CCG Completes Works On Behalf Of Almond Housing Association

CCG (Scotland) has successfully completed its latest planned-maintenance contract with Almond Housing Association using their new range of high-performance windows.

Working with leading polymer supplier REHAU UK, CCG invested in a new, bespoke factory located at their headquarters in Glasgow in 2020 to create a new range of enhanced window styles and door sets using PVCu as the primary material.

A form of thermoplastic, PVCu is a versatile and durable material that does not suffer from deterioration, colour fading, or dry rot and, as result, requires less long-term maintenance with a lifespan of over 40 years.

Up to 70 properties in Livingston have received the upgrades as part of the full supply and installation contract with CCG Manufacturing and the Group's planned maintenance division, Asset Management, combining to complete the Year 1 work stream within a period of just ten weeks.

CCG Asset Management Manager, Jim Cunningham, said: "CCG's capabilities as a one-stop shop for window and door renewals allow us to generate best value for clients with a reliable, UK-based infrastructure complemented by streamlined quality control and project management disciplines that are undertaken at every stage of our manufacturing and installation processes.

"The new PVCu product range will generate long-term added value for Almond HA and their tenants are given the reduced maintenance required over the product's lifetime as well as improved energy performance, security, and safety features.

"Our contracts team undertook the contract diligently within a period of just 10 weeks and on behalf of CCG, I thank Almond HA for bringing us on board and providing support throughout the works programme. We look forward to working with the association again in the near future."

CCG has now embarked on a second year of window renewals with Almond HA that will be undertaken over the course of this summer.
