HowTo Install Patios On An Apartment Block

Pirie Street Patios 18 Feature Image

A Difficult Patio Job Made Simple With Stratco & Budget Built Home Additions

When Stratco Authorised Outback® Dealer Budget Built Home Additions was approached by customers from an apartment block on Pirie Street, Adelaide, they were presented with a unique job. The customers wanted to have Stratco Outback Patios® installed to help complement their outdoor living spaces. Whilst this sounds like a standard job for an Authorised Outback Dealer, this particular job was different. These customers were all situated on the top storey of their apartment block and wanted Outback Patios® on the rooftops. What would normally be a simple install turned into a difficult job with the patios needing to be lifted 10 storeys to the rooftop of the apartment block.

Installing The Patios In Winter Weather

One more difficulty arose on the morning of the crane delivery - the weather. Early morning showers hampered the delivery only slightly, with the crew at Morgan's Cranes able to work through the wet conditions safely and continue the delivery to the top storey apartments in time. The weather cleared as the morning went on, and with no issues, all items were placed safely on the respective rooftop entertaining areas so the team at Budget Built could make a start with the Outback Patio® installations.
