Hollingwood Primary School

Introduction:

RWB Building Solutions were appointed to undertake the removal and replacement of over 600 m2 existing suspended ceiling grid and tiles within a live school environment. The works were scheduled to be delivered during the February half-term period to minimise disruption.

The project involved the safe removal of the existing ceiling system and installation of a new compliant suspended ceiling grid and tile system across multiple classrooms and circulation areas, ensuring the facility was fully operational for the new academic term.



Scope of Works:

RWB building solutions delivered a full package of works;

  • Removal and disposal of existing ceiling grid and tiles
  • Inspection of existing services within ceiling void
  • Installation of new suspended ceiling grid system
  • Supply and installation of new ceiling tiles
  • Making good to disturbed areas
  • Final clean and handover ready for occupation

All works were delivered in accordance with current building regulations and education sector compliance standards.


The Results


The ceiling replacement was completed within the allocated holiday period, allowing the school to reopen on schedule and fully prepared for the new academic year.

The new suspended ceiling system provides:

  • A clean, modern aesthetic
  • Improved acoustic performance
  • Enhanced fire compliance
  • Easy future access to services

The finished installation reflects high standards of workmanship, effective planning, and a proactive approach to programme management within a time-critical education environment.



It is always daunting working with a new contractor for the first time, but it quickly became clear that RWB Building Solutions Limited were more than capable of undertaking the build and joinery works at White Cross Vets, Pudsey. Throughout the project, Matt and the team consistently demonstrated professionalism, competence, and a proactive approach.

RWB offered practical solutions to a number of unforeseen issues, helping to keep the programme on track while ensuring the works were completed to a high standard. From regular progress meetings to the final walk-through, it was evident that the project had been delivered with exceptional quality and attention to detail.

RWB Building Solutions also went above and beyond the original scope, taking on additional works and providing valuable support whenever needed. Based on our experience at White Cross Vets, we are already considering where we can collaborate with RWB again. They have certainly earned their place as a trusted contractor."
