Philton Group brought their reputation for quality and consistency to the Floret Glen Waverley development, where they were engaged to deliver full tiling services across the multi-residential project.

Their scope covered bathrooms, ensuites, kitchens, and laundries—key wet areas that demand both durability and aesthetic cohesion.

“Given the size of the project, we staged the works and had a dedicated team on-site to maintain workflow and meet key deadlines,” said Tony Fakhoury, Managing Director of Philton Group.

While all tiles and finishes were selected by the client and design team, the Philton crew was responsible for executing those selections to the highest standard. “We worked strictly to the construction drawings and tile schedules to deliver everything to spec and on time,” Tony explained.

“Our focus was on clean, accurate installations with consistent quality throughout,” Tony said. That quality-first mindset helped ensure the finishes complemented the premium look and feel of the broader Floret Glen Waverley design vision.


Philton Group has expanded its business footprint with the recent acquisition of TILEPRO Australia and Melbourne Home Centre, adding the capacity for a tile and bathware showroom in Epping, as well as a warehouse to support wholesale supply to other tilers and builders. “This helps us offer better service, faster lead times, and a full end-to-end solution for our clients,” Tony said.

The move positions Philton Group to further enhance its service offerings while supporting the broader industry with premium products and logistical efficiency.

As both a trusted tiling contractor and a growing supplier, Philton Group is well placed to continue delivering precision and reliability across Victoria’s residential and commercial construction landscape.

Farrar was tasked with crucial engineering responsibilities on the Floret townhouse development, a vibrant collection of 77 architecturally crafted homes in Glen Waverley, developed by Golden Age Group and delivered by Figurehead Construction.

“Farrar played a central role in designing the concrete slabs, retaining walls, and in-ground drainage systems essential to the project’s long-term performance and resilience,” said David Farrar, Director, underscoring Farrar’s hands-on approach to civil and structural engineering excellence.

Floret is set on a 16,500m² site and features a mix of 3-4-bedroom residences over two and three storeys, each meticulously designed by Rothelowman with lush landscaping by Aspect Studios. Delivering these premium townhomes required robust foundational and drainage solutions to manage both structural loads and water flow in a suburban context.

Constructed on ground-floor waffle slabs with prefabricated framing, each residence was delivered with consistent programming and sequencing. Farrar ensured every concrete platform and retaining structure met the project’s strict standards for quality and durability, while integrated drainage systems safeguarded against water issues, an essential consideration in a dense, high-end residential environment

Farrar’s involvement helped secure the engineering integrity that supports Floret’s seamless integration of built form and living landscapes. Their contribution continues to be a quiet, but vital element beneath the elegance of this growing Glen Waverley community.
