Shire of Ravensthorpe – Bluevista Bush Fire Brigade Building

PCG served as the principal contractor for the Bluevista Bush Fire Brigade (BFB) building in the Shire of Ravensthorpe. This facility is designed to store two large fire trucks and includes essential amenities such as toilets at the rear of the building. The design, adapted from the Jacup BFB build for the Shire of Jerramungup, features a fully equipped kitchen and meeting room, providing a community meeting space. Large water storage tanks were installed to ensure a reliable water supply for filling fire trucks when needed. The project was completed on time and within budget, with a $12,000 cost saving achieved through effective communication and flexibility. Challenges such as the Western Power application and location of power were managed efficiently, demonstrating our competency and proven track record. We continue to support the Shire by assisting with grant applications for future builds.
