Stoney Stanton Village Hall - Flooring

Descriptions

Floor structure and surface repairs & additional works There are key areas of the existing floor structure that have completely failed and need immediate repair so the existing floor covering to the damaged areas will need to be taken up and set aside ready for re-use. The joists will then need to be assessed to determine the condition of each timber and replaced or splice repaired where required, The floors are split into the 3 areas that are identified as hall1, 2 & 3 as well as a small lobby leading to the disabled WC. There are existing holes that have been made into the floors at different points to allow the access . Where sections of the sub floor come into contact with external walls, internal structural walls or supporting structures then these must be fitted with suitable vapour barriers / DPC membranes to ensure the longevity of the floor once repaired. As part of the repair works, all sections old and new under all floors must be treated with a suitable fungicidal treatment and suitable wood worm, wood louse and beetle treatment to prevent any potential attack of the floor structures when in place. Whilst the survey was carried out there were a number of identified air bricks that were either blocked off through building works, general build up of dusts and material or were undersized. Works to clear these air bricks or replace where needed including the increase in size of the identified units. The proposal should include the proposed equipment manufactured as well as any required preventative maintenance works that need to be carried out when in use. Where the lobby to the disabled toilet is located a suitable floor should be installed treated as identified above and finished with a non-slip, fully welded vinyl floor covering that is sealed to the exiting walls and skirting boards. At the break between halls 1 and 2 there are a pair of 10' high swing doors. The supporting post to the north wall has deteriorated and rotted requiring repair. The replacement of this supporting post, re hanging and levelling of the doors and leaving in a finished state, suitable to be gloss painted as requested as part of the same works.
