Overview
Sefton Council commissioned the refurbishment of heating and domestic services at Freshfield Primary School in Formby, Liverpool. The existing systems in both the infant and junior buildings were outdated, routed through asbestos-containing floor ducts, and no longer fit for purpose. The project was a significant investment to ensure safe, modern, and efficient building services that would continue to support staff and pupils in a healthy learning environment.
