Successful Delivery in Cheltenham

Since the spring of 2019, SBS has been delivering a scheme for Cheltenham Borough Council, entitled 'External Renovation & Improvement of Cornish Type Properties.' Now, exactly on schedule, the scheme is approaching completion.

The work has featured improvements to a total of 36 properties, comprising 20 houses and four 2-storey blocks of flats. These improvements have included concrete repairs, fitting new energy efficient doors and windows, and the installation of external wall insulation.

Work On-Track in Broxtowe

Back in August, we announced that we had begun work on an ECO3-funded energy efficiency project for Broxtowe Borough Council, procured via Efficiency East Midlands. This involves installing PermaRock external wall insulation to 61 properties.

Work is now approximately two-thirds complete and still progressing quickly. The team is on track for finishing the scheme on or ahead of schedule

Success in Stoke

SBS is approaching the end of another successful scheme; this one for Stoke-on-Trent City Council. The work began in summer 2019 and came via Lot 3 of the council's General Building Works contract.

The scheme featured works on a variety of different property types on the Weston Coyney Estate, including four blocks of flats, 2- and 3-bedroomed semi-detached houses, and 1- and 2-bedroomed bungalows. The improvements varied by property but included:

3 Further Projects in Wrexham

In recent years, SBS has carried out numerous works for Wrexham County Borough Council, the most recent of which has been the newly completed re-roofing and external insulation scheme at Plas Madoc.

However, SBS staff have remained on site because, as the last scheme was finishing, so we received confirmation that we had won additional new contracts in the same area and for the same client.
