OVERVIEW:

The need for a suitable site for new Wigan public library was accommodated by land available within the footprint of the Dean Trust school. However, there was a keen desire to ensure the appearance of the building was in keeping with the immediate surroundings and existing school building. Springfield were able to offer a wide choice of external finishes and the Trust selected a merlin grey and cedarwood finish which proved perfect for the job. Extras such as disabled access, automatic doors and energy-efficient lighting were also accommodated as part of our passion for delivering buildings not only fit for purpose but built exactly to client needs.

CLIENTS & COMMENTS:

“From the first point of contact to the day the project was finished (ahead of schedule!) Springfield have been delightful to deal with.  They were the ultimate professionals at all times who communicated with us at every step of the project offering valuable advice and support. Nothing was too much trouble for them.  Not only were they the most competitive supplier who tendered, the quality of our new modular building far exceeded our expectations and it blends beautifully with our school.  We would not hesitate to recommend them.”
