THE RED BUILDING

>> Red, Ludgate Hill, Manchester

Envirosips have been awarded repeat business, to carry out facade remediation and roofing works at the Red Building.

We are pleased to advise that we have successfully secured Gateway 2 approval from the Building Safety Regulator (BSR), for the facade cladding and roof refurbishment project.

In collaboration with our valued client Grays Inn Capital supported by Neaves & Co and partners, BTP Architects, Introba Fire Engineering and WRT Consultants, we have worked with the BSR to successfully demonstrate a building regulations compliant design, to achieve Gateway 2 approval. With the extended processing of BSR applications being the subject of government and media attention, this is a significant milestone allowing us to progress on site with the remediation of the building.

Under the Building Safety Act 2022 Gateway 2 is a critical approval process, introduced for a HRB (High Risk Building), as it is over 7 storeys / 18m in height and contains more that two residential units.

We have now commenced on site with a 54 week project duration, methodically removing combustible materials and replacing with fully compliant systems.
