Works to this historic castle involved structural support to the main library ceiling and the conference room floor. The works involved lifting the existing floor coverings to assess the condition of the floor beams that had been there for many years and to assess what steel support work would be required.

It was necessary to ascertain the amount of steel supports required and where they were to be located. Once this had been done, installation and fixing took place. It was essential to ensure that there was no damage or disturbance to the library ceiling underneath. Services were located and the flooring was made good to the conferencing area.
