Chung Hok House

Sovini Construction were contracted by registered social landlord Pine Court Housing Association to enact major refurbishment works on Chung Hok House, a sheltered scheme within the heart of Liverpool City Centre. The site has 38 one and two bedroom flats of which two are adapted for the disabled. Each flat has central heating, double glazing, a door entry system and an emergency pull cord alarm.

Communal facilities include lifts, three lounges, a communal kitchen catering for special events, a laundry facility, a specially adapted bathroom for those who receive assistance and a hairdressing salon.

These refurbishment works involved Sovini Construction working closely with Pine Court Housing Association to provide ‘Dementia Friendly’ standards to the interior refurbishments.

We also incorporated stylistic choices which referenced the community in the scheme that we were serving. Sovini Construction demonstrated this commitment by sourcing bespoke window frames, decorating the hallways and lounges with bright colours to create a familiar environment to help residents navigate their way around.

Sovini Construction reduced the time scales of works to ensure it was completed in time for Chinese New Year celebrations.
