Queenswood School

The original boilers for the main boarding house at Queenswood School were reaching the end of their life and starting to cost more to maintain than was cost effective. The Estates Bursar commissioned a project to renew the boarding house boilers with a new energy efficient design and whilst doing so, relocate the plant room housing them under the building to available space in the loft. Lamb & Partners were engaged as CDM Coordinator to this project and became involved during the design phase and through to completion. We are currently waiting on the contractor to deliver the O&M manuals and the Health & Safety file, so that we can complete our engagement.

The works were carried out during the summer holidays but the school and boarding house remained occupied by summer schools; therefore additional considerations had to be made for pupils in the building and outside, especially when removing redundant water tanks from the roof space and delivering the new boilers into place.
