Redeveloping Waves Fitness and Aquatic Centre into a modern aquatic and fitness destination

At a glance

The Hills Shire Council redeveloped the existing Waves Fitness and Aquatic Centre to include four swimming pools and a splash play area, a large gym and fitness space, a café and retail area, basement car parking, and associated site facilities.

Located in Baulkham Hills in Sydney, the transformation of the centre features a FINA-standard Olympic-sized 50-metre pool with a total of 10 lanes, a 25-metre indoor learn-to-swim and family leisure pool, a new swimming clubhouse, and an additional 20-metre warm water pool that includes spa and sauna facilities.

The redevelopment also provides new reception, retail, and management facilities, as well as a new gym and fitness centre.

DCWC (now part of RP Infrastructure) was engaged to provide comprehensive Quantity Surveying services from the initial concept design through to project delivery.

The Challenge

The project involved the redevelopment of the existing Waves Fitness and Aquatic Centre, significantly expanding its aquatic, fitness and community facilities.

Our team delivered comprehensive Quantity Surveying services from the initial concept design through to project delivery, assisting Council to select a contractor within the target budget. Through proactive cost management and contract administration, we supported the successful delivery of this major community infrastructure project.

Our solution

“The Waves Leisure and Aquatic Centre redevelopment was a major community-infrastructure project delivered by The Hills Shire Council. We’re proud to have helped The Hills Shire Council deliver a modern, high-quality facility that will serve the community for generations to come.”
