Our Strengths

HERITAGE SKILLS  
Mansell’s heritage skills are a distinct asset to independent schools which are often housed in treasured, historic buildings.     

With our specialist knowledge and experience we can help bring solutions to restoration, preservation and maintenance issues to ensure buildings can be enjoyed for generations to come while minimising running costs.  

We are also expert at integrating new technology and services, such as fire prevention, security or multi-media systems, in a discreet and effective way. 

When it comes to structural additions or extensions, Mansell is adept at blending the old with the new and even has its own joinery business who can replicate unique original features such as windows and doors.  

Sustainability is high on everyone’s agenda and we’re pleased to offer an expertise in incorporating environmentally friendly and energy efficient features and technologies.

DISCREET APPROACH  
Mansell adopts a highly discreet and sensitive approach when working in school environments where children and young people are present.  

Strict segregation is put in place between our worksites and areas where children are learning, playing or living.  Traffic movements and deliveries are also carefully controlled and scheduled to the most appropriate time of day.  

When we’re working in the proximity of living accommodation, we erect special screening to ensure privacy.  

At all times we liaise closely with the school staff to ensure that they and the pupils they are responsible for feel comfortable and secure.
