New facelift for Ardrossan sheltered housing complex
James Frew has completed the refurbishment of George Aitken Court, a sheltered housing complex in Ardrossan, North Ayrshire.
Appointed by North Ayrshire Council, the contractor installed new wet rooms for the 22 self-contained apartments ensuring they are now fully accessible, and also upgarded works to the main lounge, the communal kitchen, toilets and guest / relatives accommodation.
The £650,000 contract also included a new energy efficient boiler plant and a purpose built store to accommodate disability scooters.
Work, which started in July 2016, has now been completed to convert the former warden’s flat into a bespoke design including large wet room fitted with ceiling mounted slide rail and hoist.
Roddy Frew, managing director, James Frew, said: “The work has greatly enhanced the facilities at George Aitken Court. The addition of new wet rooms, which are bigger and equipped with added features such as hand rails, will make daily living more manageable for residents.”
