Leading building services provider J S Wright has secured a contract worth more than £4m to fit out a major new affordable homes scheme in West London.
The award-winning company, which has offices in Birmingham, Bristol and London, will equip 195 houses and apartments at the former Reynards Mill Trading Estate in Windmill Road, Brentford for developer Hill.
J S Wright has been chosen by Hill as lead coordinator for the mechanical and plumbing services for the scheme, which is being built on the site of an industrial yard that used to hold the BBC’s archives.
Underfloor heating, low pressure hot water heating and heat recovery ventilation for all 123 affordable apartments managed by Notting Hill Housing will be provided by the company, which will also install a heat interface unit with pre-payment metering in each apartment to deliver boosted domestic water services, along with sanitary ware and soil and waste services.
The company will also install dry risers within each of the five-storey apartment blocks, as well as building controls, as part of the specialist mechanical package when it starts work on site in December 2016.
J S Wright is already working with Hill on contracts to design and install mechanical services for 441 new apartments in Alperton, and 161 retirement flats in Muswell Hill, both for completion in 2017.
Marcus Aniol, Managing Director of J S Wright, said: “We are looking forward to our key role in bringing many more new homes to another part of London for a major developer with whom we have built a highly successful working relationship.”
J S Wright, which was founded in 1890, specialises in the design and installation of mechanical and electrical services for the hotel, residential, social housing, student accommodation, leisure and commercial sectors. The company was named as 2015 Building Services Contractor of the Year.
