The Wates team and our sub-contractors would like to thank you for your continued patience whilst we have been on site at Sampson Grange. Our site will close for the Christmas period on Tuesday 24 December, and will re-open in the New Year on Thursday 2 January.

Can we also take this opportunity to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !

The internal works are continuing with the installation of bathrooms and kitchens into block 1. Scaffolding has started to come down on the site and that reveals how the buildings will look to our neighbours.

Internal works are now ongoing in both blocks. Block 1 has been 1st fixed by all trades and the final plasterboard & plaster skim are ongoing as shown in the photograph. The internal cabling is fixed in a service cupboard on each floor and brought to ground level where it can be installed to the incoming electric service. Block 2 stonework will be completed this week allowing render works to commence.

Roofing

The roof is now completely covered on Block 2 and we have commenced installing the internal insulation. On the roof areas the render is installed as shown in the photograph.  Block 1 is continuing with plasterboard and internal wall construction.

 

 

The internal walls are continuing to be boarded in Block 1 and we have attached a photograph showing inside one of the plots. The pink board you can view on the ceiling is a specific fire board and the internal walls are all double boarded before we commence any internal services.

The second photograph shows the inside of the second block with the safety lighting and fire point installed. Each floor of the building have a sounder and alarm point together with extinguishers and fire plans.

 

 

Block 2 timber frame is now fully installed with the next phase of works being to install all vapour barriers and fire barriers to the frame. Block 2 is continuing internally with acoustic floors and plasterboard being installed. We have agreed parking facilities with a neighbour so are trying to keep the roads as clear as possible of parked vehicles during the day. Thank you for your continued patience.
