Example project:
St. Thomas the apostle church, Hanwell, London
“This is Edward Maufe’s finest church”, a comment by Elain Harwood in her listing report to English Hertitage.
A recent major refurbishment to this grade 11* listed building included the removal of asbestos from the Chancel, Nave and Sedilia followed by the installation of an asbestos replacement maintaining the flowing lines of the magnificent arches.
After research by acoustic consultants Peninsular Acoustics an acoustic decorative coating of SonaSpray fc in off white was proposed at 25mm thick as the asbestos replacement. The proposal was studied and approved by English Heritage.
Following the works Acoustic tests carried out by Peninsular Acoustics showed the required acoustic conditions had been achieved.
Results: An attractive non-hazardous asbestos replacement with superb building acoustics properties.
