When it comes to grand projects that define the essence of design, scope, and scale, the recent commercial flooring project that The Flooring Room undertook at the Whakatāne District Council’s civic centre stands out. The massive redevelopment venture, helmed by Chow Hill Architects, posed its set of unique challenges and moments of ingenuity.
The Architect’s Choice: Quality and Elegance
Specified by Chow Hill Architects, the project made use of Inzide Commercial Carpet Tiles, Inzide Vinyl flooring, and Jacobsen Carpet Tiles. These products, known for their durability and aesthetic appeal, ensured that the civic centre was not just functional but visually captivating.
Challenges: The Age and Scope of the Project
Refurbishing an old building of this magnitude was never going to be a walk in the park. With approximately 3,000m2 of carpet tiles and 450m2 of vinyl flooring to be installed, extensive floor preparation was inevitable. The age of the structure meant unforeseen issues could arise, demanding flexibility and problem-solving on the fly.
Team Power: Ensuring Efficiency and Timeliness
Understanding the sheer scale of the project, The Flooring Room ensured that a large team of installers was in place. With 6 installers committed over a 3-month period, it allowed for optimal use of the construction slots available. Working amongst various other subtrades within tight timeframes showcased not just the efficiency of The Flooring Room’s team but also their commitment to collaboration and excellence.
A Passionate Endeavour: The Flooring Room’s Perspective
The Flooring Room’s Commercial Manager exuberantly stated, “This central structure in the Whakatāne community was a vibrant and forward-thinking project.
