Extensive Façade repairs to the Historic Britannia Pavilion
Fully aware of our capabilities, JLL appointed us to repair this River facing façade that has had centuries of Rain and Salt Water driven against it, this has resulted in severe damage to the brickwork and mortar, in turn, causing critical erosion.
Overall cost: £218,000
Location: Liverpool
What we did
This Project, although possibly perceived by those not in ‘the know’, as a departure for Jennor UK and the traditional & Fit Out works we’re famed for. We have been undertaking a wide range of projects for at least the last five years…, from £1 Million pound school extensions to the supply and install of Modular Buildings across the construction industry … we’ve seen, and most probably done it all as well!
For this project we erected bespoke scaffold to gain access to the tie rod ends embedded in brickwork. We cleaned corrosion for the tie bar plates, replaced defective brickwork with reclaimed materials to match the existing and re-pointed more than 50% of the façade. We also redecorated of cast iron goods with Tikkurilla paint system and restored defective arched brickwork and cills.
The Result
We worked in a multidisciplinary team including the Building Consultancy Team (JLL), Estates FM Team (CBRE), Structural Engineers (Marston and Grundy), Principal Designer (Northern Safety Solutions), Planning and Specialist Historical Restoration Team (Quadriga).
We successfully Project Managed these complex works, in a busy public area ensuring public and operative safety was effectively managed throughout the works.
