Tarpoley C of E school was a primary school where we carried out the drylining, partition and suspended ceiling package for Paveaways Building Contractors. The development consisted of a construction of new build 2 storey building and a refurbishment of the existing school.
The new building was a timber frame building which formed 6 new classrooms, offices and toilets. In this area we carried out battening, boarding, insulating and skimming to the internal and external timber frame to a full British Gysum specification and then finished the rooms with an AMF Suspended ceilings. In this section of the project we had to carry out our works within the normal term time so we had to kept noise to a minimum and ensure material movement did not disrupt the usual school day.
The works to the existing school consisted of us carrying out a refurbishment of the existing Main Hall, Activity Studio and Library. In these rooms we installed new metal stud partitioning, made good existing walls and installed new AMF Suspended ceilings. In this section of the project we had to carry out the works when the school had broken up for the summer holidays which meant we had a tight programme to achieve completion prior to the start of the new term.
