The Toolshed, Hastings

PGC, as the main contractor, managed the development of The ToolShed, a new 1000m² retail shop. The project scope included precast panel installation, structural steel work, concrete foundations, drainage and plumbing, electrical and mechanical systems, timber framing, roofing, fire-cell construction, internal linings, doors, joinery, painting, landscaping, and floor coverings.
Key challenges involved working on a small, constrained site with limited parking, necessitating careful scheduling of large deliveries and contractor coordination. Coordination with council-owned stormwater and sewage assets led to delays, but the project was completed on time.
Effective communication with an out-of-town client and coordination with neighbouring properties, given the boundary-to-boundary construction, were also essential.
PGC’s meticulous planning and proactive problem-solving ensured the project’s successful and timely completion.
