Project Overview

Lee Mechanical provided a full design-build MEP package for Associated Wholesale Grocers’ new 17,000-square-foot vehicle maintenance facility. AWG required a robust, efficient, and code-compliant environment to maintain and service its fleet of semi-trailers, which included mechanical maintenance bays and a dedicated wash bay. Our team streamlined the entire process—delivering HVAC, electrical, and plumbing solutions specifically engineered for heavy-duty vehicle operations.

HVAC System Design & Installation

  • Industrial-Grade Exhaust & Ventilation: Implemented high-performance exhaust systems to mitigate fumes and enhance indoor air quality for technicians.
  • Energy-Efficient Controls & Zoning: Tailored climate control to maintain comfortable working conditions while minimizing operational costs.

Plumbing & Compressed Air Systems

  • High-Capacity Wash Bays & Maintenance Stations: Designed for heavy usage with an emphasis on reliability and regulatory compliance.
  • Compressed Air Infrastructure: Installed piping to service multiple repair bays, supporting pneumatic tools and tire inflation.

Electrical & Lighting Solutions

  • High-Output LED Lighting: Maximized visibility in maintenance bays with energy-saving fixtures.
  • Power Distribution & Scalability: Provided robust circuits for specialized equipment, lifts, and diagnostic tools, with electrical rough-ins for future expansion.

AWG’s New Maintenance Hub

By leveraging our design-build approach, we reduced project costs, streamlined coordination, and compressed the overall schedule, all while delivering a facility that meets AWG’s rigorous standards for safety, efficiency, and heavy-duty performance.

Now fully operational, the AWG Vehicle Maintenance Building ensures seamless servicing and upkeep of the company’s vital trucking fleet—underscoring Lee Mechanical’s commitment to excellence in design-build MEP solutions.
