THEIR CHALLENGE:
The Brotton development, funded by ‘Homes England,’ faced significant setbacks due to incomplete and subpar construction by a previous developer. Applebridge Building Services was entrusted by Home Group with rectifying these issues, with a focus on preserving the existing outer shell while enhancing integrity, functionality, and aesthetics.
OUR SOLUTION:
Our expert team meticulously removed previous installations and conducted internal repairs while safeguarding the outer shell. One notable challenge was the improperly installed first-floor steel framework, causing a 40mm gap to the external wall.
To address this, we installed additional supports and packing to rectify the sagging framework and brought it up to regulations, including firebreaks and sealing.
