Building maintenance for schools and colleges — built around the school year.
Schools and FE colleges have unique operational rhythms — term times, half-terms, summer holidays, safeguarding requirements. Our trades are inducted on working in education environments, and our project management is built around your school calendar.
What we deliver
Term time, half-term, and holidays.
- Reactive and planned maintenance — during term time
- Half-term and summer holiday programmes — major works in the windows when school is out
- Refurbishment — classrooms, halls, sports facilities
- Compliance work — fire safety, electrical, gas, water
- Disabled adaptations — for accessibility
- Heritage school estates — many older schools have heritage buildings
Why DLP
Why schools and colleges choose DLP.

Term-time aware

02
Safeguarding inducted
Our installers carry the right paperwork — DBS-checked where required — and are trained on appropriate behaviour and reporting.
03
Holiday programme discipline
We deliver to the date. School comes back on a Monday — the work has to be finished by then. We get it.
04
Multi-trade in-house
Fewer suppliers, faster mobilisation, less disruption.
