Intercontinental Hotel, Park Lane London

HLM, the architectural practice had a very high-end, designer lead project at Park Lane London, which required bespoke components mixed together with standard products forming a warrantied bathroom solution for the client.

15 types of different bespoke XPS shower trays were created for this project and used across the 460 rooms spread over 3 phases.

240 bespoke XPS niches were installed and in 210 cases substructure sets were used to reach the required 100mm installation height thus allow for a straightforward replacement of old baths with showers without having to modify the existing pipework.

In all bathrooms, wedi XPS building boards were used in 12.5mm thickness for walls and 10mm thickness for floors.

RESULT: Thanks to the sub-contractor Milk Leisure, an Approved Partner of a leading manufacturer of XPS shower/bathroom systems, the client received a 100% waterproof bathroom with a 15 year manufacturer’s warranty on the whole installation.
