Move or re-fit your office at night or at the weekend!

Every business wants to avoid staff downtime when they need to move or refurbish their business.

Out-of-hours office churn is the term that we use for moving, refitting and redecorating occupied office environments at a time when they are not being used, usually at night or over the weekend.

how we do it

First, we plan everything to the finest detail using project planning tools, including spreadsheets, drawings and schedules of exactly what we need to do and where we need to do it. Then, to carry out the whole process to the letter, our highly experienced office churn team would swing into action at 5pm on the Friday. Our teams are multi-skilled, so there’s never any waiting around for a particular tradesman. We work in carefully co-ordinated shifts around the clock to continually keep the project moving forward.

We take care of everything including IT de-commissioning and re-commissioning, decorating, waste recycling and disposal, plus all those crucial housekeeping items that are easily overlooked. To ensure it all goes like clockwork, we have our own vehicles and warehousing support.

By first thing on Monday we’re done and dusted, so that you and your colleagues can arrive at 9am and start work straight away in your new workspace.

Here's the BIG win for busy property professionals

If you find a good contractor with the right design ethos, they can often design an implementation plan that doesn’t require swing space and will often deliver the whole project with each person only moving once, to their final positions. Just imagine the cost reduction in avoiding temporary moves, and the user experience of no temporary decant for your personnel. Be careful here though because not all sub-contractors have the expertise to deliver this, its well worth asking the question when selecting your contractor and asking to speak to previous client’s to see how they deliver.

So if you need to move or re-fit your office space but can't afford to lose any staff productivity during the work - contact space-pod today.

music studio acoustic environments

Music studios require special attention when designed to perform well acoustically. 

Musical studios are not simply about the actual recording facility - they're also about the space that the musicians occupy.

Performance activities range from playing, listening and composing in smaller group rooms to orchestral performances in larger rooms, and a music room can be anything from a small practice room to a large room for rehearsing and performing music.Space-pod provides a breadth of expertise in the construction of music studio acoustics - ranging from new build construction to renovation and retro fit work.

We work with our Clients to produce a full brief outlining their acoustic requirements before starting the design of any specialist musical facility. 
We help our clients to deal the main problems associated with music studio acoustics; noise transfer between spaces, unsuitable reverberation times, flutter echoes, standing waves, and high noise levels.
