Works update - 17th July 2023

Welcome to your fortnightly 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, Trevon Mengot by calling 07811704593.


As you will be aware, Equans has been appointed by Southern Housing to replace cladding and associated fire remediation works at Cygnus Court.

Since our last update:

  • We will start liaising with the residents next week to book in boiler isolations so the remainder of the render can be removed from the building
  • We would like to perform a window check on all flats with a round window as the protective covers have been removed, some may need additional support to stay in place. We are hoping to do this during the balcony stripping phase - if you have a round window please contact RLO, Trevon on 07811704593 so he can book an appointment for the Site Manager and other operatives to investigate this issue and resolve it
  • Week commencing 24th July we will begin stripping around the balconies so please can all residents make sure balconies are cleared out - As stated in the letter sent to inform residents about stripping on balconies will not require you to be at home

As we get closer to the 24th July, please make sure the windows around the area where we will be working are closed to avoid dust and debris getting into your home.
