ROUNDHOUSE TRUST, CAMDEN, LONDON

OVERVIEW

Pure Design – Bolidtop 525

Colour – S 7500-N with textureless anti-slip

1300m²

Installation dates - July 2021 (10 days)

 

Museums and performing arts venues are subject to intensive use by millions of shuffling feet, day in day out as well as heavy loads from equipment and installations. Stratum were chosen to prepare and resurface 1300m2 of the existing floor to the iconic main space of the Roundhouse, in Camden, which had endured 15 years of heavy use. The building is a heritage site, originally built as a steam engine shed, therefore our flooring needed to meet the functional requirements for the users but also sensitively fit in with the history of the space and its aesthetics. The surface needed to be hardwearing allowing for large scale builds for various productions, involving plant use, installation of temporary structures, staging etc. We sanded back the entire floor, repaired the damage and installed Bolidtop 525 over the top with textureless anti-slip coating.

 

Challenge

-      Working within an extremely busy venue with a tight time scale and no room for error.

-      Being a heritage site we would need to be mindful of the original structure of the building

-      Large footprint spanning across the main space of the venue.

-      No dust creation allowed due to sensitive electrical equipment.

 

Solution

-      We agreed a slot and timescale to carry out all of the works in 10 days. We programmed out the works for the customer and provided them with daily updates.

-      We used the highest grade dust extraction equipment. We ensured that labour and materials were all available in a timely manner.

Benefits/Installation

-      The customer was able to select the same smooth, matt appearance they had before but with a different colour choice and the addition of our new tried and tested textureless anti-slip coating.


Result

-      After 15 years of heavy use this magnificent heritage site has a seamless, durable and safe floor reinstated to provide the functional qualities required for many years of intense footfall and wear the performing arts industry creates. The floor sympathetically compliments the building with a simple, matt finish.

 

"We used Stratum to floor the corridors and they did a great job. We chose them for the main space after James’ thorough prep before we committed to the job. The onsite team were a pleasure and worked tirelessly to resurface the floor in the allocated time. We’re over the moon with the result. It’s never looked better”.
