BDH Constructions, specialists in custom building services in Warrnambool, delivered a modern, multipurpose facility for the Salvation Army’s local branch. The project began with the demolition of an outdated indoor tennis stadium and was transformed into a comprehensive, community-focused space that now supports a wide range of services and activities.

The building features a Worship Hall, Community Hall, two Commercial Kitchens (including one for catering), Interview and Meeting Rooms, a Children’s Playground, a Children’s Care Office, and a dedicated Parent Room. Additional spaces include a Reception area, Administration Offices, Kitchen/Lunchroom, extensive storage, and both public and staff toilet facilities — all purposefully designed to enhance functionality for users.

From the outset, a focus on quality construction and collaborative planning was key. A fully detailed structural steel model was developed and meticulously reviewed by multiple stakeholders to ensure accurate alignment of all architectural and service elements. This ensured every aspect of the build — from internal finishes to external claddings — landed with precision and consistency.

The construction process included:

  • Concrete Raft Slab foundation and Structural Steel Frame
  • Seismic-rated metal wall framing and suspended ceilings
  • Metal claddings, aluminium windows, and feature blockwork
  • Extensive AV and electrical fit-out, with careful acoustic panelling integration
  • Car parking, stormwater retention systems, and full landscaping works
  • Refurbishment and relocation of a heritage leadlight window as a feature piece
