🔥 What an afternoon! Huge thanks to everyone who came along to our CPD session on Fire Safety Works at the Arc Apartments.

Fire safety on a project of this scale is a seriously complex beast — but somehow our guest experts from RMI Architects, Tenmat, and Vulcan Cladding Systems made it feel genuinely manageable. You took what could have been a very dry, very technical subject and turned it into something everyone in the room actually understood (and enjoyed!). That's a skill in itself, so thank you 🙏

It was brilliant to see so much of Northern Ireland's Building Control community turn out for it too — great to host colleagues from:

🏢 Ards and North Down Borough Council

🏢 Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council

🏢 Belfast City Council

🏢 Fermanagh & Omagh District Council

🏢 Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council

🏢 Newry, Mourne and Down District Council

🏢 Northern Ireland Housing Executive

Sessions like this are exactly why we love hosting them — a room full of people leaving with a bit more clarity, a few myths busted, and (hopefully) a decent cup of tea inside them. The Arc Apartments project is no small undertaking, and getting to demystify the fire safety works with the people who matter most made for a great few hours.

Thanks again to everyone who gave up their time — see you at the next one! 👋

A huge thank you to Ciarán Fox, the The Royal Society of Ulster Architects, and Professor Joan McCoy McCoy of White Ink Architects for delivering such an important CPD session on the Building Safety Act as its implementation continues to evolve in Northern Ireland.

The session reinforced the critical importance of competence, compliance, and accountability across the construction sector—principles that are central to the successful delivery of higher-risk residential buildings.

Thanks also to James Eyre of Titanic Quarter, Stephen Miskelly of RMI Architects, and Stephen McGuigan MSc, MCIOB, PMP McGuigan of FLYNN (Maurice Flynn & Sons Ltd) for sharing practical insights from our ongoing work at ARC Apartments, one of the largest and most significant Building Safety projects currently being delivered in Northern Ireland. The project is setting new benchmarks for compliance, resident safety, quality assurance, and collaborative working, demonstrating how clients, designers, and contractors can work together to deliver safer buildings and meet emerging regulatory requirements.

We are incredibly proud of the entire project team and the professionalism, competence, and commitment they continue to demonstrate as we deliver this landmark scheme and help shape the future of building safety in Northern Ireland.

As the industry adapts to a new era of building safety, projects such as ARC Apartments provide a real-world example of how competence, compliance and collaboration are essential to delivering safer homes and better outcomes for residents.

🔥☀️ Team BBQ 2026 – Official Incident Report ☀️🔥

This afternoon's Health & Safety review identified four key risks:
• Direct sunlight
• Approximately 47 litres of ketchup
• An industrial quantity of burgers and sausages
• Deano attempting to personally feed the entire workforce

Nothing says staff appreciation quite like gathering the team in a gravel yard beside the Harland & Wolff cranes on one of the hottest days of the year and convincing ourselves it's a wellness initiative.

While most of the workforce formed an orderly queue stretching halfway across Titanic Quarter, our BBQ crew bravely stood over a grill already operating at temperatures usually associated with metal fabrication. Despite battling smoke, heat, and relentless demands for "just one more burger", they somehow kept the production line moving.

Great food, plenty of laughs, cold drinks, and a chance for colleagues from sites, offices and projects across the business to catch up away from deadlines and day-to-day pressures.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along, and especially to the BBQ team who willingly stood inches from an open flame in mid-20’s heat so the rest of us could enjoy a break.

Outcome achieved: 100% burger delivery, zero food waste, excellent stakeholder engagement, and a fire strategy that would absolutely not pass Building Control.

🎉 Two weeks ago, 15 heroes raised £15,000 by throwing themselves off a 90-foot cliff! 🎉

On 20th June, joined a group of incredible fundraisers to take on the Little Heroes Fairhead Abseil Challenge in support of the children and families who depend on Belfast’s Royal Hospital for Sick Children.

We’ll admit it — standing at the edge of a 90-foot cliff was terrifying. But it was a small challenge compared to the courage shown every day by seriously ill children and the families who stand beside them.

Together, 15 brave participants raised an amazing £15,000 to support the vital work of Little Heroes, helping to make a difference for young patients and their families when they need it most. 💙

A huge thank you to everyone who donated, supported, encouraged, and took part. Your generosity will have a lasting impact.

Because when a child needs care, every little hero deserves a community behind them.

💙👏🧗‍♂️

🏆 Delighted to share that hashtag has been announced as a Finalist in the Construction Employers Federation (CEF) Construction Industry Awards for not one, but two outstanding projects – the Hilden & Lambeg Sluice Gates Replacement Scheme and the Arc Apartments Remediation Project.
These high-profile projects presented very different challenges, but both demanded the same commitment to excellence, collaboration, and problem-solving that defines our team.
From complex engineering works at Hilden & Lambeg to the sensitive remediation and restoration works at Arc Apartments, countless hours of planning, coordination, and hard work have gone on behind the scenes to achieve these milestones. Recognition like this is a testament to the dedication of our people, supply chain partners, clients, and stakeholders who work together to deliver successful outcomes.
