We understand how you've been eagerly anticipating an update regarding the completion date of your new home. We're truly disappointed to inform you that ARJ Construction, our Contractor, has informed us that they have entered administration.
In response to this unexpected development, we are currently assessing the outstanding work required to finalise construction and are seeking alternative solutions to ascertain any further delay. The Contractor has completed the core build of the works, and they were undertaking the final works following our independent fire safety consultant. These works are standard procedure and to ensure our buildings continually meet the highest building safety standards. We are also looking into the outstanding documents required to complete the Building Safety Registration process to enable us to occupations.
We understand this news may be frustrating, and we sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused. We are committed to expediting this process as much as possible and will provide a further update with a more concrete timeline as soon as we have a clearer picture. In the meantime, we are actively exploring all options to minimise the delay. We understand that each person’s circumstances will differ, and we would recommend that you also speak to your Solicitor if you require any further advice.
Thank you for your continued patience and understanding. We value your purchase and remain committed to delivering your new home as soon as possible.
Kind regards
Vikki
Director of Sales & Marketing
