What we did

The project involved specialist asbestos removals in order to demolish part of the existing single storey building and total refurbishment of the remainder.

Where the existing part of the building was demolished, the construction of a new Entrance Lobby & Entrance Hall together with new WC facilities took place. Specialist structural work was carried out to create two large openings with moveable partition walls which was undertaken to provide greater flexibility of internal spaces in the Prayer & Kiddush Halls.

Works included new external windows and automated sliding door-set, external canopy, roofing system, partition walls, ceiling finishes, floor finishes and decorations.

Full mechanical and electrical alterations were undertaken to service the new extension and upgrade the existing including power, lighting, emergency lighting, fire alarm, intruder alarm, heating & ventilation services and sanitaryware upgrades.

The existing adjacent two storey building remained fully operational during the entire duration of the work, whilst all services were maintained
