COOP Hall Green

Omnium Projects was appointed as the principal contractor for the re-modelling and conversion of a disused commercial unit into three self-contained residential flats. This project involved extensive renovations and compliance with current building regulations to transform the space into high-quality living units.

The project began with the complete strip out of the first-floor commercial retail space, which had been unused for several years.

• Comprehensive electrical and plumbing designs were developed to support the creation of three new one-bedroom flats. This included the installation of new acoustic floors and partition walls to meet building regulations.

• Roof repairs were carried out, and new UPVC windows were installed. High-quality bathroom suites and kitchens were designed and fitted, complemented by soft furnishings and neutral decorations.

• With no existing site construction detail drawings available, the project incorporated an element of design and build, allowing for flexibility and on-the-spot problem-solving.

• Due to the change of use from commercial to residential, close liaison with local authorities and building control was essential to ensure compliance with statutory regulations.

• Special attention was given to site security, scheduled material deliveries, and waste removal, all while coordinating with adjacent tenants in a live business environment.

Regular on-site inspections were conducted in conjunction with the client’s representative to maintain high standards of quality assurance. This included defect identification and rectification across all areas.

A robust and well-defined program was developed to address the complexities of converting a redundant commercial premises into residential units. Regular progress monitoring and proactive measures ensured the timely completion of all flats concurrently.

The project was completed promptly, transforming a neglected commercial space into three modern, self-contained residential flats, meeting all regulatory requirements and client expectations.
