Building in DHA Phase 1 & 4 Commercial: what to plan for
- Older plazas may lack original drawings; a site survey and, where needed, a structural check by a PEC-registered engineer is a sensible first step.
- DHA building control covers these phases; façade, structural and signage changes need DHA approval – confirm the current process first.
- Original electrical systems may be undersized for modern shops; plan a load assessment and DB upgrades.
- Roof waterproofing, drainage and water tanks are frequent problem points in ageing buildings.
- Shops often keep trading during renovation, so phased work and clear access for customers matter.

Commercial Construction & Fit-out – DHA Phase 1 & 4 Commercial: questions
Is it better to renovate or rebuild an old plaza in H Block?
It depends on structural condition. A structural engineer's assessment will show whether renovation is safe and sensible; most owners renovate if the frame is sound.
Do shop tenants need to move out during a plaza renovation?
Not always. Façade and MEP work can often be phased so shops keep trading. Agree a phase plan with your contractor and tell tenants in advance.
Can I upgrade the electrical supply to an older plaza?
Usually, but a higher load may need a new connection or transformer through the power company. Your electrical contractor should assess the load first.
