External Decoration of Nexus House, Newport
Hurley & Davies were delighted to collaborate with Vinci Facilities to provide full contract administration services for the external redecoration of Nexus House, Newport, a Welsh Government building housing Newport City Homes and the UK Passport Office.
The 5-storey building required substantial scaffolding and the project was F10 notifiable under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015. The 12-week programme was successfully managed and co-ordinated throughout resulting in a project that was delivered within budget and without issue.
For the building to remain ‘business as usual’ and disruptions to be minimised, provisions were made for staff and members of the public whilst the works were undertaken. Regularly scheduled site meetings allowed contractors and the client to address potential issues or risks as they became known which ensured clear communications between all stakeholders and enabled smooth project delivery.
Additional items such as corroded louvre doors, stained balcony soffits, and soiled boundary walls were also addressed under the project’s provisional sums and contingencies so that an excellent standard of finish was achieved across the entire external fabric of this impressive building.
