Transforming Spaces for Fun and Safety
When it comes to commercial renovations, choosing a General Contractor with the right experience is crucial. At S.A. Casey Construction, we specialize in delivering high-quality specialty construction projects that meet both aesthetic and functional needs. One of our standout projects is the transformation of Kidiverse, located near the Orlando Airport, into the ultimate indoor playground—a space where children can play, learn, and explore in a safe and engaging environment.
Project Overview
Location: Kidiverse, Orlando, FL
Scope: Complete interior and exterior renovation for a children’s indoor playground
Objective: Create a safe, fun, and educational environment for kids, while providing comfort and convenience for parents.
Exterior and Interior Renovations
Exterior Façade Improvements:
Our team made significant exterior modifications to the side façade, enhancing the building’s visual appeal. The before-and-after images of the front entry showcase the dramatic transformation we achieved.
Vibrant and Durable Flooring:
Underneath the main playground area, we installed VCT flooring featuring scattered vibrant colors. Our flooring experts collaborated closely with the owners to ensure the color scheme complemented the overall design vision.
Snack Bar and Lounge:
We built a cozy snack bar and lounge for parents and children to relax. Close coordination with the equipment supplier ensured that all equipment fit perfectly within the limited space and was properly connected.
Playful and Safe Climbing Wall:
One of Kidiverse’s standout features is its interactive climbing wall and electronic game circles. Our priority was to ensure structural integrity, so we used steel supports anchored to existing beams and columns to guarantee safety.
Indoor Playground Installation:
The main playground includes interior tube slides and various climbing areas. Careful coordination was essential to meet ceiling clearance requirements and seamlessly integrate safety features.
Stage for Performances:
We constructed a small stage for kids to sing and play. Navigating city codes and regulations with the City of Orlando was a rewarding challenge that ensured compliance and safety.
Structural Safety Enhancements:
An Unistrut structure with pink safety protectors was installed to prevent injuries. Additionally, new metal framing supported all perimeter drywall, replacing the previous tenant’s ceiling setup.
HVAC and Roofing Upgrades:
We installed new ductwork, air conditioning diffusers, and state-of-the-art rooftop AC units. A new metal roof was added to ensure the facility remains cool and dry, providing year-round comfort.
Challenges and Solutions
- Space Constraints: Precise coordination was required to fit playground equipment into the available space without compromising safety.
- Code Compliance: Worked closely with the City of Orlando to meet all building codes, particularly for the stage and climbing wall.
- Safety Integration: Implemented steel supports and safety padding to ensure a secure environment for children.
