Lovell to transfom flats in West Bromwich

Lovell has been awarded a £4.8m refurbishment scheme which will dramatically transform two high-rise blocks of flats in West Bromwich. 

The project involves major internal and external improvement work to St Clements House and Wimberger House in West Bromwich.

Lovell is to carry out the 18-month modernisation project at the two high-rise blocks, which comprise of a total of 72 flats.

Lovell will install brand-new bathrooms, including walk-in showers for customers with mobility difficulties, at each home and new aluminium and timber windows in place of old metal windows.  

The drab concrete exterior of the building is also set to be transformed externally through the installation of a combined aluminium cladding and render system.  

In addition, Lovell will create new communal facilities in each block for use by residents. Other improvements will include refurbishment of the lift systems in each block. The two popular blocks of flats are for residents aged 50 and over.
