At the conclusion of the Games a lot of tidying up was required to Make Good and hand back various Venues to their respective owners.
For instance the Village was leased from the Developer by Goldoc (the Principal Contractor), the Hockey, Gymnastics and Aquatic Venues needed some work prior to handing back to the Gold Coast Council and so on.
We spent the best part of three weeks cleaning literally acres of concrete soiled by tyre marks (from heavy duty lifting equipment such as cranes, booms, scissor and fork lifts) rust marks (from Scaffolding), timber stains (also from chocking Scaffolding) Paint marks (on Concrete & Bitumen), Car Parks as well as Change Rooms, Toilets and Glass.
The following photos give a fair indication of our involvement: –
These bods didn’t know about non-marking tyres?
Not perfect but greatly improved & no chemicals
Timber chock marks left in the aftermath
75 Scaffolders were on the job to dismantle poolside
Even the Lift doors shine
Hockey Venue Sparkalarkalakling
Sweeper left marks… but High Vol. Low Pressure worked a treat on car park …see the mid point line
Balustrade Glass Gleaming
Paint came off too …without chemicals
Superficial rust marks removed without chemicals
Some of our magic equipment used to get the desired results
Many thanks to our Gold Medal Team for their often exhausting efforts to finish in a timely manner with such pleasing results.
