PetSuites Lakeville: A Collaborative Success
This project represents a remarkable blend of thoughtful design, sustainability, and technical innovation. Highlights include:
Design Excellence: Bold green and purple accents create a playful, modern aesthetic that reflects the PetSuites brand.
Engineering Innovation: Sambatek, along with geotechnical and structural engineers, collaborated to establish grades for the 25-foot geo grid retaining wall, maximizing land use while ensuring stability. Proper grading and stormwater management systems were critical to direct water away from structures, reducing flood risks and protecting local ecosystems.
Community Integration: The facility complements its surroundings while meeting a growing need for high-quality pet care services.
These practices highlight the importance of collaboration, innovation, and environmental responsibility in creating functional, enduring projects.
Join Us in Celebrating!
As we gather with industry peers, we reflect on the teamwork and dedication that brought PetSuites Lakeville to life. Stay tuned for updates from the awards ceremony!
