Works update - January 2024

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, Sanusi Conteh by calling 07855 967 608.


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

Our progress so far:

  • Completion of structural investigations to the facades of the building
  • Ongoing investigations to the facade front and rear elevations to ascertain the integrity of the new cladding
  • Also checking the integrity of cavity barriers around the windows and doors

Next month's key steps:

  • We will be commencing the installation of new insulation, bracketry and cladding for the fire remediation works on all elevations
  • We will also commence the new interface sealing membrane cladding fire remediation works on all other elevations

Resident respite:

As you may or may not be aware, a resident respite unit is available at our site office located at 53 Whytecliffe Road South. This area is where residents can escape any disruption and noise due to the works being undertaken.

The respite consists of Wi-Fi, a television, a fridge along with tea and coffee making facilities.

Please don't hesitate to contact RLO, Sanusi for further information regarding using the respite.
