Lancing College: Expert Cleaning Transforms Campus Safety
Lancing College is an independent boarding and day school for boys and girls aged 13-18, originally founded in 1848.
The college possesses some of the most striking buildings of any school in the country. The school buildings and boarding houses are positioned around two main quadrangles and the landmark chapel building.
The college is divided up into nine houses, each house resident to between 30 and 80 pupils. As well as the historic halls and teaching rooms, new facilities include an art school with large studios, a contemporary sports centre with a sports hall, a swimming pool, fitness suite and dance studio/fencing salle.
The project
We have been carrying out window cleaning to the exterior of the college buildings for 5 years.
It is important to the college that the window cleaning is completed within the allocated times, with minimal disruption, respecting the historic fabric of the building.
In 2014, we were asked to tender for the interior window cleaning.
