CCG Group's planned maintenance division, CCG Asset Management, has announced the successful completion of a third phase of kitchen upgrades for tenants of East Lothian Council in Musselburgh, Tranent, Haddington, Prestonpans and North Berwick.

The £965,000 works package involved the replacement of cabinets and worktops as well as associated decorative and electrical upgrades to 229 households.

The third of three phases procured via the SPA (Scottish Procurement Alliance), over 361 households have benefitted from the planned maintenance workstream since 2021.

Jim Cunningham, Divisional Manager of Asset Management said:

"Quality of workmanship, speed and efficiency are key drivers to undertaking works of this nature with minimal intrusion on the occupier and our teams, including our site staff and dedicated Tenant Liaison Officers, worked ever so well over the course of the programme and I thank them for their efforts.
