Major building award winning project makes the most of Layher Scaffolding
A highly prestigious Federation of Master Builders award, recently achieved by Derbyshire-based Alan Staley Building Contractors, has recognised the quality of its work and reflects, says the company, on the suitability of Layher scaffolding and temporary roofing systems for high profile building refurbishment.
The company is proud to have won the Master Builder of the Year Award for Large Renovation Projects in Yorkshire and Trent for its re-roofing and high level repair of Grade II listed Melbourne Hall. The organisation appointed Allround Scaffolding Services (Midlands) Ltd. who, in turn, made excellent use of Layher’s Allround® modular scaffolding and Keder temporary roofing system designs.
“We congratulate Alan Staley and his team for being recognised in this way and for achieving this prestigious accolade,” comments Sean Pike, Layher’s UK Managing Director. “Because nominations are made by satisfied clients, and the judgement is based on a builder’s technical capability and customer services skills, we believe the recognition pays testimony to success, both in the region and within the building industry.”
The use of the Layher equipment provided clear access, excellent weather protection and high quality appearance – all of which were key factors in the success of the refurbishment. “The project called for full working area access to be provided so the minimum number of components of the Layher system was important,” comments Alan Staley, Managing Director of Alan Staley Building Contractors. “Allround® scaffolding was built from ground level to support the mono-pitched Keder roof structure which then allowed natural light into the area while providing excellent weather protection.
“We are extremely proud of this achievement and wish to thank everybody involved in the project, particularly our staff on site and all equipment and system suppliers – of which Layher was a key element,” he concludes.
