GTA civil on the ball with new Portaloo changing rooms
02/07/2007
When consulting engineers GTA Civils were contracted to oversee the
complete refurbishment of a prestigious London
sports ground, the company needed to source high quality temporary changing
facilities to enable the scheduled sporting fixtures to continue uninterrupted.
Alistair Antram, Project Manager at GTA Civils, said, ‘The temporary
accommodation we provided had to be the best available in order to satisfy the
exceptionally high expectations of the clientele who use the facilities. Only Portaloo
could provide the quality of building we were looking for, and their proposal
fitted our project plan precisely.'
Portaloo supplied ten top-of-the-range toilet, shower and
changing buildings and a disabled persons' toilet building. Some of these were
configured to create a two-storey facility, and Portaloo provided all
the necessary access steps required to facilitate this.
As prompt delivery of the buildings was critical to the refurbishment
programme's schedule, the pioneering Portaloo Customer Charter* provided
the team at GTA Civils with complete peace of mind that the agreed project
start date would be met.
The Charter assures customers of timely deliveries with its promise that
all buildings will be delivered on time and on budget. It also promises that if
Portaloo ever fails to meet this commitment the customer will be
entitled to a week's free hire for every day it is late.
The buildings for the sports ground were delivered and installed on
schedule by the Portaloo team, ready for connection to services.
Alistair continued, ‘The Portaloo team were very efficient and
professional, adhering to strict health and safety procedures. All of the
buildings arrived fully fitted out. All we had to do was connect them to water
and electricity supplies, and they were ready for immediate use. They arrived
in excellent condition and were of a very high specification.
‘People using the facilities were very happy with the interim
accommodation, which catered for a large number of sportsmen and women. Portaloo
provided an excellent maintenance service too, ensuring that the facilities
continued to deliver optimum performance throughout the hire period.'
