To replace defective paving in a number of galleries
So that the Museum galleries could remain open, all work is carried out once the Museum had closed for the day and then made good and cleared in good time for reopening the following morning.
The defective paving includes marble, limestone and slate. Matching materials are sourced for each and, once the damaged stone has been carefully removed, cut to shape and bedded in using the appropriate mortar.
