Keeping your school building smart

Attention all headteachers, facilities managers or anyone who is in charge of a building in the education sector. The summer holidays are not long away and it’s the perfect time to refurbish your building’s exterior. With staff and pupils off site all areas of the school building can be accessed easily and without disruption to timetables and learning.

Cladding Coatings can help you transform your building’s exterior into a stunning facade, ready and inviting for the new school year in September.

Whether it be the roofs, walls or just some general maintenance and a colour refresh a wide variety of services are available to you from our experienced team.

Onsite survey

If you are unsure of exactly what is required initially a free on site survey would take place where the whole building would be assessed. This would include the roof for cracks, dents, holes, corroding metals or peeling paints. Also the windows, doors and frames. If there are difficult areas to access a drone survey can be carried out too. Then we present our recommendations, costs and timescales and answer any queries or concerns you may have.

Budgets

We understand the industry and that budgets can be tight, therefore we are transparent with all required costs and quotations are itemised with recommended work. It is also important to note that we offer a minimum 10-year guarantee on all roof and wall coating work, which ensures you that the quality of the work we carry out on any of your buildings will last for a minimum of 10 years, giving you peace of mind for years to come and keeping future costs to a minimum.

School branding

Perhaps you would like your building to represent the school colours? This looks really effective and if you are not sure what to expect a colour matching service is offered and digital mockups created to visualise how it will appear. Your school logo is important to you, the pupils, staff and governors. The colours and themes can be picked out and replicated for familiarity around the building.

Education settings

The areas of education are not limited. Cladding Coatings can work on buildings of all designs, shapes and sizes. Whether it be nurseries, primary schools, secondary schools, colleges or universities they all fall under our remit and we can carry out small repairs or full renovation projects. Please see some examples of education settings we have had the pleasure of working on in recent times.

West Park Teaching Hub, Loughborough University – see case study

Transforming the deteriorating paintwork at this university campus has transformed this learning facility into a stylish and inviting place to study.

Drone Survey – The Fleets, Barnsley College – see case study

The roof of this college required cut edge corrosion treatment. Our expert team was able to carry out the repair work and leave the roof with an extended life span.

Colour-matching at The Hive, Wirral Youth Zone, Birkenhead – see case study

This project for a community charity required flexible working to carry out the refurbishment whilst the building was still occupied and being used by youths. We were able to work around their requirements and deliver an amazing finish.

Elliott Hudson College, Leeds, West Yorkshire – see case study

The newly acquired building for Elliott Hudson College was refurbished to match their neighbouring premises. The external facade required renovation, cleaning, preparation and spray painting.

Dukeries Academy, Nottinghamshire – see case study

The existing College had buildings that did not match and were in need of re-coating. We helped with rebranding and re-coating in line with the Academy Transformation Trust.

Of course if you have an urgent repair or a specific project that doesn’t quite align with school holidays that is absolutely fine. We are experienced at working round the most complex working environments with minimal disruption and naturally following all health and safety procedures.
