At Ashley Junior School, we recently completed a full flooring upgrade across multiple classrooms to improve safety, comfort, and durability throughout the learning environment. The existing flooring had become worn and difficult to maintain, and the school required a low-maintenance solution that could be installed within a tight timescale during the summer holidays. Our team managed the entire process, from moving classroom furniture through to repairing the subfloors and installing new flooring, ensuring all rooms were fully ready before staff returned for the new academic year.

During the initial consultation, the school explained that improving safety and cleanliness was a key priority. The old flooring no longer provided a suitable surface for pupils and was challenging to keep clean. In addition, several areas of the subfloor showed noticeable dips and uneven patches, which needed to be corrected to prevent future issues and ensure a professional finish. It was also essential that the work caused minimal disruption, with all classrooms reinstated on time and ready for use at the start of term.

To plan the project effectively, our team carried out a detailed site survey of all classrooms. This allowed us to assess the condition of each subfloor, identify areas requiring repair, and plan how the work could be completed efficiently and with minimal disruption. Before installation began, all classroom furniture was carefully moved and stored, providing safe and unrestricted access to the full floor areas.

The existing flooring was then removed, and the subfloors were thoroughly inspected. Damaged and loose areas were repaired before latex levelling compound was applied to smooth uneven surfaces and create a uniform base. The subfloors were then primed to ensure strong adhesion and long-term durability. Proper subfloor preparation is particularly important in school environments, where flooring must withstand heavy daily footfall and continuous use.

Once preparation was complete, we installed a high-performance carpet tile system specifically designed for education and commercial settings. This flooring was selected for its durability, ease of maintenance, improved comfort underfoot, and its ability to reduce noise levels within classrooms. After installation, all furniture was returned to its original layout, leaving each classroom clean, tidy, and ready for teaching.

The completed works provided Ashley Junior School with a safer, cleaner learning environment supported by durable, low-maintenance flooring designed for daily use. The classrooms now benefit from a modern, professional appearance, improved comfort and acoustics, and a long-lasting finish. All work was completed on time, ensuring the school was fully prepared for the new term. With refreshed flooring throughout, the school now has a positive and productive environment that supports both pupils and staff.
