This high profile project involved a
complete strip out and refurbish-
ment of the pool changing areas.
This included the construction of
new disabled facilities and the in-
troduction of a “no shoe zone’
and mirrored vanity area. To
achieve a clean and modern feel
we created tiled feature walls and
added new mood lighting
throughout. New non-slip flooring
and cubicles have also been
added to create a multi-user
friendly ‘changing village’. MD Ray Spooner hands back the pool to the Mayor of Cambridge

Three Generations Of Building The project was very Challenging with its tight
budget and short Programme. We worked
throughout the Christmas period and finished the
project in just nine weeks. This was achieved by
working fourteen hour days and providing a de-
tailed pre-start Programme. The key to success
was our close
collaboration with Cambridge city council, ensur-
ing that all potential problems were identified In
advance. During this short time we have formed
an excellent relationship and look forward to
working with them in the future.
Ian Ross - Recreation Services Manager for Cambridge City Council said:
“Carmelcrest have been a pleasure to work with. This was a major project in a flagship
facility for the Council and Carmelcrest demonstrated the flexibility and commitment
needed to ensure the project was successfully completed within a tight time line and was
delivered on budget. We are very pleased with the quality of the fixtures and fittings
throughout and the overall look of the completed facilities. We look forward to working
with them in the future"
