Botleigh Grange Care Home - Hedge End

When it comes to residential care, people are looking for names that they can trust to provide a professional and responsive service, with that extra attention to detail that makes such a difference. And leading providers in the care industry expect those same high standards to be applied in the construction of their new care homes.

SC4 understands that the small details in design and construction can make a big difference to staff and residents once a building is in operation, and always works closely with clients to share its experience and provide innovative solutions.

In January 2020, SC4 Carpenters was awarded the contract for all Carpentry works for this high-end 68-bed care home in Hedge End, Hampshire, completing the project in 14 months.

You can view the finished project in this video from Highwood's facebook page:

Highwood was the principal contractor for this new-build scheme at Pavilion Road on the vast Botleigh Grange site in the Hampshire village of Hedge End. The project delivered a high-end 68-bed care home to provide an array of specialist care for the elderly, designed by W R Dunn architects and developed by Frontier Estates.

The two-storey care home incorporated a brick and timber-clad façade with large terraces on the first floor and two accommodation wings either side. The home has been designed to provide accommodation in excess of current Care Quality Commission (CQC) requirements, offering a multitude of residential day spaces that include café, hairdressers, lounges, dining rooms, private dining and a cinema. The home is also registered to offer residential, nursing and dementia care.

SC4 undertook all timber aspects of the build project, including: 

• external works, including the stunning decking and cladding

• roof, joists and floating floor
  
• first fix and second fix carpentry such as, skirting and staircases

SC4 have worked on numerous Care Homes over our 20 years in the industry. For more projects like this one see:
