Delivering Excellence in Aged Care Construction
When I led the construction of the Estia Maroochydore aged care facility as Project Manager, I knew we were creating something special for the Sunshine Coast community. This two-storey development, featuring 126 modern, spacious rooms with private ensuites, stands as a testament to the quality, efficiency and attention to detail that I've now brought to my own company, Gaia Build Co.
On-Time Delivery of Complex Infrastructure
Despite managing multiple concurrent projects in the area—including The Somerton Residences and The Brighton Apartments—I ensured the Estia Maroochydore facility was delivered precisely on schedule without compromising on quality or craftsmanship.
Purpose-Built Specialised Care Facilities
One of the most rewarding aspects of this project was constructing the dedicated 18-bed Memory Support Unit, designed with specific architectural considerations for residents requiring specialised care. These spaces demanded thoughtful design and execution to create environments that are both functional for staff and comfortable for residents.
Comprehensive Amenities Integration
The project required seamless integration of numerous specialised facilities:
Building for Community Connection
Knowing that resident John Hunter described the facility as "more than meeting expectations," with strong support from the team, reflects exactly what we aimed to achieve—creating spaces where residents feel connected to both the community within the facility and their loved ones nearby.
Strategic Partnership Approach
The project showcased the value of collaborative development relationships. Working closely with Living Choice, we established innovative resident transition arrangements between their independent living units and our aged care facility—creating a significant market advantage while addressing a real community need.
At Gaia Build Co., I've built upon this experience to develop a commercial construction company specialising in aged care facilities, multi-residential developments and community infrastructure. Our approach combines technical excellence with a deep understanding of the human elements that make these spaces successful.
Whether you're planning an aged care facility, apartment complex, or community building, Gaia Build Co. delivers the same attention to detail, project management excellence, and quality craftsmanship that made Estia Maroochydore such a success.
