Yarralumla Woolshed Heritage Works
Project Details:
The Yarralumla Woolshed is an iconic Canberra building that was built in the year 1904 by Fredrick Campbell. It is now a heritage listed building that has been kept in its original condition and has been retained for the Canberra Community for special community use and various social uses. Due to the age of the building, the property was due for scheduled repairs.
Aris Building Services with its long-standing history of delivering repairs on heritage listed buildings were successful on this tender and were engaged to undertake these repairs. We sourced specialist timbers and individually hand-picked materials to ensure the works that were completed met or exceeded the Statement of Heritage Effects and ensured longevity of the building.
Repairs included:
- Roof replacement and repairs with like-for-like roof sheeting and screw fixings
- Replacement of access decks with Aris Building Services sourcing like-for-like timbers to match the existing species and age of timbers
- Repairs to timber windows and doors
- Workmanship including detailing to flooring and wall paneling was completed as per original build details to match the level of craftsmanship at its original construction
All works were completed to meet an old world level of craftsmanship integrated with a modern world level of compliance
