Bell Projects

Client: Bell Projects

Location: Hampstead

Requirement:
Bell Projects, part of the John Doyle Group, is a rapidly growing contractor with a turnover in excess of £60m. In June 2007, Bell Projects commenced the construction of a £13.8m project to build four luxury houses in Hampstead Heath, London. The company was looking for high-quality site accommodation that would reflect the prestigious nature of the project for a 60-week hire period.

Solution:
As on-site space was minimal, Bell Projects was looking for a three-storey solution to accommodate workers efficiently and to provide suitable office space with kitchen and toilet facilities. The modular building providers they approached were quoting above their budget and other site accommodation providers were unable to triple stack the buildings. Konstructa Hire was the only company able to provide the right solution at the right price.

John Lindsey, Senior Site Manager at Bell Projects says: “Having researched suitable site-accommodation providers, only Konstructa was able to triple stack the buildings. We were absolutely delighted with the all-steel construction of cabins and they are much wider and longer than the usual site cabins. It is the best site accommodation I have ever had!”

After Bell Projects made the initial call to Konstructa Hire, a representative visited their site the very next day. Work soon began to prepare the ground level for the installation of the 12 units in two, triple-stacked, linked complexes. The units were loaded on to level concrete pads from the road by tower crane and were up and running within three days.

John adds: “The delivery of the buildings went very smoothly. We were very impressed by what was achieved within a short time-frame. Konstructa also supplied the furniture so we were up and running very quickly. The accommodation has exceeded all our expectations and we are just as delighted with the professional service.”
