Ideal Group became heavily involved in the 2007 floods, working flat-out on rapid drying programmes in Tewkesbury, Gloucester, Sheffield, Hull and elsewhere, a task made possible by our investment in advanced drying technology. Projects included the recovery of major retailers at the Meadowhall Shopping Centre (where the river had diverted through the shopping centre) and the rapid drying of fifteen buildings at the Sydney Smith School in Kingston-Upon-Hull in time for the end of the summer holidays.
Ideal Group take the lead in the adoption of new rapid-drying technology as it is introduced to the UK, successfully deploying the equipment on projects in Carlisle, where over 3, 000 domestic and commercial properties had been affected by floods.
