East Berkshire Golf Club

OVERVIEW

East Berkshire Golf Club has been in the Palmer family since its founding in 1903. The club faced closure in 1909 but was saved by one of its founding members, W. Howard Palmer. He purchased the estate from the original members, secured the club's future, and became its first president. The club features an 18-hole, tree-lined parkland course, attracting 875 members annually, along with approximately 8500 additional guests and participants per year in the club’s open meets.

The golf club aimed to modernise and update their clubhouse while maintaining a traditional design that reflects the club’s heritage. In 2020, Nick Smith, Facilities Project Manager & Former President at East Berkshire Golf Club, contacted Bushboard Washrooms to begin upgrading the men’s changing room toilet area. The club sought a solution that was both aesthetically pleasing for their loyal members and durable enough to handle the daily footfall.

After thorough consideration, the golf club selected Definition toilet cubicles, which offer a luxurious finish with 35mm panel thickness and rebated doors for a flush fronted design. Wenge laminate and Stainless Steel fittings delivered a sophisticated look, with the wood grain laminate finish also used for both the urinal and WC duct panels, supplied as Ready Plumbed Modules. This meant sanitaryware and brassware arrived on site pre-plumbed and pre-assembled to a rigid steel frame, significantly reducing installation time and minimising disruption.

Bushboard’s own brand sanitaryware, SanCeram, was also chosen for its cost-effectiveness and high quality. The counter top vanity unit was chosen in Wenge with a complementary Mid Grey colour. This durable design provides space for users to place their belongings, such as changing bags, whilst using the washroom facilities.

Following the successful completion of the men’s washroom upgrade, Nick contacted Bushboard Washrooms again in 2023 to begin work on the women’s changing room toilet area. This space mirrored the design in the men’s, but the Definition range was supplied as full height toilet cubicle doors to be used with partition walls to ensure total privacy in the washroom. There was also an oversized toilet cubicle supplied with a combination unit for ambulant disabled users.

High Pressure Laminate was used throughout the entire leisure washroom project for its water-resistant properties and durability, making it ideal for high-usage areas like changing room toilets. The redesigned facilities were created with members in mind, offering a functional and inviting space that they would want to return to year after year. These washrooms are built to withstand busy periods while maintaining a luxurious atmosphere.

Nick is extremely pleased with the finish of the washrooms and the service provided by Bushboard Washrooms. He reported an overwhelmingly positive response from current members, who feel the upgrades have significantly improved the changing room toilet facilities at East Berkshire Golf Club. Additionally, visitors from other golf clubs have inquired about Bushboard Washrooms for their own potential facility upgrades.

The partnership between East Berkshire Golf Club and Bushboard Washrooms has resulted in modern, durable, and aesthetically pleasing washroom facilities that honour the club’s heritage. This successful upgrade has enhanced the overall experience for members and guests, setting a new standard for club facilities.
