A problem often faced by growing businesses, is providing enough washrooms and cubicles for the number of people present in the building. When a Winchester-based financial services company needed to grow their personnel by around 50, the business tasked LAN Services with adding a completely new washroom to the premises by converting an existing room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Like most buildings, the washrooms throughout the premises were directly on top of one another so that they all share the same waste pipes and mains water services. However, this new washroom was to be at the side of the building in an old storage room, which posed a problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This project required complete rerouting of the drainage pipes as well as mains water, but with careful planning, we managed to deliver this very easily without disruption to the company\u2019s day-to-day business. A call centre was part of the businesses main operations and so it was imperative that the works created very little noise. The business also had to remain online 24\/7, meaning we could not shut down the power at all during the renovations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once the mains sewerage and water feeds were in place, we began installing the new washroom. Space in the building was limited, so these facilities were unisex, so to provide increased privacy, full height cubicles made from solid grade laminate were installed. The vanity unit was also constructed from this material and carried a solid surface worktop with integrated Corian wash basins and counter mounted taps and soap dispensers. An anti-slip vinyl floor covering was used while washroom appropriate paint was used on the walls. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The business was located in the heart of Winchester city centre, which meant having to manage logistics meticulously. We provided a full specification including a process of works, the 3D imagery of the washroom ahead of works taking place and project managed this renovation from start to finish, providing a full turn-key service that was delivered on time and on the budget, with no disruption to the business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
