Phase 2 of LACE Housing Project Complete

On 27th February the construction of four, 2 bedroom flats and five 2 bedroom bungalows was completed at Phase 2, Olsen Court, Lincoln for our clients LACE Housing.

To enable this project to be delivered within our client?s tight timescale a timber frame structure clad in facing brickwork and Sto render was chosen on to a raft foundation.


The project is located at the centre our clients existing care home facilities and so careful consideration and planning was required by our management team to ensure that disruption to the residents, visitors and staff of LACE housing was kept to a minimum.

The ?850,000 scheme is the first part of the Phase 2 project.  Phase 3 which consists of 21 flats is due to be completed in early April 2009.

'The Association has been impressed regarding the quality and standard of works during the development period.  Positive relationships between the client, contractor and residents have proved to be effective. 

The contractor?s knowledge and understanding of the type of development required and the needs associated to the occupants has also been invaluable. 

This development has proved to be a tremendous success and the Association looks forward to securing the services of the Gelder Group regarding future new developments and improvements to housing care and support services for LACE Housing.?
