Lovelace House Delivered Early
🔔 Project Award Announcement | Ingress Park, Greenhithe 🔔
We are pleased to announce that R J O’Neill has been appointed by Crest Nicholson plc to deliver the Phase 1 external wall remediation works at Ingress Park, a modern residential development situated on the banks of the River Thames in Greenhithe.
Following a series of specialist fire-safety investigations, a programme of targeted remediation works has been commissioned to address defects within several external wall systems and to enhance overall compliance across the estate.
Our initial appointment covers Oarsman House and Darbyshire House, two residential apartment blocks ranging between 7–9 storeys in height, with a second phase of works to the remaining blocks to follow.
📅 Programme Update
Scaffolding installation to both Oarsman House and Darbyshire House commenced in December 2025, with remediation works scheduled to begin in mid-January 2026, once the scaffold installation has sufficiently progressed.
The works will be delivered across a fully occupied development, with residents and leaseholders remaining in situ throughout the 12-month programme. To minimise disruption, internal condition surveys are being coordinated via our digital QR-code booking system, allowing residents to select convenient appointment times.
Scope of Works – Oarsman & Darbyshire House:
✔️ Removal of existing render and EPS insulation
✔️ Installation of new insulation and A2-rated render system
✔️ Installation of cavity barriers within curtain walling systems
✔️ Installation of cavity barriers behind the external brick skin
✔️ Replacement of balcony decking throughout
This appointment reinforces R J O’Neill’s commitment to delivering complex, resident-focused fire safety remediation projects, prioritising safety, compliance, and clear communication.
We look forward to working collaboratively with all stakeholders to deliver a successful outcome.
