Upgraded flooring for housing association, Onward Homes.
The commercial flooring team at John Lord recently completed a 1000m² flooring project at an independent living scheme for over-55s managed by housing association Onward Homes.
Project Background
The project, which involved covering the communal areas and corridors of their Royce Court Knutsford property, was part of a company-wide programme of upgrades to Onward’s sheltered accommodation.
Solution
990m² of vinyl flooring was installed by the John Lord team over a total of 20 site days.
Gerflor Taralay impression 1110 Rivau Nature was used for the entire project, chosen for its durability, aesthetic appeal, and suitability for different areas within the building. This choice provides safety under foot and excellent slip resistance while maintaining a luxurious look and feel.
David Downing, Scheme Manager for Onward Homes said “The final flooring looks great, and we’re really pleased with it. The John Lord team were great to work with, from initial site visits, preparation and installation, through to ensuring our residents felt safe and respected while the work was carried out. In fact, over the course of the project, we often heard positive comments from the residents about the installation team.”
“The installation team not only did a brilliant job with the flooring, but they also made a real connection with the residents – even those living with dementia. That level of care, kindness and respect didn’t go unnoticed.”
