Building works at educational establishments often present special challenges because it is usually essential to carry them out during the establishment’s holiday periods and within a demanding timescale, without, of course, compromising the quality of the end product. Over a number of years, Carter Construction have worked on a variety of projects for a number of individual colleges within Oxford University as well as for independent and state schools in Oxfordshire. We have also worked directly for the University Surveyor’s Office.

College Project A

Now a conference centre and administration HQ for a new science park development, this Grade II listed farmhouse required complete refurbishment including all-new mechanical and electrical services. An extensive steel framework was installed to support the upper floors. On the ground floor, the original flagstones were taken up then re-laid on a new concrete ground bearing slab.


College Project B

When the bursary was re-located within this college, use of tutorial and seminar rooms continued above the site of the extensive refurbishment works. The rooms were up-graded to comply with current fire regulations and re-wired with new data and telecom provision. In the basement refurbishment included tanking.
