School refurbishment in Netherhall Gardens

The Eden team was enlisted by South Hampstead school in London to complete a full exterior refurbishment. There was also some internal refurbishment of classrooms and the cleaning of all windows once repairs and redecoration had been completed.

Project cost: £200,000

Project duration: 9 weeks

The project had to be completed over the school holidays before the pupils returned. The project was delivered on time and on budget. The complete roof strip and redecoration returned the school to its original condition once more, complimenting its location.

Having previously worked for GDST at Sutton High School this was another successful project that Eden completed on-time and on budget.

The school fit out project included:

  • Entirely stripping off the roof area.
  • The addition of a new clay tile roof covering and a small amount of felt roofing being renewed as well.
  • Roofing repairs to a number of dormers.
  • Some minor cladding repairs and repairs to guttering. 
  • New full classroom width UPVc window to the Music Room.
  • Brickwork repointing and stone work repairs across the front and back of the building.
