Industrial Reinstatement for Commercial Property at Geylang

Project Overview

This industrial property reinstatement project encompassed a comprehensive transformation of a large-scale industrial facility, which included elements such as factory spaces, warehouses, and office sections. The scope of work involved extensive dismantling, demolition, restoration, repainting, and reinstatement to meet end-of-lease requirements and regulatory compliance. A meticulous approach was required to address the unique challenges of the property, ranging from high ceilings and industrial fixtures to expansive open areas and specialized flooring materials.

Our team executed a range of activities, including the removal of bulk shelving systems, partitions, and outdated equipment, as well as the protection and restoration of structural elements such as walls, ceilings, and windows. Heavy-duty machinery and specialized tools were deployed to ensure efficiency and precision in handling the property’s industrial-grade components. We also carried out general painting and surface touch-up services using industrial-grade coatings to refresh the space and ensure it met reinstatement standards. By adhering to strict safety protocols and reinstatement guidelines, we ensured seamless communication and documentation throughout the project, delivering a safe and professional outcome for the client.

Technical Challenges

1. Extensive Dismantling and Demolition

The sheer scale of the reinstatement work posed a significant technical challenge. The removal of heavy-duty industrial fixtures, such as shelving systems, bulk partitions, and machinery, required careful planning to prevent damage to the structural integrity of the property. Ceiling elements, including mold-ridden components, skylights, and windows, were dismantled with precision, necessitating the use of scaffolding, tarps, and protective coverings to safeguard the surrounding areas. The project also involved the safe handling of electrical boards and wiring systems, further emphasizing the need for expert coordination.

2. Protection of Non-Targeted Areas

Maintaining the integrity of non-targeted areas during demolition and reinstatement was critical. Protective measures, such as reinforced plastic sheets, anti-skid mats, and coverings, were utilized extensively to shield floors, walls, and other elements from dust, debris, and accidental damage. High ceilings and expansive spaces required additional precautions, including the suspension of fans and careful placement of heavy machinery, to ensure safety while minimizing disruption.

3. Adherence to Regulatory Standards

Reinstating an industrial property demands strict adherence to regulatory compliance and safety standards. This included the safe removal of hazardous materials, such as mold-infested components, and the application of industrial-grade paints and coatings to prevent moisture and mold growth. Each phase of the project was meticulously documented and communicated with the client to ensure alignment with reinstatement guidelines and building regulations.

4. Logistical Coordination

The complexity of the project required seamless coordination among multiple teams, including electricians, painters, and demolition specialists. Managing heavy machinery, high-level dismantling, and detailed restoration work simultaneously necessitated robust project management and effective communication. Ensuring that each team worked efficiently within their designated areas was critical to maintaining the project timeline and minimizing delays.

Project Considerations

Safety as a Priority

Safety was at the forefront of every aspect of this project. Workers were equipped with appropriate safety gear, including harnesses, masks, gloves, and protective footwear. Scaffolding and anti-skid mats were strategically placed to prevent accidents, and safety boards and instructional signage were installed throughout the site to reinforce a culture of safety. By implementing these measures, we ensured a secure working environment for all personnel involved.

Protection of Surrounding Areas

The reinstatement process required careful attention to the protection of surrounding areas. Reinforced plastic sheets and tarps were used to shield floors and walls from dust, debris, and paint spills. Windows and sensitive fixtures were covered with vinyl sheets during painting and later removed with precision to reveal clean and restored surfaces. These measures ensured that non-targeted areas remained undisturbed and in pristine condition.

Client-Specific Requirements

The client’s primary objective was to restore the property to its original condition while meeting end-of-lease reinstatement guidelines. This included the removal of outdated fixtures, repainting walls with industrial-grade coatings, and ensuring the property was clean and ready for turnover. Our team worked closely with the client to understand these requirements and provided regular updates via WhatsApp to maintain transparency and alignment throughout the project.

Results

The reinstatement project was completed successfully, showcasing our expertise in handling complex industrial properties. The property was restored to its original condition, with all fixtures, partitions, and outdated components removed as per the client’s specifications. Walls, ceilings, and floors were meticulously cleaned, repaired, and repainted, ensuring a polished and professional finish.

Our commitment to safety and regulatory compliance was evident in every phase of the project, from the use of protective measures to the precise execution of each task. Despite the challenges posed by the scale and complexity of the property, the project was completed on time and to the highest standards of quality.

The client expressed their satisfaction with the seamless communication, detailed documentation, and professional outcome delivered by our team. By adhering to strict safety protocols and reinstatement guidelines, we ensured a smooth handover.
