Warehouse Renovation in the UAE to Upgrade How Your Building Works
Warehouse renovation in the UAE is the step beyond repair. The building may be sound, but it no longer suits the operation. A dry store is becoming a cooled one. A new production line needs a platform and guard rails. A tenant wants more daylight, an extra loading door, or safe access to roof plant that was never planned for.
Leak Lock Insulation Contracting delivers the roof, cladding and steelwork parts of a warehouse upgrade in Dubai and the other emirates. We act as the specialist contractor for owners and facility managers, and as a subcontractor to fit-out and main contractors who need a factory renovation contractor for the envelope and metalwork packages.
Reasons Clients Renovate a Warehouse
For example, clients contact us for one or more of the following reasons.
- Change of use: the space must be cooled, cleaner or divided differently.
- Heat and energy cost: single skin roofs and walls make cooling expensive.
- Poor daylight: too few skylights, or sheets that have yellowed.
- New equipment: plant needs platforms, supports and access steelwork.
- Safety gaps: roof access, edges and skylights lack protection.
- New openings: extra doors, louvres or ventilation are required.
