Thank you to all those who were available to join our resident meeting on Tuesday 28th February. We apologise again for the technical issues and thank you for your patience. The slides from the presentation were circulated on Wednesday 1st March to all residents - if you did not see these please reach out to your PMO, Saphire Stirling on 0203 815 1976 or at saphire.stirling@nhg.org.uk.

Material Consultation

We have completed the colour sample on the zinc and timber facades and produced a brochure to illustrate all sample colours and provide you with an idea of how they will look once installed.

Confirmation of materials to date:

Zinc Cladding - panels to match existing welted joints - manufacturer (Alzeco RAL 7040)
Timber Cladding/Soffits - Marley Cedral Lap Weatherboard Cladding (Light Oak - CL104)

For decking replacement we have explored all options available and have found the best match. We took on board your comments of the previous sample being too light. The alternative sample is to review in the brochure. We welcome your comments on the decking sample via your PMO/HO.

Decking - Ryno TerraSmart Aluminium Decking (Fawn Brown - RAL 8007) - for your comments by 19th March.

Balcony Works

Equans will have a balcony works tracker in place and work with residents phase by phase. Paige Knowles (RLO) will contact residents in due course. We understand that some residents have some bespoke glass panels on their balcony. All glazing that is removed, will be marked for ease of identification to ensure that it is refitted in the correct space. This will combat the issue of the wrong panels being installed to any balconies.

Scaffolding

Scaffolding on Phase 1 has been completed and has an alarm installed. This will be repeated on Phases 2 and 3 as the scaffold erection is completed.
