An SPV developing an office to residential conversion in Gravesend. New internal construction and high specification fit out of two and three bedroom flats for rent. Construction commences Summer 2022 with an end 2023 completion. The SPV has taken fire strategy advice from a consultant in Fire Aware membership to ensure the planning consent for the additional storeys to be erected on the building takes the strategy into account at an early stage ensuring no surprises later on once consent is given and working design is created.

“This development will be safer than those we have carried out previously as we have taken as much advice as possible on the outturn fire strategy of the proposal prior to submitting to planning. In doing this we have added a second staircase to the application, which would have seriously impacted the project budget had we not known in advance of the consent being granted, pressurising our ability to achieve over and above levels of compliance”
