External Facade
Start August 2023Expected to end TBC
Status: in progress
Phase two involves improving the external facade and revamping the entry system.
This milestone includes
Entry System Overhaul
Start August 2023Expected to end August 2023
The next phase is the refurbishment of the door entry system. As the door provides access and security for the entire building it is essential we overhaul all the existing cabling and electrics. Each block will receive brand new handsets and we will fit a "cat five cabling" throughout each block.
New Door System
Start August 2023Expected to end August 2023
After the facade is clean and the entry system has been refurbished, we'll install the new upgraded security doors. Advancements in door construction have improved greatly over the years and the new doors will provide residents with more secure portals.
Raising the scaffold
Start January 2024Expected to end July 2024
At this stage, we are ready to raise the scaffold to start external works.
Window survey
Start July 2024Expected to end July 2024
Once the scaffold is up we will complete a survey of existing windows. Each window is counted and measured and entered into an internal database. As the window construction can take up to 18 weeks we may occasionally complete the survey by using a small mobile elevated platform known as a cherry picker.
Facade clean up
Start July 2024Expected to end July 2024
At the stage we use a heated chemical-free pressure washer to clean debris, grime and wear from the building's facade.
Window Installation
Start July 2024Expected to end TBC
These composite windows are next generation and offer unrivalled insulation and efficiency. This is an essential part of the renovation and can not be rushed.
Post installation clean up
Start TBCExpected to end TBC
Installing windows is a big job and we anticipate we'll need to clear debris, and carry out any required repairs and generally make good the internal and external structure after the installation is complete. This usually means replastering and painting or in best case scenario some trimming and touching up.
Brick and stone repairs
Start July 2024Expected to end TBC
All buildings are at the mercy of the elements and over time the brick and stone work can begin to degrade. During this phase, we'll repair or replace any failed pointing, mortar, stone and brick work. This could mean reforming or replacing the brickwork recemeting and repointing mortar. Repairs to the stone work will also be done at this stage, this is a more skilled job and requires specialists. Our intention is to repair the significant repairs and return the building facade to its former glory.
QA inspection
