Store Extensions
Extending your Existing Traditionally-constructed Stores
“The off-site approach helps us to reduce customer disruption and programme time, and allowed a first floor extension to be completed a month earlier than with traditional construction.”
Richard Rust, Head of Construction and Delivery, Sainsbury’s
Applications of modular construction in the retail sector can also include extensions to traditionally-constructed stores – without the risk of delays, disruption or inconvenience to your customers.
This approach will also allow your extension project to be completed earlier than with conventional site-based building methods, giving you the benefit of additional trading weeks.
We can:
• Reduce the build time for store extensions
• Complete as much work as possible off site to keep customer parking to a maximum at busy trading stores – particularly important on constrained supermarket sites
• Work with your main contractor and design team
• Extend stores both vertically and horizontally
• Minimise disruption to customers’ shopping experience
• Create complete new frontages and main entrances to existing stores
• Provide a wide range of design options including timber and brick cladding and full height glazing to complement the existing store
• Achieve maximum clear spans preferred in supermarket construction
• Pre-install concrete floors and terrazzo tiling to improve quality and further reduce programme times
• Collaborate closely with your supply chain
• Ensure fast module installation – our teams will work at weekends and through the night if required.
