The Brief

The project involved upgrading the maths and science building, including new science labs, an extension to the recreation centre, and additional staff facilities. A key component was the replacement of the main switchboard.

Working within a live school was the main challenge, requiring strict safety controls and limited access. High-impact works and shutdowns were carefully scheduled during school holidays, weekends, and out-of-hours to minimise disruption.

Our Approach

Well organised and forward-thinking, so we could get in and out on weekends and school holidays as required. The whole job was a renovation inside a live school, which meant careful sequencing, tight control of the works envelope, and consistent communication with the school facilities team.

The Results

The project was delivered on programme with minimal disruption to school operations. Careful planning allowed critical upgrades to be completed safely, resulting in modernised facilities and reliable infrastructure.

“Paramount Power were great to work with, reliable, professional, and consistent throughout the project. They maintained high quality while keeping everything on programme.”
