We're bricking it!

Its been a busy month on site -

Nethergate School in Nottingham is moving swiftly towards completion of the Phase 2 works, with the refurbished existing buildings looking much improved. All the existing classrooms have been re-vamped with new lighting, heating, IT equipment, blinds, full redecoration, new external doors to outdoor play areas, and plenty of built in storage ready for the school to fill in September!

At the Olde English site the steel frame is beginning to take shape. Next job is to help the client think of a name for the building - any suggestions welcome!

Work at Fritchley is on pause for summer holiday's and awaiting approval to relocate a sewer that runs underneath the new building, but the building has been set out, beginning to show the long linear form running along the new boundary.

At earlier stages, a design for a house extension near Matlock has been granted planning permission and we're starting to work on the building regulations application.

We've also had some good news about a completed project - R&K Jepson Funeral Directors in Wirksworth has been shortlisted for a Brick Award in the Best Commercial Building category! Looks like some tough competition in the shortlist though...
