Work on a £3.5 million housing refurbishment project in Govan, Glasgow is now complete.
CCG has completed work to redevelop four blocks of flats in Crossloan Road.
The scheme, which was carried out on behalf of Elderpark Housing, saw the number of flats reduced from 35 down to 31, with a third flat removed on some of the landings to increase space for residents.
Other new features include a utility room in each flat, internal wall insulation, communal wi-fi as standard and a complete makeover of the close and back court areas which retain the existing history.
The scheme has been funded 50% through a grant from the Scottish Government through Glasgow City Council’s Development and Regeneration Services, with Elderpark Housing investing almost £1.8m of their own resources.
Elspeth Millen, Chairperson of Elderpark Housing, said: "I am truly delighted with the end result and more importantly from what I gather the tenants are equally, if not more, pleased with the homes they will be living in."
CCG Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Alastair Wylie, said: "CCG was delighted to be appointed to this contract where we working with a long-standing client in the form of Elderpark Housing Association. The contract itself was extensive and given the nature of the works, at times very challenging, particularly when considering the needs of the surrounding community and the future habitants, however, the rewards are there to be seen as the contract has been delivered to an incredibly high standard.
"I want to express my thanks to our expert site team that managed the contract and hope the tenants of the association enjoy in their new homes."
