Drywall Machines took part in the works on 3 Old Mills which was a long-term project
and is a part of Manchester’s history dating back 200 years.

Apart from refurbishment works, a new building has been constructed to link all 4
buildings comprising the project, which now consists of 4 large apartment blocks with
a private yard, a detached house and a semi-detached house in the middle.

Drywall Machines joined the project at the middle stage and helped to deliver it
despite all difficulties it presented.

The project had an unprecedented number of complexities for all trades involved.
Just to name a few:
– We had to keep track of all changed drawings due to their multiple revisions.
– The dry-lining project pack had the largest ever number of details, specs and
types of ceilings and walls.
– We had to make sure we complied with the British Standards and maintain
fire protection and soundproofing. It was achieved with the help of British
Gypsum engineers.

Despite the very complex nature of the project, we have managed to keep the
number of accidents very low. The few minor incidents that happened were fully
investigated to prevent further issues.

We would like to thank all the trades that were involved in this project, which can be
called the most complicated job Drywall Machines have ever taken part in.
