If you need to renovate your manufacturing facility but are concerned about the fact that a lengthy renovation project could disrupt your business operations and thus affect your profit margins, here are some steps you can take to speed up this process.
1. Hire or buy a jackhammer trolley
If you are having new floors fitted in your facility, your renovation team will first need to pull up the old flooring. Performing this type of task by hand can be incredibly time-consuming and laborious, particularly in instances where a facility is very large. In such cases, this stage of the renovation work can often take a week or two.
Fortunately, you can speed up this part of your renovation project quite easily, simply by hiring or buying a jackhammer trolley. As its name suggests, this piece of equipment features a jackhammer, attached to a wheeled trolley. When pushed along a section of flooring by its handles, this piece of equipment will quickly break apart the flooring materials.
Because it is attached to a set of wheels, the operator does not have to bear the entire weight of the heavy jackhammer whilst using it and can easily glide the equipment across the surfaces that need to be broken up, even if they are not particularly strong. A jackhammer trolley can make extremely quick work of the removal of floor materials and in doing so, could potentially allow your renovation team to replace the flooring in a matter of days, rather than weeks.
2. Rent several large construction waste bins
Another easy way to ensure that the renovation of your manufacturing facility is completed as quickly as possible is to hire several large construction waste bins. The reason for this is as follows; renovating a large commercial building of this kind will result in the production of large quantities of construction waste.
If there is not enough space in your construction waste bins for this refuse, it will end up being left in piles around the facility. The presence of this waste on the floors could disrupt and slow down the renovation work. These piles may, for example, make it harder for the renovation team to access and work on specific areas of the facility.
Additionally, if the refuse contains hazardous materials (such as sharp objects), the renovation workers who come into contact with it could sustain injuries that affect their ability to participate in the renovation project. This, in turn, could lead to delays in the completion of the work. Given this, it's worth renting several generously-proportioned construction waste bins for your project.
