In 2022-2023, we partnered with Warrington Housing Association to upgrade the kitchens and electrics in 25 properties at Lyon Court, a residential home for elderly and vulnerable tenants. Despite the challenges posed by limited space and the need to ensure tenant safety, we successfully completed the project within the tender price of approximately £350,000. Our careful planning  and daily communication with WHA and the residents ensured a smooth execution, leading to additional work requests and positive feedback from all involved.

Challenges

  • Resident Sensitivity: Daily liaison with WHA and residents, particularly the elderly and vulnerable, required tactful communication and careful coordination to minimize disruption.
  • Health and Safety: Maintaining stringent health and safety protocols to safeguard against equipment hazards, material handling, and trip hazards posed ongoing challenges.
  • Logistics: Limited space within flats necessitated meticulous logistics planning to ensure efficient workflow and minimise impact on residents’ daily lives.
  • Property Access: Outdated contact information and tenant availability complicated scheduling pre-installation surveys, requiring proactive communication strategies.

  • Budget Adherence: Completed within the tender price and adhered to the planned program of works, demonstrating our commitment to financial transparency and project management excellence.

What a great company to bring in to your home.arrived on time,was told what was to be done with the boiler. And after that the job was carried out with out fuss/mess. Acouple of great fitters, and very friendly office staff. All followed off by anice friendly inspection by a senior member of grant store. Will highly recommend this company for any work you need doing from the office staff upto the inspector who calls invited within 24hours. Many thanks.

Fantastic service from first contact to fitting. Call centre staff very informative, 1 simple form to complete then sign online. 1 week later boiler fitted. Surveyor and gas fitters very professional and everything cleaned up afterwards. Thanks.

I had Alex & Simon at my house. Hands down, they are the best workmen EVER, by miles. They arrive on time, are polite, super clean & tidy in their work & cleaning up afterwards. Spectacularly good work was carried out by them both. They clearly take pride in the quality of work they do & their cleanliness in people’s homes, which is sadly lacking for most trade's people today who just don’t care how shoddy their work is or have no respect for people’s property.

Had solar panels installed by Grant Store and the whole experience greatly exceeded expectations. The process was very smooth, from the booking, to the communication of the steps, through to execution. It's a 3 day process (actually 3 half days). The scaffolders, the roofers and the electricians all arrived as expected and just got on with the job and all of them were friendly and communicated well. I don't usually leave reviews but this level of service deserves recognition
