Located in Didsbury, Manchester, Nazarene College appointed MAP Building Contractors to deliver a rear extension to provide additional accommodation for the college’s food hall facilities.
 
The project involved the construction of a new extension to the rear of the existing college building, alongside internal remodelling and upgrade works to improve the functionality of the surrounding areas. The works were carried out within a live education environment, requiring careful planning, controlled site access and close coordination around the day-to-day operation of the college.
 
The construction works included foundation excavation, installation of an insulated concrete slab, blockwork, external brickwork and a timber cladding finish.
A green roof was also incorporated into the scheme, providing a considered and sustainable finish to the new extension.
MAP also carried out structural alterations to the existing building to accommodate the new layout and connection between the new and existing spaces. The internal works included electrical installation, plumbing installations, remodelling and installation of new toilets, decorations and final fit-out.
 
As the college remained operational throughout the project, particular consideration was given to site setup, deliveries, movement of materials and site traffic. Safe working areas were established and managed to ensure separation between the construction works and the live college environment.
 
This project demonstrates MAP Building Contractors’ ability to deliver construction and refurbishment works within sensitive live environments, particularly within the education sector where safety, planning, communication and quality of finish are essential.
