Community Hall Reopens With New Flooring

Community Hall Reopens With New Flooring

Teynham Parish Council have announced the re-opening of the Teynham Community Hall following the successful replacement of its flooring.

After four weeks of dedicated work by Gransdens Construction Ltd, the hall is now open for bookings and ready to welcome back community groups and events.

The Parish Council extends it's gratitude to the FCC Community Foundation for their generous grant, which made this essential renovation possible. The new flooring not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the hall but also ensures a safer environment for all users.

The renovation project was overseen by Councillors Clive Brodigan and Brian Sharman, both long-serving members of the Teynham Parish Council. Cllr Sharman told SFM News: "After over 60 years, the floor needed to be replaced. Water ingress had damaged the structure below the old floor, creating an uneven surface and, in some parts, rotten floorboards. Our contractors have stripped out the old floor and replaced it with a multifunctional sports floor, comprising 22mm solid hardwood floorboards fastened to a resilient subfloor system, over a damp-proof membrane, suitable for dancing, bowls, and everyday community events. External rainwater drainage work has also been carried out." He also expressed his gratitude to the Parish Clerk, Hayley Steel, for managing the project.

Chairman of Teynham Parish Council, Paul Townson, told SFM News: "We are delighted to see the Teynham Community Hall ready to serve our community once again. We look forward to welcoming back our community groups and hosting a variety of events in this improved space."
