Project: Replacement of existing roof coverings and associated works.
Location: Dame Alice Owen's School,
Potters Bar, Hertfordshire
Client: Dame Alice Owen's School
Contract Period: 18 weeks
Value: £330,000
Brief:
Works include stripping existing coverings, infilling redundant roof lights and making good of structural decking. Reinstatement work includes provision of tapered insulation boards, high performance felt roof coverings, replacement roof lights, new above and below ground drainage. Replacement cladding to plant room. Internal works include adaptations to existing suspended ceilings, alterations to services to suit. Provisional of Brise Soleil and Trespa replacement panels to part of one elevation.
Key Issues:
A large part of the works had to take place while the school was fully occupied.
Deliveries had to be organised to arrive/leave at pre-determined times outside the busy arrival and departure times for staff and pupils.
We organised daily meetings between the site team and the school to monitor the works so the school could be kept operational at all times.
Outcome:
The School now has a fully guaranteed roof covering with permanent guardrails to the perimeter. The new roof lights have increased the amount of daylight to the rooms below.
