Water Feature

The site team at Woodland Court have utilised the existing stone pillars that made up part of the site boundary and decided that a water feature should be made and installed in the garden for the residents at Woodland Court to enjoy. A specialist company will visit the site where they will install pipes down the middle of the pillars to create a feature which will be unique to the gardens here at Woodland Court. 

YEDL Works

During the next few weeks there will be YEDL road works taking place on Staincliffe Road opposite the site to allow the permanent electric supply to be installed on site. Once the works are complete it allows the team at Woodland Court to start fitting permanent lighting to the rooms and corridors.

Caught in the Net!!!

Whilst roofing works have been taking place here at Westmoor, every possible precaution has to be taken to ensure the safety of the men working on the roof.  The site team on Westmoor have had safety nets installed underneath the roof trusses, so in the unlikely event that one of the workmen should fall they will be caught in the safety net, thus preventing them from major injury.

 

The site team take site safety very seriously, and we like to go the extra mile to ensure that our site is the safest around.

 

 

Glazy Days....

This week saw the installation of the atrium glass to the site at Woodland Court.

 

This section of the building allows natural light to penetrate all the way down to the ground floor, and lets residents enjoy any days where venturing outside may not be possible due to bad weather. 

 

The atrium will have Automatic Opening Vents (AOV's) installed, which will automatically open when the inside temperature gets above a certain level, to ensure the residents inside don't overheat.

 

 

 

Building Futures

Earlier today Darran Morrison (Project Manager), presented the successful trainees who have completed the Wates Building Futures course with their certification for the scheme.

 

The presentation was attended by members of Kirklees Council, Wates and Build.  Green Future Building held the course at their premises in Kirklees, and the planters made by the candidates have been donated to a local charity.
