Structural Repairs to Seafront Apartment Building

Posted by JYM Partnership on

Scaffold is starting to go up on first Phase of a wider project to undertake extensive structural repairs to a residential apartment building on the seafront in Lytham St Annes. 

Over time, as with any structure, this apartment building has withstood the north west England climate but its sea front location means that the weather conditions can be particularly severe.  Early structural assessments undertaken by Reid Jones Partnership Structural Engineers indicated problems with the façade and so JYM Partnership were engaged by the Management Company to lead a design team to undertake necessary remedial works.

Working with the Management Company, residents, Managing Agent (Realty Management) and consultancy team, JYM Partnership’s Chartered Building Surveyors have put together a scheme of works which will not only repair problems for the long term, we will also add some architectural interest to the façade.

Phase 1 is being completed by Rosslee Construction and is due to complete in Summer 2025.  We are excited to see the results of a lot of hard work.

Secondary School MUGA Pitches

Secondary School MUGA Pitches

We have recently completed two MUGAs (Mix Use Games Areas) for two Lancashire secondary Schools and are preparing for a hat trick, with a third on its way!

The first project was to convert the unforgiving existing tarmac covered play area into a multi-functional games area for various sports in addition to a running track.

The second school had difficulty with their existing grassed play area becoming waterlogged at various times of the year, limiting the areas available for play and sports. We converted this area into two distinctly different play areas, one for structured team sports and one areas for general play. An additional existing basketball area was recovered with a new blue multi play surface.

Both projects had substantial below ground drainage installed, allowing the areas to be used all year round, much to the delight of the schools. Upon completion the Schools commented “The new outdoor games area is looking FAB and waiting for the children to use up all of their energy!” and “Amazing Job! Can’t wait to see it in use!”
