Group Completes Work at Ilkeston Rugby Club

Works at Ilkeston Rugby Club on a New Changing Block have been completed.

The works comprised the demolition of the existing changing room facilities and the design and construction of 8 changing rooms with ancillary officials changing, meeting room, physiotherapy and first aid room. The project took 16 weeks to complete.

Ilkeston Rugby Club?s Chairman Sean Ryan commented ?The club has invested a great deal of time and energy over a number of years to make this project a reality. We have encountered all sorts of problems along the way, but the actual construction of the building went far more smoothly than I had anticipated. I have been very impressed with the Gelder Group. Not only did they bring the project in on cost they also brought it in on time so that it is ready for the new season. Their backup and general support was excellent with regular consultations and updates?

The Group would like to take this opportunity to wish the Rugby Club all the best in the forthcoming season.

As part of the Gelder Group?s sponsorship agreement with NLD Rugby we can offer an at risk full feasibility study to any Rugby Club that requires a new build and as such providing protection against wasted expenditure allowing for such monies to remain in the game.  If this is something you would be interested in please contact our Design & Build Manager Matthew Salton on 01427 788837.
