Next Phase Of Govanhill Window Replacement Programme To Begin

Construction News Image
CCG is to begin work on the next phase of a window replacement programme in Govanhill, Glasgow.

Up to 89 properties will be improved during the 10th phase of the scheme, which is being delivered on behalf of Govanhill Housing Association.

CCG has been involved throughout various phases of the Association's planned maintenance programme most recently completing Phase 7 in North Govanhill consisting of 74 properties.

Elsewhere, the company is continuing works at Inglefield Street to develop 22 'affordable' homes on behalf of the Association, which are scheduled to be complete this summer.

CCG Manufacturing Manager, John Paton, said: "Working with tenemental housing stock can be a challenge as the windows are not always the same size. That is why CCG perform a survey of every property prior to commencing manufacture ensuring that our client – in this case, Govanhill Housing Association – benefit from right-first-time delivery.

"Our timber windows are designed and manufactured across a semi-automated CNC production line based at the CCG Group HQ in Cambuslang. Through precision engineering, our windows are manufactured to the highest quality standard and to exacting specification bringing an assurance of security as well as improved environmental performance.

"We also have innovative machines such as a robotic paint applier that allows us to consistently finish our windows prior to going to site, ultimately making the installation process faster and easier for CCG SBS and minimising disruption to tenants.

"We look forward to continuing our partnership with Govanhill Housing Association over the 20-week programme."

John McLardie, Chairperson of Govanhill Housing Association, said: "This latest phase of replacing older window units with new double-glazed high-performance timber windows is an important aspect of the Association's ongoing Major Repairs and Planned Maintenance programme which aims to reduce fuel bills for our tenants by improving energy efficiency. We look forward to another successful contract with CCG."
