Having priced the windows within the original scheme to numerous main contractors, the scope of which included the complete removal of the existing facade and replacement with lightweight steel framing with insulated cladding panels and insert windows, unfortunately due to the scope & technical nature of the proposed design the project was well over budget and subsequently the works put on hold.
With experience of undertaking similar full fenestration replacement projects Prima were in a position to be able to offer an alternative solution which offered a more cost effective solution whilst also achieving both the visual and specification requirements, working closely with both the school and the clients agents, Betteridge & Milsom, a revised budget and specification was prepared for the new grant application.
