Challenge

Following damage caused by the earthquake in 2011, the owners of the buildings decided to complete a pragmatic repair to the earth quake damaged buildings bringing the buildings up to +67% New Building Standard (NBS).  This required the extension of the foundations to the buildings.   The building owners also completely renewed the damaged drainage systems, renew the badly settled car park structure including kerbs, channels and pavements.  To compliment this, the exteriors of the buildings were given  fresh decorations.  Internally, the tenancies have had wall and ceiling cracks repaired and a fully redecorated along with vinyl floor to the kitchen and bar areas.

The tenancy works were carried out over a two week period fully reopening on time and to the delight of the patrons eager for a pint!

Value

Project & construction management with the correct selection of contractors and suppliers, combined with the detailed pre planning of the timeline and phasing of the works around the license for the tenant to trade.  All the Pokies and furniture were removed form site to allow fast efficient fit out to take place, on time and to the tenant satisfaction.  The land lord was very pleased with colour choices, after all he chose them!

Testimonial

Pace was the project management company in charge of earthquake repairs to the QE11 shopping centre of which Chats Bar is a major tenant in the complex.
I found that Pace and their contractors were very professional and courteous at all times. 
The work done, in Chats Bar particularly, was to a very high standard and completed in the time-frame I was given.
I appreciate the manner in which I, as a tenant, was treated by everyone involved and especially for the constant communication.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Pace for any future projects.
