Plus the installation of new windows and loft insulation as well as upgraded heating systems. We extended the roofs at all 36 properties to allow for extra 150 millimetres of EWI. These works form part of CLC’s 11-year contract with Amey which has recently been renewed to March 2029. This enduring relationship has seen us deliver maintenance and refurbishment works to over 12,500 married quarters including void properties for the Ministry of Defence Service Family Accommodation (SFA).

This included wet weather, which was overcome by the invested in track mats. Initially the properties were all voids, but they became occupied by families during the works which altered our schedule. We worked closely with ecologists following their guidance when we discovered birds and bats in roof spaces, working around them or relocating them and acquiring the relevant licences to do so and installing bird/bat boxes on site. ‘Hedgehog Highways’ were installed into fences to ensure hedgehogs can pass freely through the gardens.
Innovations, challenges, solutions
Thanks to our strong technical capabilities and understanding of the unique needs of military housing, the duration of works was only extended by four weeks despite 12 weeks’ worth of delays.
