How is the Renovation Project in Ambato Progressing?
Overview of the Renovation
- The project involves a comprehensive renovation in Ambato, focusing on three floors of a building. The speaker invites viewers to stay until the end for an interesting fact about the construction process.
First Floor Developments
- A false ceiling has been installed using wooden beams salvaged from the roof tiles of the third floor, utilizing lightweight materials like fiber cement for easy installation.
- The renovations are tailored to meet client needs; in this case, expanding display space for a clothing business is prioritized. Each bathroom design includes at least one niche for personal care product storage.
Kitchen and Living Area Enhancements
- In the kitchen, initial wall plastering is underway with a linear design that integrates natural and artificial lighting effectively. A square design aims to enhance aesthetics in both dining and living areas.
- Walls that previously divided spaces have been removed to create an inviting reception area with melamine finishes and decorative elements, including plans for a visually appealing water fountain.
Second Floor Updates
- On the second floor, modern designs featuring LED strips are being implemented in bedrooms and bathrooms, marking a significant style upgrade from previous designs. Porcelain tiles are being laid out in bathrooms and jacuzzi areas by skilled workers.
- A multifunctional area is created by dividing it into laundry space and a dining area for factory workers below; this division utilizes Gibson board walls constructed by expert craftsmen.
Third Floor Transformations
- The third floor has transitioned from a single laundry room to two spacious bedrooms each with private bathrooms; one suite features its own balcony overlooking the city with initial painting already completed.
Unique Construction Insights
- An interesting fact shared: instead of traditional brick or block masonry, Gibson board was used throughout due to its lightweight nature, cost-effectiveness, ease of installation, seismic resistance, and durability against mold and pests thanks to its galvanized steel structure. This material can last between 40 to 60 years but has some vulnerabilities such as susceptibility to water damage if exposed directly to liquids.
