CLIENT: Peel Ports/ ECOCEM
SERVICE: Civil engineering/Import Terminal, Silos and Substation
VALUE: £1.5 Million
The Brief
Following a detailed tender process, Moorcroft was contracted to construct a silo with weighbridge, office, substation and infrastructure connected to the dock system for the import of cement.
The project was commissioned by ECOCEM as a joint venture between itself and Peel Ports. As the principal contractor, Moorcroft took responsibility for project management with responsibility for service delivery, governance, and health and safety.
The Challenges
Working within the tight confines of a fully operational dock system, Moorcroft took responsibility for the management of a number of specialist subcontractors, including those from overseas.
Due to the ground conditions and the sub surface dock walls, Moorcroft worked closely with the clients and the design team to provide cost effective methods for piling and substructures to enable the project to progress.
Project delivery was time bound due to the pre-arranged arrival of ships into the terminal for the distribution of product.
The Outcome
Moorcroft delivered phase 1 of the project on time to an agreed budget, resulting in the commercial deadlines for the client being met.
As a result of the success of phase 1, Moorcroft was awarded phase 2 which involved the provision of an additional silo, base weighbridge and infrastructure.

When Unilever needed a 19th Century building converting, the global consumer goods brand came to Moorcroft.
The Challenges
The building was safely transformed from a tired, old, damp and unused premises into a state-of-the-art modern fit business centre. From the initial removal and replacement of the existing dilapidated concrete floors, to the exposing and renovation of the timber roof trusses, Moorcroft provided the complete refurbishment package for our client.
The Outcome
The building sported a full external makeover, slate roof and an ultra-modern internal medical fit-out including surgeries, laboratories, rehabilitation centre, a gymnasium and IPS washroom facilities. The project was delivered on time and on budget.
Residential

CLIENT: Private Developer
SERVICE: Building
VALUE: £1 Million +
The Brief
Moorcroft was chosen to develop existing unoccupied farm buildings and convert them into four 3-storey luxury homes. The development included external landscaping and Section 278 works for the entrance to the development. The project was delivered under CDM Regulations 2015.
The Challenges
The existing buildings required partial demolition and technical challenges including engineered solutions in keeping to strict conditions of planning for the building and the environment and the high technical specification including state-of-the-art technology demanded of the build.
The Outcome
This was a real team effort. Our own skilled in-house workforce collaborated closely with the client as well as specialist contractors, designers and structural engineers to deliver the luxury bespoke homes situated in landscaped grounds complementing and enhancing the local area.
