Check out this hyperlapse capturing the successful completion of a major warehouse roof replacement in Somersby on the NSW Central Coast. This project involved the upgrade of the roof, warehouse lighting, and offices to support future growth. Key highlights included the installation of a 24,000m2 "roof-on-roof" system while allowing the warehouse to remain operational during the upgrade, efficient logistics and safety measures ensured seamless material deliveries and roof access, and the coordination of roof details to ensure the roof is weatherproof whilst ensuring compliance with BAL rating requirements. This upgrade will significantly boost operational efficiency and support the operational needs of the client. Kudos to the entire team for their hard work and dedication! ??

It is with deep sadness that we share the passing of one of SHAPE’s founders, Stephen McDonald, last week. ? Steve, fondly known as Macca or Big Ship, was one of those rare people who could light up any room with his warmth, energy, and presence. You’d always hear Macca before you’d see him, and when you did, you knew you were in for a great story. ? He was a mentor to many young SHAPIANS, supporting the careers of those who now hold senior roles at SHAPE or have gone on to build their own successful businesses. He spent time in every SHAPE office across the country, leaving behind an enduring legacy of working with a can-do attitude, while having fun in a high-performing environment. ? Steve will be greatly missed, but his impact on SHAPE and all of us who had the privilege to know him will never be forgotten. On behalf of the SHAPE family, we extend our heartfelt condolences to Fran, June, Ange, and Matt during this difficult time. ??

SHAPE Tasmania is excited to be partnering with The GO Company to roll out “Go Essential Kits” across all our Tasmanian sites now and in future. ?
