Graham selected for £28 million Blashford Tower project

4 Dec 23

Graham has been selected to deliver major works at Blashford Tower, a high-rise residential building on the Chalcots Estate in the London Borough of Camden.

The project, which is now on site, will encompass a wide range of works designed to achieve fire safety compliance and improve energy performance.

Blashford Tower is a 19-story residential building comprising 73 flats. It occupies a significant position within the Chalcots Estate, which dates to the late 1960s. One of the central aspects of the project is the replacement of the current windows and installing new cladding with solid aluminium panels featuring a natural anodised finish.

Rob Joyce, Graham Regional Director, said: “This project will play a crucial role in bringing Blashford Tower up to modern standards and compliance with safety regulations. We look forward to working collaboratively with our project partners and stakeholders to restore the tower for the benefit of its residents and the wider community.”

Astrid Kjellberg-Obst, Project Director at Camden Council, said: “We are delighted to be working with Graham to deliver a high-quality building envelope refurbishment for our Blashford residents, ensuring fire safety, improved insulation, and ventilation as well as wellbeing for current and future residents.”
