Irish Construction Excellence Award Winners

We are delighted to have picked up an award at this year’s ICE Awards in the Residential category. Formerly the headquarters of EG Pettit Engineering, the Springville House commercial building had been vacant since 2012 and had fallen into disrepair. Originally built in the 1970s, the decaying three-storey over basement structure boasted a prime urban location but was badly in need of redevelopment. Now, thanks to Cork City Council’s innovative ‘Rightsizing’ program, it has been completely transformed and is now home to 35 modern A-rated residential units comprising of 4 one-bedroom townhouses, 18 one-bedroom apartments and 13 two-bedroom apartments.

By surpassing the initial brief and embracing innovation, sustainability, collaborative practices, and meticulous quality control, our team designed, and constructed a project that not only met the client’s needs but also created enduring value for all stakeholders involved. This demonstration of construction excellence reflects our commitment to exceeding expectations and delivering superior outcomes on all projects we undertake. Well done to the entire team on this fantastic achievement.
