Stuttle House
Latest update
To achieve an EWS B1 rating for your building, works will start to be carried out in early 2024. We’re currently planning what works need to be carried out with our contractors and consultants.
At the end of October 2023, our contractors will begin assessing the buildings to help with the planning and design. During this time, please be aware of overhead working and keep clear of any demarcation zones.
We will keep you updated as we progress. If you have any queries, please get in touch with our project manager, Ian Salvidge, via our customer service team.
