Jan Juc’s commercial base is small, one shopping strip on Princes Terrace plus a college campus and clubs, yet we have done 10 jobs here, 7 for commercial clients. Most were doors and locks for a water authority and a facility manager.
Apart from the Princes Terrace shops, Jan Juc’s commercial buildings are a private P–12 campus, the Torquay Golf Club, the surf club and a reserve pavilion.
For a water authority we have installed stainless double and single doors at one site and fitted plate-type handles and locking to a main door and double doors at another. We refixed a stainless door with new bolts and a repaired cylinder, and swapped double external doors for solid-core doors with panic bolts, plus a single door with a new mortice lock.
We refitted a commercial toilet: door and lock made good, indicator bolts, painting, an epoxy floor, and new dispensers and holders. On another building we cleaned gutters, laminated rotten rafter ends, replaced fascia and an eave sheet and refitted the gutter with a guard. One lock call-out turned out to be a faulty key.
The Princes Terrace strip is 0.4 hectares with 31 addresses, described as the town’s only commercial centre. Christian College’s Surf Coast campus added Year 7 classrooms with $1.8 million of federal money in 2025, and the Torquay Golf Club actually sits on the Jan Juc side of Spring Creek. Over half of the shopping zone is bushfire-prone.

Beyond our expectations, and it was great to work with people who could turn our ideas into something better than we imagined. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
Prompt, great communication and a terrific job. Have used JF Maintenance for lots of work over the years and would recommend.
Michael worked with our budget and we were so impressed by their diligence and workmanship. They did not cut corners but went the extra mile. So impressed we engaged them again at another property.
Jan Juc began to be developed as a coastal township in the mid-1960s, and by 1992 it had nearly 1,200 dwellings. Apart from a small neighbourhood shopping centre, shopping is done in Torquay or further afield.
The boardwalk contract for the Jan Juc Creek daylighting project was awarded in April 2026, and the coast authority has tendered to replace the beach access ramp. One small strip, a busy campus and the clubs keep the work here practical and local.
