As part of the wider care home scheme Shanco Contracts, on behalf of LNT, were required by the local authority to make alterations to the entire frontage of their new site in Brampton, Barnsley.
Essential maintenance can present numerous challenges, especially for facilities managers responsible for large estates or complex industrial facilities. Whether you need to repair or replace external features or make a larger investment in building improvements, there are many considerations that could affect your project’s costs, timescales and overall success.
Shanco undertook a challenging project in Leeds involving the groundworks for a new care home facility. The scope of our services encompassed a wide range of tasks, from initial earthworks and foundation works to drainage installation, retaining wall construction, Section 278 entrance and crossing works, and drainage connection in the highway. One of the most intricate challenges faced was the unexpected discovery of an unknown basement beneath the site.
The latest development from St Francis Group, one of the UK’s leading regeneration & brownfield development specialists, is a new 2.2m square ft prime industrial/distribution park in Eggborough, North Yorkshire.
Shanco has completed the groundworks for a new modular building at a HM Prison in Preston, which will create additional space for staff and offices. The project was completed on behalf of PMA (Services) Ltd., which specialises in refurbishments for the Ministry of Justice.
Following successful projects and a strong working relationship with a previous client, Shanco was recommended for the Riverside Medical Centre groundworks by a new project manager arriving at CityBuild.
