Bradford Refurbishment Underway

Bradford Refurbishment Underway
Final work to refurbish the City Park water feature in Bradford has got underway following a burst pipe last year. The damage from this burst pipe was extensive, requiring repairs throughout the plantroom.
The Fountain Workshop managed to provide emergency repairs to the Mirror Pool plantroom immediately following the incident, meaning that the water feature was able to be partly operational throughout its most popular period over the Summer, and we are now delighted to share that we are now in the process of undertaking full refurbishment work.
Happy New Year!

The London Design Festival has returned to King’s Cross for another year, this time bigger and better than ever before!

For LDF 2019, however, the involvement of King’s Cross in the Festival has expanded, with King’s Cross becoming the LDF’s very first Design District. Through this, the area has hosted a number of exhibits and events, including displays as part of London Fashion Week.

Bradford Mirror Pool Reopens
Thanks to the fantastic work of our Maintenance team, the Bradford Mirror Pool fountains have been turned back on after a water flow problem cause them to be nonoperational throughout July. The repair has been completed ahead of schedule, with only the central jet remaining to be tackled.
While the Mirror Pool was turned off, Bradford Council turned the City Park into a beach and used the space for events as part of their summer science festival. While these were both hugely popular, the people of Bradford have made their delight at the return of the water very much known through social media! Thank you, Bradford, for your patience and enthusiasm!

Bradford Maintenance Under Way
Following a water flow issue that led to the Bradford Mirror Pool water feature having to be turned off, maintenance work to get it back up and running has begun. The feature consists of a number of jets, fog, and a large space that can be flooded or left dry as required. It is estimated that the Mirror Pool will be reopened in August, with the fountain jets being turned back on in November.
