Hospital Cladding Remediation Project | DMC Group UK

DMC Group successfully completed a critical cladding remediation project on a live hospital site, ensuring enhanced fire safety and compliance with current regulations. The project was executed with meticulous planning to minimize disruption to hospital operations and maintain patient and staff safety.

Hospital Cladding Replacement Project – DMC Group

This project involved the removal of unsafe cladding from a hospital building and the installation of new, fire-safe cladding. As part of the work, we also replaced all combustible fixings with non-combustible alternatives. These upgrades were essential to improving the overall fire safety of the building and ensuring full compliance with current safety standards. All materials and fixings used met the latest fire safety and building regulations.

Project Challenges and Solutions

A major challenge was that the hospital remained fully operational throughout the project. Patient care could not be disrupted, and we had to ensure that all hospital services remained accessible at all times. This required detailed planning and ongoing coordination with hospital management.

To keep disruption to a minimum, we implemented strict safety measures. Our team worked quietly, kept work areas tidy, and carefully managed dust and noise. Site access was controlled at all times to protect staff, patients, and visitors.

Results and Compliance

We completed the project on time and within the approved budget. All work followed the guidelines set by the Building Safety Fund and complied with current fire safety laws. Final checks confirmed that the building now meets the highest fire safety standards. The hospital is now a safer place for everyone who uses it.
