The Project
Pacy & Wheatley have recently undertaken our 4th major refurbishment for Wickes, which included a full commercial fit-out and refurbishment both externally and internally. Internally major changes were made where the existing kitchen, bathrooms, appliances and tap displays were removed and scrapped, and the new range displays were installed and decorated for the new Kitchen and Bathroom displays. Full decoration of the perimeter walls was also undertaken, and new flooring has been installed on the mezzanine floor. As part of this refurbishment, extensive work was carried out to the back-of-house staff facilities. Full decoration to the back of the house was also carried out, and new flooring, both Vinyl and Carpet, were installed in designated rooms and corridors within these areas.
The Challenge
This project was completed in 10 weeks, with 24/7 work being carried out throughout the refurbishment with zero accidents. A well-managed difficult logistical project achieved on time and within budget to the full satisfaction of a valued client.
A much better shopping experience for customers with a lighter, fresher feel to the sales area. In-store departments are now much more clearly defined. The staff areas also are now much brighter and fresher, with added well-being areas being formed.
