The works at Phoenix House (later renamed TRS Apartments) commenced in January 2011. The project included the demolition, strip-out, and removal of external façades to transform a seven-storey concrete-framed building with a basement car park.
The scheme was subsequently extended at ground floor level, along with the construction of a new five-storey extension to create 149 luxury apartments and a ground floor library facility for community use.
Following the Grenfell tragedy, Vascroft was reappointed in 2017 to deliver façade rectification works, upgrading and replacing the existing cladding to meet enhanced safety standards.
We take pride in ensuring the building remains fully compliant with current regulations and continues to meet the client’s evolving requirements.

Services
Vascroft were a pleasure to work with during the cladding replacement project at TRS Apartments and I would have no hesitation in recommending them. The staff were courteous, polite and very professional and ran efficient, informative and effective routine meetings. Furthermore, the project was brought in on time and on budget – no mean feat considering the pandemic came in the middle of it.
