CLONARD GARDENS, SHELTERED HOUSING, BELFAST

A superb mixed project involving the construction of 42 sheltered units along with the renovation & restoration of an existing convent building. Each sheltered unit was constructed & finished to Oaklee housing association's specification, which involved close co-operation with their housing manager along with an awareness of the needs of the client. The restoration of the convent required shoring of the external walls to allow the roof structure to be replaced, while the external facade was restored to its original appearance in terms of plaster finish, windows, entrance doors & portico, down to the metalwork railings at the entrance.
