Custom Manufacturing Scotland
Continuing a long association with the Co-Op, Ash Contracts was appointed by HB Projects to fully upgrade the Co-Op in Kirkcaldy. This most recent upgrade marked the 40th project undertaken by the team at Ash Contracts on behalf of various clients for Co-Ops throughout the UK.
Working from the ground upwards, the first action by the team was to identify structural issues which needed to be addressed. Ash Contracts replaced rot infected joists and then fully sheeted the flooring with a double layer of plywood to allow follow on trade to begin work on site. Ash Contracts installed partitions, suspended ceilings, and PERSTORP fire-rated Formica panelling and columns on the walls.
Tony Lochran, Director at Ash Contracts, commented:
“Our programme of works on this occasion was to create the shell of a retail unit which is fit for purpose for years to come. We applied our expert craftsmanship to produce a finished shell ready to be fitted out. We also completed all the staff areas, office areas, timber openings, the backing for external signage and we custom manufactured doors throughout the building.
HB Projects sub-contracted this programme of work to Ash Contracts on behalf of their client, Co-Op Food.
