Find Out MoreClient: Sager Construction Limited
John Noad (Building Environment) Ltd delivered a full mechanical, public health, and electrical services package for this mixed-tenure residential scheme comprising private, affordable, and retail elements. Designed with high-performance infrastructure and coordinated systems throughout, the development includes basement car parking, vertical apartment risers, communal amenity areas, and advanced security installations.
MEP design included low-energy heating and cooling, high-efficiency ventilation, fire safety systems, and smart-enabled electrical controls. Services were carefully integrated across private and affordable blocks, with distinct zoning, metering, and dedicated risers for residential, retail, and landlord provisions.
