Maintained Shopping Centre Facilities

Shopping Centres are a key part of any community in modern life. In a time where the “purchasing” process is taking place more and more online and at home, it is now more important than ever for shopping centres to up their retail experience game. Individual shop tenants can do so much to maximise their customers’ experience, but to make the experience whole, the rest is for the shopping centre to get right. Everything from car parks, walkways to guest lounge areas, restaurants and entertainment selection, washrooms as well as lighting and temperature must be a delicate balance of safety, compliant, comfort and ambiance.

Over the years, JCW has completed huge projects in the improvements of guest amenities within shopping centres. We have observed the trend to shift towards creating a more experience focussed environment, rather than the traditional focus on the convenience-driven shopping trip. With trends suggesting Brits’ spending habits shifting from retail to leisure and entertainment, it is no wonder “shoppingcentres are increasingly being viewed as hub of “retailtainment”.

With decades of experience in retail maintenance, and engineers operating nationwide, JCW are never more than 4 hours away from any of our clients to deliver our trusted bespoke, planned and reactive maintenance services.

Maintenance of shopping centre facilities

The mixture of uses of a shopping complex calls for a mixture of guest amenities, amenities, the core and shell, that serve the patrons, themselves require a range of maintenance services to be kept in tip top condition and meet regulation standards.

In order for people to treat the shopping trip as a full day experience at the shopping centre, provision of well maintenance facilities are crucial. Things like well lit and well ventilated shopping centre including the car park, rest areas that offer comforting space and mood to recharge before more exploring of the shopping centre. Maintenance service plans should be drawn up according to their level of use, as well as annual regulation inspection requirements.
