Jenolan Caves

A tranquil few days were spent at Jenolan Caves earlier this year, installing a self supporting, zero impact scaffold to enable access for upgrade works on the dam wall.

The delicate surrounds had to be protected with endangered flora and fauna identified in the work area. All of the equipment was carried to the work area to avoid compaction by vehicles and the design had to account for 1 tonne winching and horizontal movement to enable the Client to remove and replace large valves.

It is such a pleasure to work on a diverse range of challenging and interesting projects in our beautiful region, meeting new contractors and seeing new places are just some of the perks of the work that we do.

Game On 2021

After the cancellation of major events last year, we were keen to get in and set up for the Panthers Vs Manly NRL game to be hosted in Bathurst this weekend.

With stunning autumn weather onside, we finished the build in record time. The main deck is now ready and waiting to receive its VIP guests this Saturday from 3pm!

We are so proud to be part of the huge crew of professionals that come together to host such an event here in Bathurst.

Best of luck to all the Players!

That's a Wrap for 2018!

As another busy year comes to an end, it is a time of reflection and gratitude…

On reflection, we have had the opportunity to work on a diverse range of projects, a small sample of what was achieved in 2018 is shown below.

And it is with gratitude that we thank all the wonderful clients, suppliers and contractors that we have had the pleasure of working with this year. We are looking forward to all the exciting projects in the pipeline for 2019.

And a huge thanks to all of our valued employees for their efforts and contribution throughout the year.

Water Reservoir

Full perimeter scaffold for blast and paint works to be completed.

Goulburn Uniting Church

The Kedar Roof structure being craned into place on this multiphase project was a significant milestone. The weather proof membrane enabled interior works to proceed after the spire had been demolished.

More to come on this project in 2019.

Bloomfield Medical Centre

The BMC project team have been working hard for the last few months bringing this structure to life. This project is on track for completion in the new year.

Menindee Rail Bridge

Hung scaffold for bridge maintenance.

Newington College

This 34m high cantilevered scaffold will provide safe and reliable access for restoration works on the spire of the Founders Building at Newington College this summer.

This project was completed last week, a wonderful achievement to finish out the working year.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Goulburn Uniting Church

Restoration works at the Goulburn Uniting Church have been a long-awaited project for many, with 3 years of collaboration between Dunbar Scaffold Hire, engineers, architects and the Church to see this project come to life. The local community have shown great support, with one passer by giving our Supervisor an image of the Church dating back to its original construction.

The design parameters were another of the many aspects which made this project so rewarding. The delicate slate roof of the church meant that nothing could be built around the rear of the spire, therefore the entire structure had to be self-supporting as the spire is to be demolished and re built.

Standing at a mighty 30m high and self-supporting, Dunbar Scaffold Hire is proud to see the first phase of this historical project handed over for the restoration works to commence.

Congratulations and well done to our team of talented scaffolders for taking this design from concept to reality!
