Pladis (United Biscuits) – Case Study

Posted on by Roy

Internal Painting to Pladis (United Biscuits)

Internal decoration to Training Room at Pladis Global R&D Site in Sands, High Wycombe.

Project Requirements

We were required to do some repairs and freshen up the Training Room.

Solution Implemented

Using a Zinsser specialist product to seal the water damaged areas we then applied ICI Dulux Durable Matt emulsion to the ceiling and walls and ICI Dulux Satinwood to the woodwork.  We also hung some vinyl wallcovering adding a red vinyl trim around the border as the client specified.

Challenges Overcome

As the Training room was in constant use we planned our work to be carried out in stages, this meant it was completed over a longer time span but with no interruption to the clients training commitments. 

Results

Another great job by our decorators. We have been working with this client for over 10+ years carrying out a wide range of building works, general refurbishment and landscaping work at both this site and their Hayes site.

 

We provide a full range of trades for any building refurbishment work www.abkltd.co.uk/more-than-painting/

Interior Decoration, Cookham Dean – Case Study

Posted on by Roy

Interior Decoration, Cookham Dean 

Internal decoration and to various rooms and items in this large property overlooking the River Thames.

Project Requirements

A re-decoration project where we provided a list of areas priced individually for the client to select which he required to be painted as the highest priority. In one of the areas, we advised that the shelving display unit could be painted to modernise it. 

Solution Implemented

The unit was originally white, we did a full preparation including a specialist gripper primer and the client was delighted with the dark grey modern look.

Challenges Overcome

As we were already working in several areas of the property and the project was going well we did not charge the client for this extra.

Results

The client was really pleased with the outcome. On this page, you will find some imagery relating to works completed on the project. For further information about this or any other project carried out by the ABK team please contact us directly via the office.

Christ the Servant King Church – Case Study

Posted on by Roy

Internal Decorations to CSK church

CSK: Christ the Servant King Church located in Booker, High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire.

Project Requirements

Internal decoration to various areas of the church in two phases.  We provided the client with a ‘shopping list’ (a quotation for each individual room/area).  The client then selected which areas to do within each phase working around the churches commitments. 

Solution Implemented

We carried out Phase 1 (6 areas) we were able to give a multi-room discount as these were all carried out at the same time. A good quality Durable Matt emulsion was used in all the areas as this can be wiped clean.  The woodwork was painted using Satinwood.

Challenges Overcome

We had a small window to get the work done due to services and hired room areas with bookings, our decorators took up the challenge and Phase 1 was completed on time and to our high standards.

Results

The client was really pleased with the painting and we have since completed Phase 2. On this page, you will find some imagery relating to works completed on the project. For further information about this or any other project carried out by the ABK team please contact us directly via the office.

Residential Property in Chalfont St Giles – Case Study

Posted on by Roy

Internal Decorations to a home in Chalfont St Giles

A lovely large farmhouse in Chalfont St Giles village within the Chiltern district of south-east Buckinghamshire.

Project Requirements

We re-painted and refurbished the kitchen units to a new colour in this lovely property using Farrow and Ball paint.

Solution Implemented

The decorators gave the units a deep clean before applying a Zinsser Bin gripper primer where necessary.  They then applied two coats of Farrow and Ball eggshell to all the units in the new colour design scheme.

Challenges Overcome

We labelled the areas with wet paint signage so that they were not touched by accident when wet. This was a straight forward job for us painting the units.

Results

A stunning result, we originally painted these units five years ago and the client asked us to return to re-paint the units to a new fashionable colour scheme. The client was extremely pleased with all the work.

Residential Property in Haddenham – Case Study

Posted on by Roy

Internal and External Decorations and Repair works

A lovely property Haddenham Village tucked away in the Aylesbury Vale district, Buckinghamshire.

Project Requirements

We re-plastered the ceiling in the hallway and painted ceiling, doors and frames and hung a designer wallpaper to the walls.  On the rear of the house, we carried out a roof repair, replaced guttering and replaced a door and frame to the garage then prepared and painted the masonry and woodwork. 

Solution Implemented

Our plasterer, removed old coving and re-plastered over the old ceiling to achieve a smooth finish. Our highly skilled decorators prepared the walls by hanging lining paper then they applied ICI Dulux Contract Matt and Vinyl Matt emulsions and Satinwood to the required areas.  Our highly skilled decorators, then hung the designer wallpaper chosen by the client.

Our guttering specialist, found a problem with a ridge tile on the roof, whilst we had access we replaced the tile to avoid any potential problem in the future.  Our carpenter replaced the door and frame to the garage whilst our decorators carried out some masonry render repairs before painting the masonry using ICI Dulux Weathershield Masonry paint in Gardenia.

  

Challenges Overcome

When we have high access on site we will always have a check around the roofing areas of the property and report back to the client any potential problems.  

Results

In the internal area of the property we were decorating there was a small downstairs toilet, the client asked if we were able to freshen this up, as we were working in this area we did this free of charge. The client was extremely pleased with all the work.

Harleyford Lodge Refurbishment Case Study

Posted on by BGDteam

Refurbishment of a Lodge on the Harleyford Estate, Marlow

A beautiful Scandinavian lodge/cabin set on the private Harleyford Estate in Marlow, Buckinghamshire.

Project Requirements

A full refurbishment of the lodge was required including painting and decorating, new carpets, new furniture required and installed and gates made for the decking area.

Solution Implemented

We used Johnstones durable matt which was colour matched to Ammonite a Farrow and Ball colour, we also used the same colour on the woodwork in Eggshell.  We used our carpenter to make new timber gates to match in with the rest of the decking area. Our flooring/carpeting expert recommended the best type of flooring throughout.  We also helped out with the style of furniture and furnishings.

Challenges Overcome

The client wanted to achieve a light, airy look to the lodge at all times of the day.  As the light fell in many different angles due to the shape and structure of the building this made some colours look completely different at certain times of the day.  To help the client chose this perfect paint colour, we provided test pots in the chosen colour but in various tones and painted several areas so the client could make their final choice.

Results

We were extremely pleased with the final result. On this page, you will find some imagery relating to works completed on the project.
