What a full home renovation project looks like here
Eastern Rozelle is mapped as Acid Sulfate Soils Class 5 under Inner West LEP 2022 — any excavation deeper than 1m within the overlay requires an Acid Sulfate Soils Management Plan, which adds 3-4 weeks to a footing-work programme.
The Rozelle Heritage Conservation Area DCP requires retention of 'character-defining elements' including original timber weatherboards, corrugated-iron roofs, and bullnose verandas — replacement materials must be like-for-like even when the original is rotted beyond reuse.
Many Rozelle cottages were re-clad with asbestos-cement weatherboards in the 1950s-60s — full re-cladding requires a NSW SafeWork Class B (non-friable) asbestos licensed contractor, typically adding A$8,000-15,000 to an exterior-restoration scope.

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.
