A substantial record of temporary protection, stabilisation and site-security work
The portfolio total is based on SCE’s internal project and invoice records. It may increase as further work is undertaken and recorded. Individual assignments differed according to the incident, authorised instructions, property conditions, occupancy, access, hazards and specialist input required.
This programme page demonstrates historical project experience. The Emergency Make-Safe Works page remains the controlled urgent-work pathway; this page does not promise a particular attendance time, insurer decision, technical outcome or permanent repair.

How to interpret this portfolio
Project experience with clear commercial and professional boundaries
Project evidence
The programme demonstrates recorded scale, geographic reach and the range of authorised make-safe activities—not an identical result for every incident.
Separate service owner
Commercial insurance-repair enquiries remain with Insurance Services. Urgent building stabilisation is routed through Emergency Remedial Building Works.
Appointed-party responsibilities
Insurance decisions, loss assessment, design, certification and statutory practitioner decisions remained with the appropriately appointed parties.

Frequently asked questions
Greater Sydney make-safe project FAQs
What does “over 1,700 projects and counting” mean?
The figure comes from SCE’s internal project and invoice records identifying more than 1,700 make-safe assignments since 2016. It may be updated as ongoing work is undertaken and recorded.
Did every assignment include the same work?
No. Each assignment depended on the incident, property conditions, access, hazards, authorised instructions and any specialist or practitioner input required.
What types of make-safe work are represented?
The records include temporary structural support, urgent structural engineering support, boarding, temporary roof and skylight covering, fallen-tree removal, fencing and barricading, hazardous-material removal, securing fire-damaged property, trip-hazard removal, removal of flood-damaged wall and floor materials, electrical isolation and mould containment.
Which client sectors are represented?
The records include insurance-related building-repair pathways, strata and owners corporation management, government and education assets, facilities management, property services and principal-contractor delivery.
Which areas are represented?
The recorded regions are the Eastern Suburbs, Sutherland Shire, St George, Inner West, Upper North Shore, Lower North Shore, Northern Beaches, Ryde, Parramatta, Blacktown, Penrith and the Blue Mountains.

Does previous delivery guarantee the same response or outcome?
No. Availability, access, site hazards, authorised instructions, approvals, specialist requirements and the necessary scope must be assessed for each new matter.
