Reinstatement Services for Industrial Property at Boon Lay

Project Overview

This project involved the reinstatement and renovation of an industrial property, showcasing our expertise in wall hacking, floor and tile removal, and general painting and touch-up services. The property, a large industrial warehouse, required meticulous attention to detail to ensure compliance with reinstatement guidelines and building regulations. The scope included dismantling heavy industrial fixtures, hacking and removing old walls and flooring, repainting interior surfaces, and preparing the space for its next phase of use.

Our team worked diligently to transform a challenging industrial environment into a clean and functional space, suitable for its intended purpose. The property featured elements such as exposed concrete floors, partially stripped drywall, and disassembled fixtures, requiring a systematic approach to reinstate and upgrade the space. With a focus on safety, professionalism, and adherence to industrial standards, we delivered a seamless and efficient renovation process.

Technical Challenges

1. Managing Dust and Debris

Industrial properties often generate significant dust and debris during renovation, and this project was no exception. The removal of old walls, tiles, and flooring required advanced dust control measures to maintain a safe working environment. Protective plastic sheeting and tarps were installed throughout the space, ensuring that non-demolition areas and surrounding equipment were shielded from debris. Our team also employed floor scrubbers and industrial cleaning tools to maintain cleanliness during and after the hacking and removal processes.

2. Handling Heavy Machinery and Fixtures

The dismantling of heavy industrial fixtures and machinery posed a logistical challenge. The space contained large shelving units, scaffolding platforms, and other industrial components that required careful removal without damaging the surrounding structure. Our team utilized specialized equipment and adhered to strict safety protocols to ensure the secure dismantling and relocation of these elements. The process was executed with precision, reflecting our expertise in industrial fixture dismantling.

3. Floor Protection and Restoration

The concrete floors presented unique challenges, including patches of missing tiles and areas requiring grinding, levelling, or new coatings. Our floor and tile removal services were critical to eliminate damaged surfaces and prepare the subfloor for final finishes. Ensuring a durable and even finish required meticulous preparation and protective measures throughout the reinstatement works.

4. Navigating Structural Modifications

The property required significant structural modifications, including wall hacking and the removal of outdated partitions. This process necessitated careful planning to avoid compromising the structural integrity of the building. Our team worked methodically to ensure that all modifications adhered to safety guidelines and industrial property standards, delivering a secure and reliable outcome.

5. General Painting & Touch-up Works

As part of the final phase, general painting and surface touch-ups were carried out to refresh and restore the visual appeal of the space. High-durability coatings were applied to key surfaces, especially around high-traffic zones and industrial walls, to create a clean and professional appearance. Final touch-ups addressed minor blemishes, ensuring the space was both functional and presentable.

Project Considerations

Key considerations for this project included safety, regulatory compliance, and the protection of surrounding areas. The industrial nature of the property demanded a heightened focus on these aspects:

• Safety Measures: All workers were equipped with appropriate protective gear, and safety protocols were strictly enforced on-site. Exterior protection measures, such as tarps and scaffolding, were installed to safeguard both personnel and the surrounding environment.
• Protection of Surrounding Areas: Non-demolition areas, equipment, and fixtures were meticulously protected with plastic sheeting, bubble wrap, and other materials. This attention to detail ensured that the reinstatement process did not disrupt or damage the property’s existing assets.
• Regulatory Compliance: Adherence to reinstatement guidelines and building regulations was a top priority. Every step of the project was documented and communicated clearly with the client, ensuring transparency and alignment with industrial property standards.

Results

The project was successfully completed, transforming the industrial property into a clean, functional, and compliant space. Our wall hacking, floor removal, and painting services revitalized the environment, bringing it up to modern standards while preserving its industrial character. The freshly coated floors, newly painted walls, and dismantled fixtures reflected the professionalism and precision of our work.

The outcome of the project not only met but exceeded the client’s expectations. By maintaining clear communication and adhering to strict safety and regulatory standards, we ensured a seamless and efficient reinstatement process. At HackingSG, we take pride in delivering high-quality industrial renovations, and this project is a testament to our commitment to excellence. The property is now well-prepared for its next phase of use, showcasing the impact of our specialized services in industrial reinstatement.
