Davies Partnership were appointed to provide the full MEP design services for the scheme which comprised the supply, delivery, installation, and testing and commissioning of the complete mechanical and electrical installations. This included hot and cold water services, LPHW heating, heat pump installation, general lighting installations, security alarm, and access control equipment.

The school was awarded ‘Best New Build in Wrexham’ by the Wrexham Civic Society at an awards ceremony shortly after completion.

The new build project was constructed during the same time the new infant school was on site and was a full design appointment.

WHAT THEY SAID

TACP architects have worked with Davies Partnership over a number of years and more recently on the new Agile Working Hubs for Coleg Cambria at Wrexham and Deeside. These schemes required close collaboration between the design team to ensure both projects were delivered successfully, and Davies Partnership were instrumental in this process. Where possible we would continue to recommend Davies Partnership to any prospective clients.

David Morris Director, TACP Architects

We worked with Davies Partnership on the Hafod Y Wern new primary school project in Wrexham. This was procured by Wrexham County Borough Council as a D&B scheme and throughout the design process and works on site we had an excellent working relationship with the M&E engineers working on the project. The design was a great collaborative experience, and we would be happy to work with them again. We have no hesitation in recommending Davies Partnership.
