Project Description

Pacy & Wheatley have been lucky enough to be able to complete further upgrade works for Ash Grove Primary School. These works focused on transforming the external features of the infant building with the installation of new Rockpanel cladding, double-glazing window units, and aluminium fascia to replace the weather timber boards that were previously there.

The work is not just to improve the aesthetic qualities of the building but also to improve the thermal and acoustic qualities to benefit the children.

The Challenge

The project was to be completed in 10 weeks while the school remained operational; this meant we had to work around the children’s activities, keep noise down, and board up any areas we were working in to avoid any distractions from learning. Though it was a challenging setting, we worked closely with the staff to work around their plans and ensure disruption was kept to a minimum.

A big thank you to Mark Jinkinson and his team on this project.

    Nottingham University Hospitals, NHS Trust

    Pacy & Wheatley Interiors were contacted in regard to getting involved in an urgent project to completely strip out and refurbish the Southwell Ward at Nottingham City Hospital. The brief to this project was that once commenced, this project needed to be completed in 12 weeks, a very tall undertaking based on the amount of work involved. However, after several meetings, a programme was put together which involved a large portion of the works being carried out on both days and nights, 6 days a week, in order to give all involved the best chance of completing the works to a very challenging timescale. The works undertaken involved the full strip out of the existing ward, including substantial M&E works, new flooring to all the wards, new doors, new counters and Kitchen units were also installed on the Joinery element of the works. New lay in grid Ceilings were installed along with specified LED Lighting upgrades and the whole ward was fully Decorated throughout.

    This, in essence, was a monumental challenge for all involved, including the Architect, Consultants, the in-house NHS team, and, of course, the P&W site and Management team. The delivery of this project needed careful planning and completion of areas of the ward in a phased manner to ensure that all of the trades involved could access specific areas to complete their works. This was achieved for the most part due to thorough planning and due consideration given to all of the trades participating on the project.

    Pacy & Wheatley have now delivered a modern, state-of-the-art facility for both Hospital patients and staff, completed in record time. Thanks must go to all involved for their dedication and application in ensuring we got over the line and completed this project. Many Thanks to both Adam Cox ( Site Manager ) along with Steve Shaw ( Project Manager ) and Charlotte Wheatley ( Project QS ) for their outstanding effort in delivering this project which was delivered with zero accidents which in itself is a testament to the planning and execution of the works.
