To Hill and back for J S Wright as it lands £4m housing contract

BIRMINGHAM building services provider J S Wright has secured a contract worth more than £4m to fit out a major new housing scheme in West London.

The company, which is headquartered in Aston, will equip 195 houses and apartments at the former Reynard Mills Trading Estate in Brentford for developer Hill.

J S Wright has been selected as lead coordinator for the mechanical and plumbing services for the scheme, which is being built on the site of an industrial yard that used to hold the BBC’s archives.   

It will provide underfloor heating, low pressure hot water heating and heat recovery ventilation for all 123 affordable apartments managed by Notting Hill Housing.

The firm will also install a heat interface unit with pre-payment metering in each apartment to deliver boosted domestic water services, along with sanitary ware and soil and waste services.

The company will start on site in December on the specialist mechanical package, which will also include the installation of dry risers within each of the five-storey apartment blocks, and building controls.

J S Wright is already working with Hill on contracts to design and install mechanical services for 441 new apartments in Alperton, and 161 retirement flats in Muswell Hill, both set for completion in 2017.

Marcus Aniol, managing director of J S Wright, said: “We are looking forward to our key role in bringing many more new homes to another part of London for a major developer with whom we have built a highly successful working relationship.”
