Tiled bathroom rework
The tower's rental positioning demanded a finish that matched the marketing vision. Each pod was tiled, grouted and sealed under factory conditions, with samples signed off before production ramped up.
Steel framed construction allowed the architectural specification to be met exactly, while factory QA caught defects before anything reached site. The result was a handover with no tiled bathroom rework.
