Newington Road & West Newington Place
Full strip and rebuild of masonry to an occupied tenement, including a value-engineered repair approach after opening-up revealed movement out of compression.
The challenge
Opening-up revealed that sections of masonry had moved out of compression, requiring the original repair assumptions to be reconsidered while the tenement remained occupied.
Restorex delivery
Restorex worked with the project team on a value-engineered response, including the full strip and rebuild of affected masonry and carefully sequenced access and protection.
Outcome
The revised solution addressed the discovered movement with a practical repair methodology while maintaining coordination around residents and the wider project.
