The summer for Ash is one of the busiest times of the year. Primarily, Ash focused on projects within the education sector; from fast track school holiday projects to others that will see us well into the autumn months. Here is a taste of a few.
University of Kent
Client: University of Kent
Duration: 9 weeks
Over the summer, Ash delivered a refurbishment project in the Ingram building for the University of Kent. Ash transformed existing computer rooms, store cupboards and offices into new science laboratories and preparation rooms for science students. Ash made sure to complete this job just in time for the new student arrival.
University of Surrey
Client: University of Surrey
Architect: Ridge & Partners LLP
Duration: 11 weeks
Ash returned to the University of Surrey for our 5th consecutive Summer. This year we carried out works to Surrey Court accommodation blocks. We completed 11 weeks of work compromising of the internal refurbishment of 4 floors of 6 accommodation blocks along with all associated mechanical and electrical works. Ash were also responsible for some minor external works such as replacing old timber doors with new powder-coated aluminium alternatives.
Charterhouse School
Client: Charterhouse School
Architect: Miller Bourne
Duration: 7 weeks
Ash took on a project for the Governing Body of Charterhouse School in Godalming, Surrey, at the beginning of July. This project consisted of refurbishment works to the existing Fletcherites Boards, involving internal alterations and refurbishment to the house as well as fitting new dormer windows on the second floor.
Guildford Museum
Client: Guildford Borough Council
Architect: Cooper & Withycombe
Duration: 13 weeks
At the end of July, Ash started a 13 week restoration project at Guildford Museum. Ash made repairs to the building fabric, improvements to M&E as well as some minor improvements and finishings across the Museum.
Stoke Newington
Client: St. Mary’s Church
Architect: Erect Architects
Duration: 34 weeks
Ash are very excited to be completing works on the Grade II Listed St. Mary’s Church in Stoke Newington. The church was built in the 1850’s with some 1990’s community rooms to the south of the Church. This project involves the demolition to parts of the 1990’s building and the creation of a new building in between the two original buildings. It will also see the construction of a new single-storey extension within the existing courtyard of the Church.
