As one of Tasmania’s emerging leaders in specialist commercial tiling services, Dynamic Hobart Tiling, led by Director Henry Nguyen (Cert IV in Construction and Building), delivered proven technical expertise, exceptional attention to detail, and a highly collaborative approach to the landmark University of Tasmania – The Forest development.

At the University of Tasmania’s The Forest redevelopment, Dynamic Hobart Tiling mobilised its highly skilled team of ten tradespeople to execute complex wall and floor tiling works across multiple building levels. The scope included high-use, high-expectation environments such as Level 1 End-of-Trip facilities, Level 2 Back-of-House areas, teaching spaces, and premium corporate zones, all requiring a consistently high-end architectural finish.

“This project required the installation of a wide variety of tile formats, ranging from intricate Japanese mosaics to large-format panel tiles,” explains Henry Nguyen. “Achieving the specified finish demanded advanced technical capability, accurate setting-out, and strict adherence to workmanship standards across every stage of delivery.”

To mitigate long-term waterproofing, durability, and system compatibility risks, Dynamic Hobart Tiling implemented a fully integrated Mapei system, incorporating screeds, membranes, adhesives, grouts, and silicones. “By adopting a single, fully compatible system, we were able to secure full manufacturer warranties while ensuring long-term performance and consistency across all applications,” said Henry.

Project delivery was underpinned by disciplined coordination and early engagement with the builder, consultants, and key stakeholders. Dynamic Hobart Tiling worked closely with the builder, architect, and client from initial pricing and programming through to site mobilisation and final handover, ensuring all works were delivered in strict accordance with engineering and architectural documentation.

Documentation control, sequencing, and quality assurance were managed through Aconex and BIM 360, supported by regular site meetings that maintained clear communication across trades and significantly reduced the risk of downstream rework.

For Dynamic Hobart Tiling, The Forest project demonstrates how early technical input, consistent installation methodology, and collaborative site engagement can successfully deliver complex tiling packages within high-performance institutional and commercial environments.

Established in 2022 and led by Henry Nguyen, who brings more than a decade of hands-on industry experience supported by formal construction qualifications, Dynamic Hobart Tiling has rapidly built a reputation as a trusted contractor for high-end commercial and institutional projects across Tasmania.

Getting the Details Right Where It Matters Most

Interface Tiling delivered high-performance tiling and waterproofing at 88 Leveson under tight access and sequencing constraints.

On tightly programmed residential towers, tiling and waterproofing sit at the intersection of multiple trades, compressed sequencing, and zero tolerance for failure.

At 88 Leveson, Interface Tiling was engaged to deliver technically robust, high-finish outcomes across bathrooms, kitchens, and rooftop terraces, under a programme and site environment that demanded precision, coordination, and disciplined execution.

Interface Tiling played a key role in delivering the refined, high-performance finishes across 88 Leveson, contributing complete bathroom and ensuite tiling, kitchen splashbacks, rooftop terrace tiling, and all waterproofing works throughout the project. Under the direction of David Pike, the team brought both technical expertise and detailed craftsmanship to site.

“88 Leveson had its fair share of logistical hurdles — tight access, limited parking, and restricted delivery windows kept everyone on their toes,” David said. “We also needed crane lifts to get materials up to the rooftop terraces. Our approach was always collaborative, working closely with site management to keep the programme flowing smoothly and ensure we weren’t impacting other trades.”

A critical component of the project’s long-term durability was Interface Tiling’s use of ATECH’s premium waterproofing systems. The rooftop areas were treated with ProtectoWrap sheet membranes, a solution selected for both performance and longevity. “The system gives exceptional durability and is backed by long warranties, which allowed us to deliver the kind of long-term performance the project needed,” David explained. “Our team genuinely enjoys using ATECH products. They’re consistent, user-friendly, and help us maintain a high standard of workmanship.”

Beyond systems and scheduling, the strength of the delivery lay firmly with the people on site. “Honestly, it comes down to the team,” David said. “Everyone took real pride in their part of the build. Our grout girls once again nailed the finishing details, they’re a huge reason our projects stand out.”

The finished result reflects Interface Tiling’s commitment to communication, collaboration and quality.

As Adelaide’s longest-standing waterproofing specialists, Mezcon Dayproof brought over 35 years of proven experience to the transformative Norwood Green project, delivering durable, high-performance solutions tailored to high traffic environments, providing a critical safeguard against long-term structural deterioration and costly remediation.

“We installed a complete waterproofing system from Mapei, with the scope including waterproofing for the podium plaza on level two, the retaining walls, planter boxes, and floor areas,” Operations Manager George Rowan explained. “We used a torch-applied bitumen membrane renowned for its durability and proven performance. The proprietary material comes in rolls, and provides a reliable, long-term waterproofing solution.”

In high-risk areas such as retaining walls, Mezcon Dayproof installed a double layer of membrane along with a protective drainage sheet (HDPE) to ensure maximum protection and structural longevity, using a controlled heating process to achieve full adhesion to the substrate.

While technical challenges can arise in a large-scale development like Norwood Green, George credits a smooth workflow to strong collaboration with the builder. “Buildtec were great to work with,” he said. “Materials were delivered to our yard and craned over the building when needed. Everything was well-organised.”

With a track record spanning over 35 years, Mezcon Dayproof has built a solid reputation for excellence in both residential and commercial sectors.

In addition to waterproofing, the company also offers concrete remediation, truncations, specialist grouting, shotcrete, carbon fibre reinforcement, crack injection (acrylic, pu, epoxy, etc), epoxy repairs and applications, polyurea spray and applications, as well as expansion joints, and all types of water sealing services, interior and exterior.

“Projects like Norwood Green really showcase our expertise in torch-applied membranes,” says George. “It’s where we shine, applying best practices and proven systems to ensure the long-term success of
high-profile builds.”
