BOILER HOUSE
Work: Civil Construction
Date: May - July 2018
Summerville Bros was single sourced by a local meat rending company to complete the civil and construction works for a new building to house 2x 100 tonne boiler units. Summerville Bros completed the predesigned foundations, slab works and provided a ‘design and build’ for the completed boiler house structure.
