Modules delivered for affordable housing project in Greenwich

Modules delivered for affordable housing project in Greenwich

We’ve been working with Elkins Construction to deliver 15 new council homes in Plumstead for the Royal Borough of Greenwich. 

The Gilbourne Road development is made up of modules manufactured at our factory in Dorset, and our installation team did a great job with the delivery, which was made challenging by the restricted size of the site. All modules were delivered and installed in just eight days! 

The development consists of a residential block of 13 flats and two houses which will be available for affordable rent to local people as part of the council’s Greenwich Builds scheme. 

The building exteriors were designed to reflect the character of the surrounding area and other nearby apartment blocks.

The properties are designed to meet net zero carbon emissions standards and the units will employ several energy-saving technologies including solar panels, triple glazing and air-source heat pumps.

By working with us and choosing to use Modern Methods of Construction (MMC), Elkins Construction can deliver lower energy consumption and less waste than would have been the case with traditional construction. 

The finishing touches are now being added to the homes and the project is expected to complete soon!
