In August 2019 Toner Avenue Primary School, a modern and innovative new build constructed by Kier Group, was handed over to the school community in Hebburn, South Tyneside.

The new school, designed to accommodate the educational needs of 460 pupils, features a two-storey teaching block, a hall, playing fields, hard play areas, a multi-use games area and a secure garden for younger children.

Brief

Kier awarded Cklip the contract to provide an extensive range of cleaning services on the completion of the development to ensure the school facilities were not only impeccably clean but also had the highest standards of hygiene in place for the incoming community.

After assessing the scope of work and the size of the project, Cklip’s project manager allocated a dedicated team consisting of one cleaning manager, one supervisor and four skilled cleaning operatives, to optimise efficiency and productivity while delivering exceptional standards of cleanliness throughout the school premises.

Implementation: Works Carried Out

While all Builders’ and Sparkle Cleans require the same outcome, the process is never completely formulaic as every cleaning specification is bespoke, and the team responds appropriately to the individual challenges and requirements of each construction project.

In this case the school kitchen received special attention with all appliances, equipment, walls and floors meticulously cleaned to ensure a hygienic and spotless environment. The Sparkle phase also included cleaning brand new school furniture, such as desks, storage units, cabinets and shelving. 

Prior to the final handover, the exterior tarmac was expertly jet washed, effectively removing dirt and grime that had accumulated during the construction process. In addition, all external glazing was cleaned with the Reach & Wash system ensuring a polished and pristine finish.

Review: Hand Over

The thoroughness and attention to detail displayed by the Cklip team left a lasting impression on Kier. They were particularly impressed with the efficiency and effectiveness of our team management, ensuring that all tasks were completed in a timely manner without compromising on quality.
