The newer parts of the school also had some refurbishments in the way of new powder coated highly energy efficient aluminium windows and doors, with 2 sets of doors being powered opening entrance doors, this involved us as main contractors having to communicate and plan with sub-contractors to again facilitate the efficient and timely installation with strict completion dates.
The school now has brand new double glazed, draught proofed windows and doors that will enable energy bills to be reduced significantly with a more comfortable learning environment.

Kirkby la Thorpe School – Replacement Windows and Doors
Being the successful Tenderers for this project was a real delight as the school is so local. We were able to showcase our bespoke joinery manufacturing skills and also our main contracting skills all in one for this project.
Firstly the original part of the building dates back to the 1800’s which meant that care, sensitivity and re-producing a like for like replacement of the original timber windows was an absolute must. Very detailed and accurate measurements were taken at surveying stage in order to precisely imitate the existing sections of the windows.
We could then manufacture the windows in our bespoke joinery workshop (Legado Joinery). Once on site we had to plan very carefully with the schools management team in order to ensure safe working areas, a detailed programme and schedule in order to complete the works within strict time frames.
