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

Our progress so far:

• We have commenced and are continuing with the installation of the cladding, including gas isolations to all levels and elevations
• The brickworks side rise cavity fire barrier works, to all windows, doors and slab installations on all levels will be starting from the roof level 6th floor downwards
• The brickwork balconies and floor slabs on the rear elevation commenced on 13th August
• The under-croft area is to start from 15th August. We will be carrying out the first fix on the scaffold areas on either side of the entrance ramp

Next month's key steps:

• We will be continuing with the new cladding works, gas isolations and brickworks to all elevations
• We will be commencing with the installation of the aluminium decking on the balconies
