BPS Global completed the Alteration and Addition (A&A) Works for the upgrade of public areas at a shopping mall in Tseung Kwan O. The project covered male, female, and two accessible washrooms along with corridor improvements. In line with the client’s requirements, the design, materials, and layout were upgraded to match the mall’s position as a key high-end retail destination.

The washroom’s design focused on simplicity, practicality and consistency with the mall’s existing style. Stone finishes, including marble, were used to elevate the overall specification, while lighting was refined to create a brighter and more welcoming space. Usability was also a key consideration. For example, independent toilet cubicles were arranged at a slight angle so users could easily see availability. Clear signage for soap and paper towels was provided at wash basins to reduce waiting time.

This was the first major washroom upgrade since the mall opened over 20 years ago, and the project involved several challenges. There were no complete records of the underground drainage system. The team had to carry out site checks and confirm pipe positions within the 90-day programme. In addition, drainage works were restricted to non-operating hours, which required detailed advance programming. The team managed the schedule closely to ensure all works were completed on time.

As a Registered General Building Contractor (RGBC), BPS Global drew on more than 30 years of experience in commercial and industrial A&A works to deliver the project within a tight programme and to a high specification. We remain committed to delivering practical and reliable solutions that meet our clients’ requirements.
