Almost there!
The project is progressing well since my last post. Building control approval has now been received from Birmingham City Council, party wall letters have been signed and returned and all contracts with contractors are now in place. We were also lucky to receive funding for the solar thermal system from the Low Carbon Buildings Programme just before the scheme was prematurely closed by DECC.
The task at hand now is to decant the tenants into temporary accommodation for the duration of the works. This has been more problematic than we originally thought due to a sudden shortage of suitable properties in the local area to rent. After much searching it looks like a place has now been secured and the move can quickly proceed. So if all goes to plan then the main building contractor should have access to the property by mid August. Fingers crossed….
