The Guardianship Journey

Guardianship Program

The assessment is the starting point. SRM can remain beside the client through scope of works, tender, delivery oversight and long-term care of the roof.

Flexible by Design

One stage, selected stages or complete continuity.

Engage SRM for one stage, selected stages or the complete Guardian Program. Each engagement is separately scoped to the property and the support required.

The Four Stages

One independent partner. The full journey.

The Guardianship Program covers every stage from first independent assessment through procurement, delivery and long-term monitoring — delivered independently of any repair scope, contractor commission or product supply.

Assessment & Report
Stage 1 · The starting point

Establish the actual condition of the roof and provide an evidence-based plan the committee can act on.

  • Independent on-roof assessment
  • Photographic findings & defect register
  • Risk & priority classification
  • Practical committee-ready recommendations
Scope of Works & Tender
Stage 2 · Independent procurement

Define exactly what is required so contractors can price the same work on a genuinely comparable basis.

  • Detailed independent scope of works
  • Suitable contractors identified & pre-checked
  • Tender issue, queries & apples-to-apples review
  • Independent recommendation to the client
Delivery Oversight
Stage 3 · Independent oversight of the works

Ensure the selected work is delivered against the agreed scope, with independent monitoring of quality, variations and claims.

  • Materials & methodology review
  • Progress oversight & photographic records
  • Variation & payment claim review
  • Practical completion & close-out
Ongoing Guardianship & Monitoring
Stage 4 · Long-term care

Annual assessment cycles, condition monitoring and long-term planning — the roof managed as an asset, not addressed only after failure.

  • Annual roof assessment cycles
  • Maintenance & sinking-fund planning
  • Insurance-readiness documentation
  • Committee & manager guidance across the years
The Philosophy

A roof is an asset — treat it like one.

Strata roofs are among the largest single assets most buildings own, yet they are often the least actively stewarded. The Guardian Program Program brings the same structured, evidence-based discipline that already applies to other major building systems.

One independent partner, one continuous record — assisting better-documented decisions across the life of the roof.

  • The Asset

    Evidence-based intervention timed to when the roof genuinely needs attention — supporting extended service life.

  • The Committee

    A documented record of assessments, findings and decisions that supports better-documented committee decisions over time.

  • The Claim

    An independent condition baseline and photographic history that supports insurance and maintenance records.

  • The Budget

    Planned, sequenced expenditure aligned to the sinking fund — assists long-term budget planning and reduces the likelihood of unexpected expenditure.
