix Plant Supply (‘Botanix’) is a wholesale nursery dedicated to the production of high quality trees and shrubs at competitive prices. Established in 2006, Botanix has grown over the last 10 years to now produce stock at two sites, over 21 acres total.

Botanix offer daily delivery services throughout metropolitan Melbourne and use specialised plant carriers for regional and interstate deliveries. The company understands that for its customers prompt and efficient delivery is paramount, and can adapt to the delivery requirements required.

The company’s customers include commercial and domestic landscapers, developers, builders, councils, contractors and plant brokers who select from the company’s large range of stock.

Contract growing is a service that is becoming increasingly popular, as securing large numbers of stock for commercial projects becomes more difficult. The medium to long term lead times involved in large scale developments mean that Botanix can grow to the customer’s specifications and time frames. This is especially important in staged developments, where the same variety of trees may be used as a signature planting throughout the estate or village, but be required over the course of 12 months or more.

Botanix grow a large, ever-evolving range of stock in a range of sizes, from 30cm pots to 400lt bags. The company constantly reviews the varieties grown, and as well as a producing a core range, responds very quickly to changes in trends and demand in the marketplace as needed.

The Future of Woodheating At Euro Fireplaces, we are invigorating the world of wood heating with our stunning range of stylish and efficient European made wood heaters. As sole importers we have access to the latest in European technology and with our highly trained staff we are able to offer complete woodheating solutions from our locations in Mansfield and Lilydale in Victoria, and soon Bathurst in New South Wales, along with our many Dealers around Australia. Our Heaters use the latest methods to create long lasting, efficient and environmentally friendly heat at a fraction of the wood consumption and without the use of an electric fan to produce and distribute the heat. Through the process of Convection, the heater creates airflow between the inner and outer wall of the fireplace. As the temperature rises inside the combustion chamber the surrounding air is forced to rise through to top vents, pulling cold air into the vacuum through vents in the bottom. This creates constant air movement that continues to disperse heat while the heater is in operation.

Accumulation refractory concrete is incorporated into a number of our models, as well as stone or ceramic materials in the body of the heater that act as thermal mass - heat storage. The result is a fireplace that radiates gentle healthy heat longer and extends the convection process, further improving combustion and reducing wood consumption. With an average efficiency of 70% and emissions as low as 0.4g, Euro Fireplaces extensive range of stylish freestanding, InBuilt, Pallet, Cookers and Hydronic systems are the cleanest and most effective way to heat your home today.

INSURANCE

The Building & Construction Industry’s Own Insurance Broker MBA Insurance Services (‘MBAIS’) is Master Builders own general insurance broking business. We have offices in all States of Australia, employing specialist staff skilled in the key aspects of building and construction insurance – including Construction (or Contract) Works, Third Party Liability and Domestic Building (or Home Warranty) insurance. Unlike other general insurance brokers, all profits made by our business are returned directly back to MBAV, who in turn re-invest these funds into support services such as training, OH&S assistance, contract advice and apprenticeship schemes - initiatives that support your own building and construction industry. By being a leading broker in this sphere, MBAIS uses its industry muscle to leverage great ‘value for money’ insurance arrangements with preferred underwriters, ultimately ensuring that premiums are kept low, yet policy coverage is kept broad. Our customer’s claims are always well managed because our Insurers cherish the importance of their relationship with MBAIS. We currently provide insurance related services to over 8,000 members nationally, and this number continues to grow strongly each year. We look after a broad spectrum of members – large and small, residential or commercial, builder or supplier etc. The bulk of our business is generated through referrals from our customers, who appreciate the quality and price of the products we recommend to them. Unlike several of our competitors, who have retreated from specialising in the building and construction industry in recent years, we are continuing to strengthen our specialist expertise in this often complex insurance market. We have also streamlined a number of our internal and external processes in order to make our operation faster and more efficient, providing our customers with a professional ‘can do’ service.

Approach / Philosophy Our approach focuses on providing high levels of service and ‘value for money’ products. We have a pro-active team of experienced and motivated staff, who are trained to understand the issues relevant to your business, and who can design an insurance program that is appropriate for your needs. Importantly, when you have a claim, our experts will help you lodge the claim, and then work with you to ensure that you gain peace of mind throughout the entire settlement process.

AUDIO VISUAL

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.

“This is one less thing that I have to worry about,” said Peter Brown of Brownlowe Extensions.

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.

“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.

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.

“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.

“It’s been of huge benefit to us,” said Tony Scott, director of Scott Brothers Design Construction Co Pty Ltd.

“Integrate lighting, energy management, security, cameras? Absolutely. We can help make it happen.”

“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.”

Three good reasons to visit Big Picture People Cheltenham and Knox: 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.

Their friendly staff can help your clients design their ideal custom theatre, whether it is a dedicated room or a shared living space.

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.

“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.

Anything is possible - The trick is to find the balance between budget, aesthetic and performance.

“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.”

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.
