Leading Townsville-based mechanical and electrical contractor Peak ARE (Airconditioning, Refrigeration and Electrical) will play a major role in the construction of one of the city’s most anticipated projects.

Peak ARE is the successful mechanical services tenderer for the Breakwater Hotel Development currently under construction on the Townsville Breakwater.

Director Brad Swaffer said the Peak ARE team would deliver a fully reticulated chilled water air conditioning system as part of the luxury, seven-storey hotel project, demonstrating its continuing growth in both capacity and reputation.

“The Peak ARE team is extremely proud to be named as a key contractor for such a significant project for Townsville,” Brad said.

“Our capability as a local business to deliver a project of this magnitude really validates our work towards evolving into a leader in our industry and, along with our other projects, secures us a solid pipeline of work for the next 12 to 18 months,” he said.

“The Breakwater Hotel Development will not only help shape the future of the Townsville shoreline but likely have a legacy impact on the local economy and tourism industry more broadly, so it’s wonderful to be involved.”

The Morris Group development being delivered by Prime Constructions Australia will include a 132-room luxury hotel as well as a seventh floor recreational precinct featuring a bar, restaurant, infinity pool and expansive deck.

A team of up to 20 Peak ARE mechanical and electrical staff will fully deliver the supply, installation and maintenance of all associated air conditioning, mechanical ventilation, and refrigeration systems to the project.

Prime Constructions Australia Project Manager Rick Stevens said its team is looking forward to working with Peak ARE for the first time.

“As a North Queensland-based company we were pleased to engage a local, Townsville business which stood out from the rest after a competitive tender process,” he said.

“At Prime, we have a solid reputation in developing world class hotels and we always look forward to working with construction partners whose professionalism and expertise align with our high standards.”

From its beginnings in a double garage in South Townsville in 2004, Peak ARE has developed into a respected and diverse business employing over 60 staff with its new, expanded headquarters on Bayswater Road due to open later this year.
