WHAT WE DID
-
We phased our scaffolding program elevation by elevation in order to reduce disruption to the residents and ultimately the time that scaffolding would be up outside their windows.
-
We liaised carefully with the ground floor shop owners, designed and manufactured temporary signage with their logos on, and installed them on to the scaffold hoarding. We also increased the lighting and signage at scaffold level to ensure that passers-by knew the shops were still open.
-
We carried out a full clean of the brick and stonework using the DOFF system by Stonehealth, and undertook careful and considerate repointing of the building’s brickwork as well as stone restoration and repair works to the buildings numerous details and finials.
-
We carried out extensive carpentry repairs to the sash windows and restored defective sash cords and weights.
-
We managed the residents expectations by advising them early on when their windows were being repainted giving them clear advice on aftercare, and keeping them up to date on progress with monthly newsletters.
