Mike Davis, chairman of Chandler Property Investment, and Darren Marshall, director at Lumsdon Wood Partnership explain the benefits of working with Structural Warranty Insurance company Advantage Home Construction Insurance (AHCI) at the Forest Gate Lytham development
The video opens with Mike Davis, chairman of Chandler Property Development, the developer of the Forest Gate Lytham project.
“Previously, Forest Gate was the site of an old public house, which was falling into disrepair”, explains Davis.
“It was derelict when we bought the site and we gained permission for the new apartments and the three converted properties.
“I’d worked in the area previously, so I knew the site. And the fact that I live only 2 miles from the site put me in a good position to understand the site and its surroundings.”
Davis and his project team researched AHCI, who had worked with the company previously.
AHCI receives a 5 out of 5 rating for work with Forest Gate Lytham development
“I’m delighted, it’s been a very much a can-do attitude. There’s always somebody on the end of a phone. I would definitely rate it a five out of five.”
Next, Darren Marshall, director at Lumsdon Wood Partnership, explains his experience working with AHCI.
“I’m Darren Marshall. I’m a director at Lumsdon Wood Partnership. We’re a firm of construction cost consultants, project managers, and principal designers.
“I’ve been in the industry for over 35 years now and have worked at Lumsdon Wood Partnership all that time. We’ve done a vast array of projects, including commercial, residential, and hospital-type work, right across the board.
“We came in contact with AHCI through one of our guys who was working on the projects.
“The experience has been a breath of fresh air. The approach is really proactive, and very friendly, and there is always someone at the end of the phone. We certainly recommend Advantage going forward and certainly look to use them on other projects as well.”
