London & South East NHBC Awards Premier Construction

Rewarding Bay House

Written by Roma Publications

Bay House, NHBC Awards 2014

Based in London, Hollybrook Homes is a private owned, family-run residential and commercial development and construction company with a strong portfolio of projects in the UK.

The company has vast experience in the new build market, but is also capable of tackling diverse and sometimes quite challenging restoration and refurbishment schemes.

Past projects for Hollybrook Homes include Priory Mews in Southend-on-Sea, Hutchings Wharf on the Isle of Dogs, The Icon in Basildon and Nobel House in Surrey. Meanwhile, a recently completed project for Hollybrook Homes is Bay House, a half rental, half shared ownership development which reached completion in April 2014.

Bay House comprises four blocks of flats, each containing 24 units, which were constructed using traditional methods of brick and block. The buildings incorporate block and beam floors, concrete tiled roofs and aluminium windows and were completed with a communal garden.

Construction work began on Bay House in January 2013 and continued to run smoothly until the project’s completion date during Easter 2014. Multi-disciplinary architectural practice ATP provided all architectural services on the new build scheme.

Speaking to Premier Construction about the project, Hollybrook Homes Site Manager, Danny Morgan, said:

“All the way through this scheme it was clear that this was a good scheme to be involved with. This was due in large part to our subcontractors who have been with us pretty much on all of our projects. We use the same subcontractors throughout all our schemes and not only does this provide a high level of trust, we also find that we encounter less problems as a result.”

Not only was Bay House a successful project in terms of its construction, but it has also proved successful with the NHBC, picking up an NHBC Pride in the Job Award for Danny.

Danny commented:

“Other Hollybrook Homes site managers have picked up awards, but this is the first time that I have been given an award by the NHBC. Winning this award is great and something which I am very proud of.

“At Hollybrook Homes we are quite passionate about what we do and the quality of our work. There’s no exception to the high standards of quality that we deliver.”
