Flynn Toronto metals and glazing crews are currently working on the University of Toronto Mississauga Campus (UTM). Our metals scope includes approximately 30,000 sq. ft. of Custom terracotta tile (exterior and interior Atrium) custom colour and profile, 12,000 sq. ft. of penthouse siding profile HF12, and 2,400 sq. ft. of Hunter Douglas cladding soffit. Our glazing scope includes 4-sided structure glazed curtain walls, conventional curtain walls, external and internal doors, interior frameless screens, free-standing and point glazed glass balustrades, and smoke baffles.
Foreman Luis Soares has done an excellent job keeping the project on track and on schedule. He has been an inspirational crew leader and built and maintained a great relationship with the General Contractor Stuart Olson and other trades on site helping guarantee coordination ran smoothly.
The first obstacle Luis and the crew overcame was the installation of the heavy terracotta tiles which were, on average, 80 lb. per piece. They managed to install approximately 100+ tiles per day to ensure we met our project goals. Despite the logistic restrictions of material deliveries and fast-tracked scheduling, he ensured there were minimal issues along the way.
Aside from this current project, Flynn has also done work on three other buildings on this campus. Due to the amazing work of our foremen, we continue to be at the top of UTM’s list for sub trades on this campus.
