Care Home Projects

Extensions and Alterations/Refurbishments

We understand that there are several critical elements to planning a care home project on an occupied site. As a matter of routine, we carry out detailed planning to consider:

  • Segregation of contractor from staff and residents.
  • Zoning of services to maintain continuity of kitchen services, lighting, heating, lifts, fire and intruder alarms, CCTV etc.
  • Safe means of escape during construction.
  • Consideration for deliveries and refuse collection.
  • Staff and visitor parking.
  • Contractors site requirements (compound, deliveries, storage, huts, welfare facilities etc)
