Interior refurbishment company PE Contracts reviews its recent work
DOES IT AGAIN S
pecialist interior refurbishment contractor PE Contracts was appointed as the principal contractor
for the UK’s first two easyGym’s which will be located in Slough, Berkshire and Wood Green, London. Both projects were run
simultaneously and after just seven weeks for Wood Green, and four for Slough, the sites were fully operational and members were enjoying the benefi ts of the budget brand’s fi rst foray into the fi tness sector. As principal contractor, PE Contracts had delivered both build projects on time and on budget, thanks to the professionalism and ‘one stop shop’ nature of their set up. Within one week at both sites all
the demolition was complete, changing rooms, ceilings, electrics, fl ooring, cubicles, showers, saunas, In total over 700yd3, an estimated 45 tonnes of material was removed from the buildings in order to facilitate the remodelling of the interior space.
Wales Millenium Centre In order to prepare the freshly
cleared, new, open plan layout, there were multiple mechanical and electrical challenges, soil and vent pipes had to be re-located, new drainage had to be core drilled and all the sub-fl oors were chased so that all the network, coaxial and power requirements for the state of the art Precor fi tness kit could be hidden. Work then began on building the 2
new clubs which made more effi cient use of the square footage available. The aim was to create larger, more airy work out areas, ensuring that, despite the low price point, members felt they were getting great value for money. In addition to the construction and
interior works, PE Contracts also produced all the construction drawings and managed the Statutory Consents and Building Control documentation. Dominic Evans, MD at PE Contracts,
says: “The easyGym brand is well recognised and the opening of the fi rst two easyGym’s in the UK is attracting a lot of interest from the national media, other fi tness operators and the leisure sector in general. All eyes were on this project and we’re proud that easyGym chose us. Keith Burnet, Keith Burnet, Joint
CEO of easyGym, says: “We chose PE Contracts for two reasons; their proven experience working in the fi tness industry and the fact that their work came highly recommended. For me, it was important not only that the fi nished project looked great and performs well over time despite high levels of usage, but that it came in on time and on budget joint CEO of easyGym, they delivered on both fronts.”
