Season 22 of The Block is a wrap. We look back at the six biggest site protection lessons from the build, drawn from our weekly recaps and our interviews with Mark, David and Nine in Six Builders.

Nine in Six Builders have relied on Protecta for nearly ten years. Aidan shares why that trust carried onto The Block, from proactive on-site support and ZipWall® dust control to the Site Mat XTRA he calls his favourite product.

Protecta project specialist David Perna goes behind the scenes on The Block. He shares how a noise barrier became a nightclub, how Protecta Shield XTRA kept a pool spotless, and why protection has to go down early.

Protecta’s Regional Sales Manager, Mark Johnson, goes behind the scenes on protecting one of Australia’s most-watched builds. He covers last-minute requests, the surprise demand for ZipWall®, and why protecting early always pays off.

Week 3 on The Block saw the build crew turn a construction site into a nightclub, and the neighbours never heard a thing. We step away from the usual room-by-room recap to focus on Protecta Sound Noise Barrier, the acoustic panel system that made it possible: up to 60 dBA noise reduction, lightweight hook-and-loop panels, and the same product builders use every day to keep noisy work near occupied buildings from becoming a neighbourhood dispute.
