Relocatable Classroom Refurbishment Werribee

Relocatable Buildings Maintenance Program

Symmetry Commercial were engaged on behalf of Programmed Maintenance, after winning a competitive tender, to carry out these relocatable classroom upgrade maintenance works.

At the request of the client, we agreed to deliver two relocatable classroom upgrades in 3 weeks. Although an ambitious deadline, our flexibility combined with our experience proved very precise with the project being delivered on time and on budget!
