Location

Duration

Value

£1.6 million

As with many of our John Lewis projects, these works were undertaken in a live retail environment delivered over a number of phases so as to reduce the impact to store’s trade. 

Project Profile

This project included capital maintenance works followed by the ceiling replacement within a live retail environment. To complete the works, we utilised six phases, each of which were segregated by secure sustainable hoarding.

 

Prior to the commencement of each phase, our team moved all shopfit out of the area and once the hoarding had been erected, the draining down of sprinklers was completed. This enabled isolation and the plug in of sprinkler heads. From there, the ceiling was removed within, capital maintenance works undertaken and M&E services reinstalled prior to the full ceiling installation.

 

Challenge & Solution

Due to the works being carried out 24 hours a day, we had to ensure site security was upheld. Our site managers walked round the site hoarding before and after every shift to ensure security and carried out detailed daily handover meetings. 

 

Client meetings were held regularly to ensure all staff in the store were kept up to date of new phase locations, site progress and also had the opportunity to raise any queries.
