The Brief
Paul, from our team, visited the school to assess the damage and discuss the next steps. We consulted our technical representatives to put together a clear set of options. We priced a full floor replacement so the school had that figure to hand, but our assessment showed it was not necessary. The damage was contained to specific areas, so a targeted repair would restore the floor to full safety and performance at a fraction of the cost. Temple Carrig School approved the repair works.
The Work Carried Out
We began by taking up the damaged sections of flooring along with the existing undercarriage system, then cleaned out the recess thoroughly. To rebuild the subfloor, we installed the Junckers Blubat undercarriage system, matched precisely to the height of the original floor. This system provides the shock absorption and flexibility that a sports hall floor needs to perform safely under daily use.
On top of this, we installed Junckers SylvaSport Beech Club Silk Matt, a timber sports floor built for the demands of multi use sports halls. With the new sections in place, the difference between the new and existing timber was visible, so we sanded the entire floor back to bring it to a single, uniform finish.
Once sanding was complete, we applied fresh line marking for basketball and badminton and resealed the full floor. The result is a sports hall floor that looks brand new from edge to edge, with the durability to perform for decades to come.
One Contractor, Start to Finish
-
A repair like this often involves several different suppliers. One company to source the floor, another to install it, and a third to handle line marking. Temple Carrig School avoided that altogether. Our team managed the assessment, the technical specification, the supply of materials, installation, sanding, line marking and resealing as one project.
All work was carried out outside normal school hours, keeping disruption to lessons and after school sport to a minimum. It is the same approach we bring to every sports floors project, whether it is a school hall, a club or a county facility.
The Result
Temple Carrig School now has a sports hall floor that is structurally sound, visually uniform and ready for years of use across multiple sports. The repair gave them the performance of a new floor without the cost and downtime of a full replacement, delivered by a single contractor who managed every stage of the project.
We have worked on similar projects across the education and sports sector, including our Dublin City University sports flooring project, where the same focus on technical assessment and quality materials delivered a long term solution for a high use facility.
