Heritage Restoration at Unwin’s Stores, The Rocks Precinct

The existing heritage timber stair balustrades required strengthening in order to bring to an acceptable standard for safety and accessibility.

Valen Project Services were engaged on a Design and Construct basis to provide a detailed upgrade methodology in consultation with the Client Heritage Team to ensure the upgrades were sympathetic to the stair aesthetic and to ensure minimal impact on the heritage fabric.

He is always happy to provide insight and answer questions as well as fit in meetings, working around our schedule, especially during lockdown where it has been a difficult time to complete works. He has great knowledge of the precinct and the heritage nature of works.
