20 Mint Walk
Croydon, London
20 Mint Walk is a seven-storey, refurbished
residential apartment complex. Facade
Replacement was completed to ensure the
building was compliant and for the building
owner and residents to achieve an EWS1 form.
The newer built top three 昀氀oors had existing
façade which was not compliant with the latest
building regulations due to missing vertical
昀椀re barriers and use of expanded polystyrene
insulation (EPS) in the rendered façade at level
5 and non-昀椀re-compliant Aluminium Composite
Material (ACM) with Celotex Insulation in levels
6 and 7. To achieve compliance:
+ Insulation backed render removed and
昀椀tted new 昀椀re compliant external wall
insulation —104m²
glazing panels replaced, 155 linear meters
of 昀椀re barrier.
Elliott Group management and staff were
involved from tender to handover. The aim of
these construction works was for the building
owner and residents to achieve an EWS1 form.
All 昀椀re barriers 昀椀tted were photographed and
recorded on Procore which was used as a
handover document and O&M 昀椀le at completion
stage. The scaffolding was designed by our
scaffolding subcontractor and cross-checked
by our independent scaffolding structural
engineer before being certi昀椀ed with a temporary
works category three check certi昀椀cate.
