Fassa Bortolo finishes work on award-winning residential properties

Renowned Italian render manufacturer, Fassa Bortolo, has recently finished work on ‘Neyland’ a collection of residential properties developed by JG Hale Construction Ltd.

This project, which won the ‘LABC Best Social Housing Development’ Award, was specified in collaboration with Fassa’s National Specification Manager, Stephen Gore.

The former Neyland School development encompassed the construction of 33 residences over three phases, including eight one-bedroom flats, two bungalows, and a mix of two, three and four-bedroom homes.

Additionally, the development integrated car parking, landscaping, living wall retaining structures, drainage systems, and associated engineering for highways.

Our client, JG Hale Construction Ltd, sought a cost-effective design solution for the project. Fassa Bortolo worked closely with Tom Bevan, Construction Manager, to achieve this goal while ensuring the development remained visually appealing.

The products used in this project were carefully selected to meet the specific requirements of new developments. Fassa Bortolo’s system, designed with this purpose in mind, included an initial base coat of KC 1, followed by FX 526, a universal pigmented primer undercoat.

Additionally, Fassanet 160 mesh was incorporated to reinforce the structure, effectively reducing hairline cracking and enhancing overall durability.

The system was completed with PX 505, an acrylic siloxane finish, known for its excellent weather resistance and long-lasting protection against environmental elements.

The colours were specifically chosen by the team from Fassa’s 365 topcoat range. BT 04, EP 36 and LR 19 were selected for their harmonious blend and ability to complement the architectural aesthetics of the Neyland development.
