00:00 I'm here with Tony Durham at the Northern Rivers Hotel.
00:03 Can you tell me a bit about some of the work you've done here, Tony?
00:06 We took over on the 7th of July.
00:09 We had to take the roof off and re-sark it,
00:13 put new box gutters in around the roof to waterproof it.
00:16 Yeah.
00:18 90% of the avian windows have been replaced.
00:21 They're all timber ones.
00:24 The dining room floor was timber.
00:27 It was not good. We ripped it up and concreted it.
00:31 Yeah.
00:32 Can you tell me how high the water came here in the hotel?
00:35 The water came up so high upstairs.
00:38 Oh, upstairs.
00:39 Yeah, so...
00:41 ..probably about six inches above the ceiling height
00:44 on the windows upstairs.
00:45 Yeah. There must have been a lot of damage here.
00:48 I hope so, yeah.
00:49 OK.
