Over-cladding

Following the Grenfell Towers tragedy, Cardiff Council tested the cladding on its’ domestic high rise blocks of flats and took the decision to remove it.

 

Housing & Communities is now looking to re-clad Lydstep Flats and has engaged consultants to develop design options for the Council to consider.

 

The option considered the safest in respect of fire safety is to move forward with the brick option.

 

Housing & Communities are working with colleagues in Projects, Design & Development and Procurement to appoint a contractor to deliver the re-cladding works.

 

The recommendation is to appoint a Contractor to deliver these works via a mini-competition under the South East Wales Highways Framework (Lot 8).

 

It is estimated that the value of these works is £10m.
