Birmingham-based The Construction Consultants (TCC) has been appointed as project managers, quantity surveyors and employers agents to oversee the £5m restoration of a local historic building for developer ETME Group.
The Grade II-listed Derwent Works pressings and stampings building in Constitution Hill in the Jewellery Quarter had fallen into disrepair but will now be transformed into apartments and retail units.
The factory was built in the late 19th century by Taylor & Challen, a company famous worldwide for producing a wide range of pressings from coins to industrial machinery. The company moved out of the building in the 1970s.
The development includes 32 luxury apartments with four ground floor retail units. It includes rooftop extensions and a new energy efficient roofing system to protect against the effects of weather, UV light and ozone.
The project is due for completion later this year. TCC has been involved since the initial project planning stage.
TCC co-founder and director Sandeep Sunner said, “We are delighted to have been appointed to this important heritage project to breath new life into a previously neglected listed building. The project is in a tightly confined urban space and requires a high degree of coordination and teamwork.”
