Emanuel House (cwg13297)

Update of October 2023

All leaseholders were invited to a meeting in person with an option to join remotely. An update was shared and information to inform them that the timeline has shifted slightly and is shown below; 

• Specification drafted Winter 2023
• Contract to be signed Summer 2024
• Potential works to start Autumn 2024
• During each of these stages we will be updating leaseholders.

The shift is timeline is due to thorough testing that needs to be completed to ensure any façade/window works are carefully investigated and tested to ensure the project encapsulates all works required which have increased.

Window options were also presented to leaseholders. The Q&A and presentation from the meeting can be seen in the documents section.

A further meeting will be arranged in January

Update of May 2023

Subsequent to the last meeting on 27 February, all homeowners were provided with the meeting minutes and a copy of the questions and answers received from the Residents Association. Project Consultants, Faithful and Gould, have been appointed and have been on site surveying the building but more work needs to be done to look at the windows in more detail and remeasure the interior layout of the flats.

Residents again gave feedback at the meeting on 9 May 2023 and a number of questions were raised. These were answered in the meeting but so that all residents that were not at the meeting can benefit, a copy of the questions and answers received has been posted on this website so that all residents are up to date.

The next steps include further inspections, the appointment of an architect to review the cladding and the start of a procurement process in line with Westminster’s procurement guidelines.

A further meeting for all residents will be arranged again to take place in July 2023

Update of February 2023

Following resident feedback, Earl Kendrick Building Surveyors were appointed to carry out window surveys to the building.

It was recommended that the windows are to be replaced and to include internal and external repairs and redecoration where necessary. We are now in discussion stage with residents regarding the proposed works.

In November 2022 a meeting with residents was arranged to discuss the proposed major works at Emanuel House. Notes from the meeting are available to view in the documents section of this page.

A second project update meeting with residents from Emanuel House was held on 27th February 2023 in City Hall. Notes from the meeting are available to view in the documents section of this page.

A further meeting will be arranged in May 2023.
