Deluge of rainwater resulted in a catastrophic failure of the roof requiring emergency evacuation of this 90-bedroom hotel in Waterford due to substantial water ingress on the entire ground floor. Hibco was appointed as the nominated contractor by the insurers and owners of the building. Scope of the project was to secure the building, execute remediation and restoration works followed by a complete turnkey fit out. The client’s key requirement was minimising business interruption and downtime which Hibco facilitated by running the project 24hrs a day, 7 days a week for 8 weeks thus returning the hotel to normal operation in the shortest time possible.
