A Trusted Partnership with South Somerset District Council

In a testament to our local expertise and commitment to public infrastructure, ASRS recently completed a vital restoration project at Crewkerne Library. This endeavour, commissioned by South Somerset District Council, showcased our ability to tackle complex structural challenges while preserving essential community services.

Situated in the heart of Somerset, Crewkerne Library stands as a cornerstone of local learning and community engagement. When signs of structural wear became apparent, the council recognised the need for swift and skilled intervention. As a trusted local business with a proven track record in masonry restoration, ASRS was the natural choice to breathe new life into this important public space.

 

The Challenge:

Crewkerne Library was experiencing substantial stone deterioration, including cracking and spalling that threatened its structural stability and visual appeal. As a vital community resource, it was essential to address these issues without disrupting library operations.

Structural Repair Solutions

Our Approach

ASRS developed a tailored solution that ensured the library’s longevity and functionality:

  1. Precision Restoration: We carefully removed cracked and loose stonework, treating exposed steel with a zinc-rich coating to prevent future corrosion.
  2. Aesthetic Preservation: Using specialised stone repair mortar, we reformed window heads to match the existing appearance as closely as possible.
  3. Efficient Execution: Our team worked diligently across all elevations, completing the project within the agreed timeline while ensuring the library remained fully operational throughout the restoration process.

Results and Achievements

  • Successfully restored the library’s structural stability and aesthetics across all four elevations.
  • Completed extensive repairs without compromising daily operations, allowing the community to continue enjoying library services.
  • Strengthened our partnership with South Somerset District Council as a trusted collaborator for public sector projects.
  • Demonstrated our expertise in effective masonry restoration techniques.

This project highlights ASRS’s dedication to enhancing public infrastructure. By restoring Crewkerne Library, we have ensured that this essential community resource continues to serve and inspire residents for years to come.
