The renovation of the Albertson’s Market located near Coors and Alameda in Albuquerque, NM included both interior and exterior renovations. 

The exterior consisted of tearing down the existing façade include tile roofs and replacing with new columns, roofs and colors, giving the store a unique look compared to the adjacent shopping center.  As with any renovation of an existing building, unseen conditions are always a challenge.  With the new columns, the designer did not anticipate the incredibly large roof drains within the existing columns.  Mick Rich and the plumbers worked together to renovate the drains to be concealed in the new façade columns and bring they up to code with overflow drains.

The interior renovation consisted in installing a new soffit throughout the store for new upgraded department signage, the installation of new coolers and freezers and upgrading the plumbing as required for both and new equipment for all department including produce, meat and seafood and the deli.

Although some work was performed during daytime business hours, most work was completed at night after the store closed for business at 11:00 pm, which is typical for so many of our retail remodels.

This Wal-Mart Super Center is located in Deming, New Mexico. It employs over 400 employees and is a 24/7 operation. The scope of work for this project consisted of renovating the Associates Break Room, the Pharmacy, the Vision Care Center and all restrooms throughout the store.  With replacement of existing refrigeration cases, we cut into the slab to tie into the existing condensation lines to and renovated the refrigeration piping as required for the new cases.  The restrooms in the store had minimal work but did include the replacement of the sinks and toilet accessories.  A portion of the vinyl flooring was replaced throughout the store as a “piece” replacement, meaning that  Walmart construction personnel would pick which tiles will be replaced during the work each night.  Both the interior and exterior of the store was painted. As with most Walmart Store, with the store open 24 hours a day, shopper and associate safety was the number one priority during construction, so generally all work was completed at night.
