Gaia heats Hektor’s house…
or rather his barn
PENDOCK’S COLUMNS TAKE OFF
AT THE O2
Fermacell flags up its
flooring credentials
When somebody books a beautiful
historic timber-framed barn as a
wedding venue, they want to see the
mellow oak beams in their natural glory;
they do not want to see unsightly steel
radiators bolted to them. That is why
landowner and developer, Hektor Rous,
chose Gaia’s wet underfloor heating
system in the renovation of the Grade II
listed barn at the family seat, Henham
Park, in Suffolk.
The Hub, which was formed in 2005 as
a Specialist Fit-out Contractor to the
Museums & Heritage Sector and has
since built an enviable reputation within
the industry, has specified decorative
column casings from Pendock for its
latest project carried out in Greenwich’s
most prominent landmark.
A new brochure on its
range of flooring systems
has been published by
Fermacell.
The Rous family has lived at Henham
Park since the 16th Century and, when
Hektor took over the daunting task
of running the estate in 2004, he set
about making the park and its various
buildings earn their keep. Events such as
the Grand Henham Steam Rally and the
first-ever Latitude Festival, soon started
bringing in sorely-needed funds.

Virgin Atlantic Airways and Delta Air
Lines, the official airline partners of The

the Turbine Lounge - a large bar and
seating area - while an additional “Secret
Meeting room” can cater for meetings,
private dining or other events in an
intimate setting.

Leading building boards manufacturer
Fermacell has launched a
comprehensive guide to planning and
installing its dry flooring systems.
The 64-page A4 manual details how
Fermacell’s dry flooring systems are a
practical and cost-effective alternative
to conventional wet screed to concrete
floors and how their excellent thermal
conductivity makes them a very efficient
overlay to underfloor heating systems.
In addition, an optional wood fibre layer
to the gypsum fibreboard base gives it
excellent acoustic properties.
