Construction for operating facilities and planned upgrades
Aged Care Refurbishment NSW
SCE Corp delivers aged care refurbishment across Sydney and NSW, including staged room, common-area, maintenance and facility upgrades. Our construction and engineering capability connects the operator’s brief with buildable work packages, coordinated services and practical staging around facility operations.A practical, scope-led approach
Plan refurbishment around the facility, its users and its constraints
Aged care work can involve occupied areas, staged access, operational interfaces and requirements set by the operator, consultants and relevant approval pathways. SCE coordinates the building work within the agreed construction scope.
The guide to planning construction in an operating facility can help organise work zones, services, communication and staged handback. Early planning establishes the condition of the area, intended use, safe access, services interfaces and information needed before construction. The delivery plan defines the scope, approvals, responsible practitioners and acceptance requirements for each stage.

A clear early-stage review
Use the occupied-building works planner to organise facility operating hours, access, essential-service interfaces and temporary arrangements before the initial project discussion.
Define the need
Share the facility, affected areas, operational constraints, available documentation and required timing.Review interfaces
Identify access, staging, resident and staff interfaces, services, approvals and consultant information relevant to the construction scope.Confirm commercial fit
Where the opportunity is suitable, define the next steps, responsibilities and evidence needed before delivery planning.Choose staging by operational impact and total delivery cost
Room-by-room refurbishment can keep more of a facility available, but it can also repeat mobilisation, protection, service isolations and handover tasks. A larger vacant work zone may give trades a more efficient sequence, provided the operator can accommodate the displaced activities and maintain safe circulation. Before procurement, agree which rooms and routes must remain available, the permitted work hours, service shutdown windows, temporary arrangements and the conditions for returning each area to use. Put those decisions into the programme so a delayed room handover does not automatically block the next stage. SCE compares the construction sequence with the facility’s operating constraints and identifies the cost and programme consequences of the staging options. The right arrangement depends on the building and care operations; continuous operation does not mean every activity can proceed without disruption.Construction experience behind facility upgrades
Managing Director Frank MANESH brings civil and construction engineering experience spanning refurbishment, accessibility modifications and senior-living infrastructure. His earlier work at North Richmond included civil infrastructure and rectification for a seniors living development. SCE applies this wider career experience when planning building access, services interfaces and the sequence of facility works. Operations Director Farshid MANESH brings estimating, procurement, programming and construction-management experience. Together, these capabilities connect the operator’s brief with practical work packages, trade coordination and staged handback. The Quakers Hill bathroom project below provides a specific SCE example of accessibility-related building work.Continue the journey

Canberra refurbishment within an aged-care community portfolio
SCE’s Canberra refurbishment project involved an existing residential property within an aged-care community portfolio. The recorded work included building repairs, carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, floor and wall finishes, appliances, painting and cleaning. The property was vacant during SCE’s work.
