The team at Trasan are lucky enough to be able to provide refurbishment services to a number of special and important properties all over the Pilbara. Earlier this month our team was able to complete a refurbishment of the verandah at Dalgety House Roebourne which is located within the City of Karratha. The property is a Heritage listed site, which meant that it required a selection of materials that matched the existing materials that are used to uphold the integrity and history of the property.

Dalgety House is a landmark defining the Southern end of Roe Street which is the main street  in Roebourne. The property signifies the expansion of Roebourne in the late nineteenth century and is still valued by the community today as it is now utilised as a community arts centre.

 

What Needed To Be Done

The verandah at Dalgety House required some serious TLC to get it back to the beautiful state it had previously been.

The work that needed to be done by the Trasan team included removal of damaged decking bearers and rubbish.

The team was required to install new decking bearers, verandah posts and additional balustrade.

 

The final stage of job was to seal the decking with coatings. Not all did this give the verandah a beautiful shined finish but it also ensure the timber was protected from the harsh environmental factors of the Pilbara.

 

 

The Result

The Trasan Team were extremely pleased with the final result of the refurbishment project. The verandah is now safe, clean and back to its original beautiful state.
