Internal Fit Out
Start November 2024Expected to end G1: August 2025 | G2: TBC
Status: in progress
From the outside at least, the buildings will soon begin to look like a finished article. Soon, families will start to move in, but before that, the building needs an interior. There are walls, a roof, and windows, but there is still a good deal of work to be done before residents move in.
This milestone includes
Stairs
Start November 2024Expected to end April 2025
Skilled workers will arrive to fit and add fixtures, but they'll need stairs to get that plan off the ground floor.
Screed
Start October 2024Expected to end March 2025
At this stage, a concrete finisher performs a process called screeding. This involves cutting off excess wet concrete to bring the top surface of a slab to the proper grade and smoothness.
The first fix
Start October 2024Expected to end May 2025
Now that the house has a structure, workers will install the essential components to make it a home. This includes the electrics, plumbing and ventilation. Part of the first fix is the installation of cables, wires, pipes and other hidden fixtures.
Closing up the walls and dry lining
Start November 2024Expected to end May 2025
Before the second fix, plasterers will carefully close up and finish the interior walls.
The first coat of paint
Start January 2025Expected to end June 2025
Now that the plaster is dry and much of the internal work has been done, the decorators will apply the first coats of paint.
Kitchen and bathroom Installation
Start February 2025Expected to end June 2025
During this process, the team will install the kitchens, bathrooms, wardrobes and internal doors, skirtings and architraves.
The second fix
Start March 2025Expected to end July 2025
As soon as the plasterers and carpenters have completed the dry lining, the skilled workers will return to convert wires into sockets, and pipes into taps.
Wall Tiling
Start March 2025Expected to end July 2025
Tiles will be added to the kitchen and bathroom walls.
Powering up
Start April 2025Expected to end G1: July 2025 | G2: August 2025
For the first time the building will be connected to the Grid. Water, gas and electricity will flow through its pipes, and there will be light, heat, hot and cold water.
Decoration and flooring
Start April 2025Expected to end G1: July 2025 | G2: August 2025
At this point the painters and decorators will return to add the final touches to the interiors. At this stage, the project is in the final phase of preparation for the first householders. Before we can allow anyone to cross the threshold however, we have our own housekeeping to complete. Next Stage: The completed build.
