What we install in Lincoln

Lincoln has a large share of listed and historic buildings, where lining and finishing means framing off walls that lean and floors that fall without touching the fabric more than the conservation officer allows. In practice most of what we are asked for in Lincoln is university buildings, with the rest of the package available alongside it.

Working in Lincoln

What drylining work do you do in Lincoln?

Across Lincoln (LN1) it is mostly university buildings, listed refurbishments, retail and healthcare, with partitions, SFS, wall linings, ceilings, fire stopping and plastering all covered by the same company. Lincoln has a large share of listed and historic buildings, where lining and finishing means framing off walls that lean and floors that fall without touching the fabric more than the conservation officer allows. Every package is priced off the drawings and the programme, free of charge.

Do you charge extra to work in Lincoln?

No. Lincoln is around 36 miles out, which is a normal run for us. Travel is priced into the package rather than added on top, and on a multi week scheme the team is on site for the duration.

Have you worked in Lincoln before?

Lincoln is an hour east, with the university estate on the Brayford and the cathedral quarter's listed stock giving the teams two very different kinds of building to line and finish. If your scheme is near University of Lincoln, send the drawings across and we will tell you what the building type usually means for the drylining package before anyone prices it.

Does the type of building in Lincoln change how the package runs?

Yes. Listed and historic buildings in Lincoln need independent linings and ceilings that touch the fabric as little as possible, and sometimes a conversation with the conservation officer before the frame goes up. We have done enough of it to know which systems suit an old building.

Can you do the fire stopping in Lincoln as well as the drylining?

Yes. The passive fire work is carried out by RWS Contracts Ltd, the group's IFC certificated fire division, which shares the same office and management team. On schemes in Lincoln the rated walls, the ceilings and the fire stopping through them can be let as one package with one point of responsibility.

How quickly could you start a job in Lincoln?

Lincoln is about 36 miles from the Rotherham yard, so a site visit is normally arranged within a week or two. Starting the works depends on the current contracts, and we would rather give you a real date against your programme than an optimistic one.
