September 2019, Worrall St Construction Update

Written by

It’s been a busy summer since the existing building has been demolished and the land where  The Waterhouse will eventually stand.  

Since the last update, we’ve turned the entire site over to ensure that there are no obstructions in the soil. Our remediation contractor (Forshaw Demolition) has then compacted the soil in layers ensuring that the ground is ready to receive and support our building. Our main contractor has taken possession of the site and the piling rig is there now driving the concrete piles deep into the ground, these will be what the building stands upon when construction is completed, the cabins are in place and the perimeter fencing to the road is now up too.

There is a couple of weeks piling ahead of us before we can start pouring concrete, which will be the next update.
