HOW WE HELP NORTH SHORE BUSINESSES

Carpentry for North Shore’s industry

There is no shopping zone in North Shore. More than half the suburb is Industrial 2 land and about a quarter is port, with a small pocket of homes.

Openings in working buildings

We cut a new 2100 x 1840 double-door opening into an existing wall of an industrial building, framed it in timber, matched the handle, sealed it all round and painted it. Partitions, doors and offices inside units are the same kind of job.

Seaside Parade, Beatty Street and Walchs Road

North Shore’s 233 industrial addresses run along Seaside Parade, Seabright and Seaforth Streets, Beatty Street and Walchs Road, with strata units at 6 Beatty Street and at 7 Seaside Parade, near our own base. On this land a street fence needs a permit if it is solid and over 1.5 metres high, or unpainted galvanised steel or uncoated wire, and offices are encouraged at the front of the building.

Port land and the homes

North Shore holds 56 hectares of port land, including Corio Quay North with a woodchip business and a grain bunker. Around the homes, an overlay for the port means buildings and works need no permit unless they are linked to an office, childcare, education, accommodation or a place of assembly. Parts of the port land are also in flood and coastal-inundation overlays.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY

What our clients say

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.

Boaz Ang

Prompt, great communication and a terrific job. Have used JF Maintenance for lots of work over the years and would recommend.

David Meade

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.

NORTH SHORE QUESTIONS

Commercial carpentry in North Shore — common questions

Where are you based?
On Seaside Parade in North Shore, so jobs in the suburb are on our doorstep.
Can you cut a new doorway into an existing wall?
Yes. We have framed, sealed and finished a new double-door opening in a North Shore industrial building, with a handle to match the existing hardware.
Do I need a permit for building works in North Shore?
It depends where. In the port overlay around the homes, works linked to an office, childcare, education, accommodation or a place of assembly need a permit, while other works there do not. We check your address first.
Is North Shore land flood-prone?
Some of it. About 5 hectares, mostly port land, is in a Special Building Overlay for flooding, and a smaller area is in a coastal inundation overlay.
How much work have you done nearby?
Plenty. We have done 108 jobs in North Geelong and 59 in Corio, both next door.
DOING BUSINESS IN NORTH SHORE

How North Shore turned industrial

Industry arrived in 1899 with a meat freezing works. The mouth of Cowies Creek was dug out to become Corio Quay from 1909, and by the mid-1920s the area around the creek had become known as North Shore.

Today more than half the suburb is Industrial 2 land and a quarter is port, with no shopping zone at all. Commercial work here means units, workshops and port sites.
