A complete strip out back to shell with unit subdivision for alternative retail use. New full height partitions were constructed primarily to subdivide the units to provide greater client flexibility for future use.
A weather-tight external hoarding was initially constructed until the new shop front was designed and installed by our specialist subcontractor. A new services trench was excavated and formed and new services run within the trench to new locations.
Existing steel work was clad to comply with fire protection regulations and the floors were ground down to remove all remnants of previous finishes.
