The Brief
Foredowel Group was appointed to remove and replace an existing rooftop waste pipe system during a planned shutdown period, where timing and coordination were essential.
Due to the location of the pipework on the roof, the project required carefully managed crane operations alongside safe removal and installation procedures.
The Challenge
The replacement works were carried out during a shutdown period, meaning the project had to be completed safely and efficiently within a strict timeframe.
Working at height on the roof introduced additional planning and coordination requirements, with crane lifting operations carefully managed to safely remove the old waste pipe and position the new stainless steel system.
Our Solution
Foredowel coordinated the removal of the existing pipework and installation of a brand new stainless steel waste pipe system, ensuring all lifting and rooftop works were completed in a controlled and efficient manner.
The team worked within the shutdown schedule to minimise disruption and ensure the replacement system was installed and operational within the required timeframe.
