Wates Construction contacted us in October 2017 as they were tendering for the £7.8m development at Murray Park Community School in Mickleover, Derby. The project which was supported by SCAPE and funded by the ESFA, comprised of a brand-new building with a new reception area, 15 additional classrooms and office space.
When Wates first contacted us, they requested estimates for a number of Tarnhow timber canopies which are constructed from Glulam timber to provide shade and shelter around the new building. However, after being appointed the project by Derby City Council to carry out the works which were designed by Lungfish Architects, the canopies had been removed from the project to save on costs.
