Progress is being maintained to deliver the project on time

Design and Build Project Manager, Linford Group, is happy that progress is being maintained to deliver the project on programme. After the quick erection of the timber frame and Hemcrete® walls, the roof was trussed and tiled with clay tile from Sandtoft. The tiles were chosen as they were easy to install, affordable, natural and fitted in with the house design.

Triple glazed windows and the external doors, supplied by Jeld-Wen, have also been installed.

Internally, the mechanical and electrical first fix has been completed, the timber partition walls have been installed and the spray plastering has now commenced.

Externally the Hemcrete® walls are drying nicely and rendering will start next week. It is anticipated the two-coat render system will take eight days to install.

This will just leave external landscaping and then the internal fit out. At the moment the project is on target to be completed by the middle of May, giving a complete build time from completion of the groundworks of just 12 weeks.
