Hardie panels, produced by James Hardie, are high-performance, A2 fire-rated façade cladding that are both affordable and stylish. They are available in a smooth texture and a variety of colours. These panels are formulated to provide a long-lasting, low maintenance, and consistent finish for years to come. They are non-combustible and come with a 15-year warranty covering paint, protecting against peeling, cracking, and chipping1. Hardie panels can be used as a direct replacement for existing cladding on a range of buildings.

Project Description

Overview

This project involved the supply and installation of Hardie panels and studwork at the Stanground Fire Station. The scope of the project included the removal of glass panels and their frames, insulation of the interior studwork, and boarding with MDF.

Hardie Panels Installation

The exterior of the fire station was refurbished using Hardie panels. These panels are known for their durability and aesthetic appeal, making them an excellent choice for this project. The installation process was carried out meticulously, ensuring a seamless fit and finish.

Studwork Installation and Insulation

The interior studwork was insulated to improve the energy efficiency of the building. Following the insulation, the studwork was boarded over with MDF. The MDF was then primed and glossed, providing a clean and polished look to the interior.

Glass Panels and Frames Removal

As part of the refurbishment, the existing glass panels and their frames were carefully removed. This process was carried out with utmost care to prevent any damage to the surrounding structure.

Conclusion

The project was successfully completed, significantly enhancing the appearance and functionality of the Stanground Fire Station. The use of Hardie panels for the exterior and the insulation and boarding of the interior studwork have greatly improved the building’s overall energy efficiency and aesthetic appeal. The careful removal of the glass panels and frames was also a critical part of the project, ensuring a smooth transition to the new exterior.

This project is a testament to our commitment to quality workmanship and attention to detail. We are proud of the results and look forward to future projects of similar nature.
