Client: HG Construction Ltd
Location: Vox Studios, Central London
Project: Four-storey office refurbishment
Background
Denholm Industrial Services was asked to provide 1700m2 of floor surface preparation by removing 3mm of adhesive and latex on four floors, ready for a clean seal to be applied by other contractors.
The Challenge
Denholm Industrial Services understands that construction timeframes are critical, particularly in Central London. Shortening the programme of works effectively can increase the value of our service to our clients, in this case HG Construction.
The main construction project was office fit-outs in the centre of London in a high value area. Our key considerations were the quality of the work provided in a timely manner, to satisfy the floor finishing contractor. Our challenge, therefore, was to expedite our work while strictly adhering to both Denholm Industrial Service’s stringent health and safety procedures and the site-specific requirements of HG Construction.
Our Solution
HG Construction engaged Denholm Industrial Services at the pre-planning stage and the contracts managers of both organisations worked collaboratively, combining their considerable knowledge to propose a new method of operation. They agreed to bring forward the surface preparation element earlier in the contract programme. This allowed unimpeded access to the whole floor without the complications of divided spaces that the internal partition walls would have caused. Preparing one open area as opposed to sectioned office rooms allowed the Denholm operatives to complete the project earlier than scheduled and eradicated the potential of any accidental damage caused to finished surfaces.
