Lambeth Council, South London External Works Contract
The Project
We undertook a comprehensive external works contract for Lambeth, involving the construction of new brick walls, concrete repairs, and roof replacements. The project aimed to address structural concerns, enhance property resilience, and uplift the visual appeal of the neighbourhood.
The Challenges
This project presented several key challenges, including managing the expectations of both the client and residents while balancing the timeline and project budget, navigating logistical complexities due to the simultaneous nature of the brickwork, concrete repairs, and roofing works, and ensuring strict adherence to health and safety regulations, particularly during roof replacements and scaffolded repairs.
The Solution
Our success relied on a proactive and resident-focused approach, conducting regular resident consultations to provide updates and gather feedback, ensuring transparency at every stage. We coordinated with the client to maintain a clear timeline and anticipate potential disruptions, while sourcing durable and sustainable materials to ensure the long-term durability of brickwork, concrete repairs, and roofing upgrades.
The Process
We held detailed planning meetings with the client to scope the repairs and agree on priorities, scheduled works in phases to reduce disruption to residents and ensure seamless project flow, and executed repairs and roof replacements using skilled specialists, completing thorough quality checks at every phase. The completed works were signed off after final walkthroughs and client approval.
The Result
The properties in the area now benefit from enhanced structural integrity and aesthetic appeal, providing residents with safer and more comfortable homes. The addition of new brick walls and durable roofing has revitalised the external appearance of the properties. Positive feedback from both Lambeth Council and local residents has reinforced our reputation as a trusted partner in delivering high-quality external works.
