KEY FACTS

Location: Greensboro, NC

Type: Building Clean-out including data center and electrical room

Scope: Prepare the interior for build out and relocation of Christ Church

Duration: 2 weeks

Client: Christ Church

Christ Church in Greensboro had located a former Data Center building that they wanted to remodel and use as their new church. Buddy Turner and his team solicited a number of quotes from local construction companies to do an interior demolition of the site, but the numbers they got back were very high. They needed everything to be removed before they could convert the space into a place of worship. That’s when they found Quantum Technology. We were able to pay Christ Church for the assets we took out of the building. They used that money towards the purchase of new Church flooring. All the labor was done for free, including the disconnect and removal of UPS equipment, the electrical room, remediated R22, raised access flooring — all while leaving their partitioning walls intact. We even left a stage of raised flooring for them to use for their pulpit.

Project Details:
The data center contained raised floor, cooling units, PDU’s, UPS’s and other equipment. All equipment was disconnected and removed. The console was dismantled and removed. Data center furniture like this is often available from Quantum at the 200K SF warehouse in Shippensburg PA. The space was transformed into a beautiful place of worship.
