Welcome to your resident's update from Equans. This is a great way for us to keep you up to date with all the work that has been going on so far and what we expect to achieve going forward.
If you have any queries about the works being undertaken by Equans, please direct your query to your appointed Resident Liaison Officer, Carole Coleman by calling 07880 786 442.
As you will be aware, Equans has been appointed by Southern Housing to replace cladding and associated fire remediation works at Cygnus Court. We would like to extend our sincere thanks, gratitude and appreciation for your patience, support and understanding during the fire remediation works.
Our progress so far:
- The roofing works are ongoing and are going extremely well, we are now working on the 8th and final property
- The 4th floor windows have been firestopped and the surrounds have started being installed on that floor
- 3/4 of the new higher parapet walls have been built and board externally
- Insulation has started to be installed on the building which forms part of the final render system
Our next step:
- We will be looking to start the finished Langley roof over the next few weeks and there will be substantial deliveries but we will advise in due course - we would appreciate everyone's understanding when this occurs as there may be some disruption due to each delivery consisting of around 50 pallets of material at a time

Our progress so far:
- We have decanted a flat on the top floor of the building so we can undertake the structural roofing works
- We have completed 95% of the Y-Wall board on the entire building and have commenced putting the tape on ready for the breather membrane
- We have completed the fire stopping works around the windows and gas risers. These have also been taped and are now ready for the next step
Our next step:
- We are currently waiting on the fire engineers to get back to us for the build-up of the soffits of the balconies. This will enable us to start working on these as soon as that information is available to us

After receiving a recent audit from the Considerate Constructors Scheme last month, the Cygnus Court site team have amazingly achieved a top score of 45/45!
The team achieved top marks in each of the three categories of 'Respect the Community', 'Care for the Environment' and 'Value their Workforce', achieving an impressive score of 45/45.
On 9th May, a CCS monitor joined Senior Site Manager, Mark Rains for an on-site tour to carry out their audit of the site, commenting things like "Whilst not all of the Scheme's checklist prompts are applicable to the works, those that are obtain a very high level of conformance. It is good to note that the improvement opportunities noted in the previous report have been actioned, along with other improvements made by the Senior Site Manager."
The CCS is an independent organisation founded to raise standards in the construction industry to ensure all construction sites present an image of competent management, efficiency, awareness of environmental issues and above all neighbourliness. Monitors from the scheme regularly audit our sites to ensure we are adhering to the scheme’s Code of Considerate Practice which is designed to encourage best practice beyond statutory requirement.
Each audit is split into three categories; respect for the community, protecting the environment and valuing the workforce each with a potential score out of 15 with a total combined max score of 45 available. To score above 13 in any category warrants an excellent level of achievement for that category.
Congratulations to Mark and the rest of the site team, and well done for achieving a fantastic score.
