What a window + door replacement project looks like here

St Kilda Esplanade contains Vic's most concentrated pre-1939 apartment cohort, with the Acland Street + Inkerman Street streetscape under HO + DDO height limits — façade interventions on Esplanade-fronting dwellings face Heritage Vic + Council dual review.

St Kilda foreshore has been classified as Coastal Hazard Vulnerable since 2020 — basement and ground-floor habitable-space scope requires LFRA flood-resistant design.

Double-glazed timber + uPVC + heritage timber-sash restoration — NCC 2022 7-Star NatHERS U-value targets. In St Kilda specifically, victorian + edwardian + inter-war art deco apartments + esplanade mansions stock means window + door replacement scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology. Baily's Melbourne scoping flow factors heritage overlay ho5 and esplanade reserve + foreshore vpo into the estimate before a contractor is involved.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
