Viridian Housing are a Housing Association providing social housing to over 30,000 residents, spanning across London, the Southeast, Midlands and West Sussex.
BBL were placed on the tender list by Viridian Homes Employers Agent, MA Associates, to provide a quote for the development of 18 units on a design and build basis. This is a form of contract that Benning Brothers specialise in and have a proven track record for delivering Housing Association projects in the Southeast.
BBL tendered and secured the contract and agreed a fixed price sum for delivering the 18 apartments in a 13 month build period using a traditional method of construction, including brick, block and plank floors. We are proud to say that yet again BBL has delivered a quality product and service to our client on the agreed handover date.
The project was seen as one of the most technically challenging projects that BBL have delivered within this tight programme, which included a large expanse of substructure under-build, a complex drainage system (including attenuation), intricate steelwork, a pedestrian lift, all of which formed part of a development on a very tightly constrained site surrounded by roads and houses.
We are proud to say that this project was overseen by an experienced and qualified management team which ensured that BBL made this project an outstanding statement building, enhancing the local area, where we received many compliments by the residents on completion of this project, along with a fully satisfied client.
BBL have delivered a good quality development. The programme for the scheme was tight, however BBL delivered the scheme within programme and budget.
Viridian Housing would be very happy to work with BBL on future projects.
