The Clayworks, Smithfield, Stoke-on-Trent
ResidentialThe Challenge
This development included the design and construction of a 12 storey building, to include 151 private rented sector apartments together with associated communal space. The building also includes a commercial unit completed to ‘shell’ level on the lower ground floor, with associated public realm spaces around the perimeter and the provision of a temporary car park separate from the site.
Key Considerations
This included ensuring the development team provided the project in line with the requirements of the development agreement and that the quality of the works was to an acceptable standard.
The Outcome
Despite the issues caused by the demise of the original contractor and the Covid pandemic, the building was completed: meeting the requirements of the development agreement and to a quality standard.
Results
Due to the demise of the original contractor and the complications caused by the Covid pandemic, the project was completed 12 months later than originally planned. No additional costs were incurred by our client despite the delays.
