We hope you and your family are well and are planning a well deserved break after a trying 2020.
We are very fortunate that the team at Flux have been relatively unhindered on site and have made huge progress over the last few months. Everything on site to date has been clinical, with the basement now completely excavated, shotcrete basement walls completed and the tower crane erected; now forming part of the Armadale skyline. Flux hope to have both the basement slab and first suspended slab (Basement 1) poured this year and early in the new year they will begin works on the upper levels, which is very exciting. We encourage you to drive past the site whenever you can, as the building will begin to take shape at a rapid rate.
The tower crane was commissioned last week and is already in full swing. Erecting the crane is a huge milestone for the project and we are happy to report everything went exactly according to plan.
We are in a great position coming into the new year and look forward to another very busy year on site.

Previous update below:
Dear Helm Apartment Owner,
If you have driven past HELM in the last couple of weeks you will note that the external façade of the building has been completed, however there are a few panels of glass that still need to be inserted.
The entrance, apart from the staining of the front door, is virtually completed – other than one final application of render. We have attached some photos for you so you can see the welcome you will receive as you arrive home to the HELM building! There will be protective floor coverings in the reception area whilst construction traffic continues.
Internally, the building is approximately 90% complete. The Builders – FourSQ – are closing for Christmas on 22 December 2020, and are scheduled to recommence on 4th January 2021.
The anticipated inspection dates and completion dates as referenced in our last Construction Update ( No. 12) remain the same. “At this point, we anticipate being able to welcome all Purchasers for your own personal inspections of your respective Apartment in the week of 23 – 30th January 2021, with Settlement then likely to take place around the first-second week of February 2021.”
It is fair to say the external appearance of the Building looks amazing and, when internal works are complete, it will be equally as breathtaking.
We have organised an independent organisation, Property Settlement Solutions, to conduct with you your pre-settlement inspection. Our contact at Property Settlement Solutions is Zoe Mills, who is very experienced in these matters. Any defects identified during the inspection will be included in the report she prepares which will be provided to all parties ( Builder, Developer and you, the Purchaser) which then, subject to review and acceptance by the Builder, those defects will be attended to and completed prior to settlement.
We will provide you with her contact details in the New Year.
Lastly, it has been our pleasure assisting each of you throughout the Construction Process and we thank you for your on-going support and understanding now that we are entering the final phase of the build. From all of us at the Delmo Group, we wish you and yours a wonderful, safe Festive Season and a joyous start to 2021.
Please do not hesitate to contact Danielle if you have any questions. Danielle Stukenborg [DStukenborg@mcdb.com.au]

With joinery nearly complete, internal fitments are progressing well and it is starting to feel more and more like home.
External works are taking huge strides, with tiling and fencing complete, we will be starting landscaping in the coming weeks. The front façade is coming along with the hope to complete all common area works over the next month.
On site works are completed to have all utilities connected with connections to take place within next few weeks. We are aware that all major utility companies are overwhelmed by post COVID lockdown demand for new connections, but we remain optimistic to achieve our targets.
Interior construction: We are progressing with submission of required documentation to have the Plan of Subdivision approved by the relevant authority and will be hoping to avoid any lengthy delays due to the backlog of applications currently experienced by all local councils.
