Pentaco completed the construction of the first floor gymnasium at the Chelmsford Sports and Athletic Centre on the 9th December. This enabled the client to fit out the facility and it was officially opened prior to Christmas in readiness for what was expected to be a busy period straight into the new year. The completion date could not be moved so we worked round the clock to complete the facility whilst absorbing additional works instructed by the client.
We have now finished the construction of eight new detached bungalows at Saddler close in Attleborough for Eastern Prospective holdings Limited. The development included it’s own private access road and all dwellings were fitted out to a high standard including underfloor heating throughout, oak veneer doors and brickweave drives. Despite some testing early wintry conditions the site has progressed well and the client has agreed sales on all plots.
