NHS Hospital Toilet Refurbishment
For this project we undertook a refurbishment of a toilet room in an NHS Hospital. The existing fittings and fixtures were to be removed and the the whole room renovated to modern standards. We removed the old toilets, sinks and striped back the flooring and stud walls prior to installation of new facilities and pipework. The room was finished with new clinical wall cladding and flooring.

- Damp issue due to building age 1800’s, as a resulted added damp-proofing measures were installed including DPM membrane to studwork, floor latex and walls.
- Obsolete electrical cabling (mineral)
- Lack of water and heating isolation points, therefore freezing of pipework and large areas of shutdowns had to occur before additional isolations could be put in as part of the works to minimise further shutdowns being required.
