Renovation - Sugarbond, Edinburgh - Client: MCP (Sugarbond Ltd)
Principal Contractor: Gordon Elder Developments
Contract Value: £100,000
The project consists of the renovation of an existing building to form three offices and a cafe with a part first floor level constructed within the existing double height space accessed via spiral staircases.
The access to the building is adjacent to a public walkway and public security was a major issue for the contractor when offloading large elements eg steelwork and staircases. The contractor utilised the use of a pend adjacent to the building and used heras fencing as protection adjacent to the public walkway.
The project is currently progressing on site and is due for completion in the near future.
