Objective
Stamshaw Junior School – located in Portsmouth – was in need of some re-conditioning work to bring it back to standard. Mountjoy was appointed in 2019 to carry this out over a tight summer programme, allowing pupils to return to the refreshed building in the autumn term.
Solution
Work carried out at the school included the following:
- Replacement roof coverings and associated works to four buildings
- Creation of a full height internal room
- Replacement paving to the external areas
- Replacement perimeter fencing
- Fire service upgrades
- Creation of a soft play area
- Retaining sleeper wall replacement
- Provision of and replacement fire doors
- Creation of two number new external doorways
- Structural concrete floor repairs
- Replacement of the asbestos window boards
- External rain water drainage improvements
- Recommissioning of ventilation equipment
- Boiler and heating system replacement
- Full redecoration to some classrooms
We later returned to the school during the autumn term to assist a group of students from the University of Chichester in creating a pond for the pupils to monitor local wildlife.
