Summary
Uncovering sections of previously completed work has revealed
additional areas of concern therefore delaying site progress.
Although this is a major disappointment we had anticipated
additional problems and had added extra time within the
program to action any unforeseen issues.
We have commenced remedial works on these areas and
finalised the detail to secure air tightness which is required to
achieve Passivhaus standards.
We are still looking to handover on 20.06.16, but this still remains a
provisional date
Hastoe would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused due
to the delay for this scheme and we want to thank the Parish
Council & Local Authority for their continued support.
