CLIENT TESTIMONIAL

“The over-cladding scheme has not only provided a ‘new-look’ but transformed the gateway to Rochdale town centre. Needless to say, the College are very pleased the strategic decision to over-clad the campus has delivered the desired result and indeed surpassed our expectations. The result is primarily due to the huge team effort from the design team, contractor and College estates team, to make the scheme succeed. This project was delivered in-year, on time and budget, with minimum interruption to business continuity and it’s a credit to the flexibility and professionalism of d+b facades”.
