NEW LETTER: Internal/Recessed Balcony Decking Removal and Replacement

This article has been summarised, a full copy of the letter is available within the documents library.

Please be aware we will be removing the balcony decking on the internal / recessed balconies for imminent replacement. We will start the replacement process by firstly checking the integrity of the waterproofing and repair as necessary. Once the inspection and remedial waterproofing works have been completed, we will start installing the new decking very shortly afterwards. All newly installed decking will be protected with Correx sheet until works are complete.

Balcony strip out, waterproofing and decking replacement works to all 59 balconies will take approximately four weeks to complete and will affect the following flats commencing from Monday 17th October. Any deviation from the planned works will be notified in good time.

Flats with internal / recessed balconies commencing Monday 17th October:

Section 1: Flats 104 | 110 | 116 | 122 | 128 | 134 | 140 | 146
Section 2: Flats 34 | 40 | 46 | 52 | 58 | 64

Please be aware that once the decking has been removed, there will be a 130-150mm (5-6 inch) step down from your flat into the balcony and a sign will be fixed to your balcony door to remind you of the step. The new decking will be installed at a similar height to the original decking and you will be informed about the installation date once all remedial works are complete.

Please contact your RLO, Christine on 07766 420 977 if you have any questions or queries regarding these works.
