Top Marks for Bushboard Washrooms at Abbey Gate College!

Abbey Gate College, located in the picturesque outskirts of Chester, is an educational establishment whose traditional features are maintained through to the very roots of the values it strives to teach its students.

Abbey Gate prides itself on creating an atmosphere that encourages students learning and whilst maintaining the many external historical features dating back to 1490 Andrew Bache, the school’s Business Manager, was also keen to modernise the internal design.

Mr Bache entrusted the choice of product and installation to H. Cumberbirch & Sons, an experienced Bushboard Washrooms Preferred Installer. Naturally they suggested the tough and economic Profiles range, with its individual through fixed headrail, sturdy pedestal leg and robust continuous wall channelling it collectively delivers a resilient cubicle ideal for busy school environments.

The Profiles washroom range is versatile enough to be used as both a shower and toilet cubicle when specified in the water resistant and sturdy Solid Grade Laminate material, making it the perfect choice for Abbey Gate’s renovated Changing Facilities. Mike Broomwood, Contracts Manager of Cumberbirch said: “We use Bushboard Washrooms a lot, great company, great product; we have no need to look elsewhere."

The school’s sports hall was beginning to look worn and tired and they wanted to create a more spacious showering area with improved privacy. As well as a great cubicle range Bushboard Washrooms was able to offer a striking selection of colours, ideal for the stimulation of minds that the bursar was looking for.

Mr Bache is pleased with the overall appearance: “They’re fantastic, look really good and the PE staff are delighted with the end product and overall result."
