New Extra Care Facility, Olsen Court, Lincoln

 

Client: LACE Housing Association

Type of Contract: Design & Build

Organisational Role: Principle Contractor

Project Duration: 50 Weeks

Value: £3,000,000

Status: Completed

 

The project involves the construction of 5 bungalows, 4 flats, and 21 extra care units together with a new main entrance, storage areas, canteen area as well as communal areas. To assist with meeting our client’s tight deadline, a timber framed construction was adopted on a concrete raft foundation. The project was handed over on time and within budget to our delighted client.
 
Careful consideration has had to be given to our clients as the work was carried out in an area surrounded by other care facilities adjacent to a retail park and residential estate. All roads & footpaths had to be kept open at all times with dust & noise kept to a minimum to avoid disruption to other residents & staff.
 
The Association has been impressed
regarding the quality and standard of works
during the development period” “The
contractor’s knowledge and understanding of
the type of development required has been
invaluable”
Nic Chambers,
Chief Executive LACE Housing
