After 12 years in the maintenance industry, carrying out works for Commercial and Domestic clients, National Maintenance have launched into a new sector of Childcare and Education.
Indoor and Outdoor Transformations
Within the last year, we have enjoyed traveling the country to transform indoor and outdoor spaces for one of our national nursery clients following their individual refurbishment specifications.
Before this transformation, this was an outdated large concrete space where the children would play on the bikes and cars provided. After using the Astro and Soft por we managed to transform this space into a cool, modern road for the children to embrace the role play. We even added a speed bump and zebra crossing for extra effect! Our operatives were so proud of the outcome, they had to be the first to test this new road out. It goes without saying how excited the children were when they were able to drive on a purpose made road.
Recent Ventures – Catering for Children’s Independents
As a recent venture, we have invested our time in making these bespoke nappy change units. After getting to know the industry better we decided these units would benefit toddlers in order for them to exercise their independence being able to walk up the stairs themselves. Not only has this been a big hit with our currency clients, but also externally through advertisement across social platforms.
These high-low sinks are another example of how we have taken into consideration children’s heights, ages and abilities to express their independence. Within our company valves we pride ourselves in giving opportunities to young people who want to get into the trade, whether that be that through an apprenticeship schule or a local authorities programme. Building these high-low sinks would be one of the jobs we would allocate to such parties, in order for them to follow instructions and learn how to use basic hand tools, of course with the supervision of our trained operatives!

As part of our employment process, every success candidate will watch our induction video: https://youtu.be/r8IjZILKWuo
This video not only goes through the daily requirements of individual roles along with necessary paperwork but also covers our five core valves:
Communication
Pride
Team works
Do more please more
Continuous improvement
We also had the students of a local drama school play the lead role as we thought it would keep people’s attention for longer. And of course, have a little giggle along the way.
Along with our new launch of the new sector, came a new upgraded version of our logo.
As a little Christmas gift for the children that attend the nurseries, we currently carry out works for, we decided to have a teddy bear made to include our new logo that appears on the back of the High-Vis. The children were so thrilled as they love to look out the window of when our vans arrive at site, and ask staff lots of questions regarding tools and fixing things.
