Project Strategy

What does a healthy heart look like? A healthy heart leads to a healthy community and Huntington Memorial has lead that charge for 130 years. Our team was tasked to continue to deliver that promise for Huntington Memorial Hospital, voted one of the Nation’s Top 100 cardiac hospitals.
From the initial design build stage, we partnered with Mannington Commercial, Abbott Construction, and HDR architects to build the most state-of-the-art cardiology department on the West coast. Universal Metro worked diligently to build every budget item - from standard sheet vinyl installation to the use of premier butterfly cornered self-coving, complete with heat welded seams, washed wall lighting, and a 2” pour of Ardex self-leveling underlayment to meet the floor flatness and leveling requirements of advanced imaging equipment.
The department's state-of-the-art equipment was surrounded by flooring design elements which included solid homogenous sheet vinyl in five colors in the sterile areas and a warmer, wellness-focused palette heterogenous, wood-visual vinyls in the patient recovery areas. This project has already been awarded for their design and patient care efforts, and Universal Metro was honored to work on this $600,000 project for their team.
