Deconstruct UK case study for the healthcare sector.

Client: Ayerst Environmental LtdLocation: Private Hospital in Essex

Contractor: Deconstruct UK LtdCompletion Date: July 2011Sector: Healthcare Estates

About the Project:

To carry out a full decontamination of theboiler room at a Private Hospital.

Deconstruct were appointed to carry out a full decontamination of the main boiler house thatserved the entire hospital.

Asbestos had been removed from the boiler house previously, but works had been carried out to a very poor standard so residual contamination remained.

The Deconstruct team had to carefully clean around all plant, pipework and electrical switch gear to enable the hospitals engineers to work safely within the boilerhouse, without the risk of exposure to asbestos fibres.

Project Challenges:

The work area contained many pipes and cables that all had to be cleaned.

Careful separation and cleaning of the cables, a slow and labour intensive process was necessary. All walls and pipework were thoroughly cleaned using hand tools.

The boilerhouse was located directly beneath the administrative heart of the hospital. The work was co-ordinated and planned to use the single point of access directly onto the rear of the boilerhouse, thereby keeping our works well away from hospital staff and the public.

The works were carried out during a designated shut down period. This meant that works were completed within a strict timescale to enable subsequent maintenance work to be undertaken to enable the boiler house to be re-commissioned before the end of the summer break.
