Overslade House
OVERSLADE HOUSE
Social Housing Accommodation
A challenging refurbishment in Northampton required the Frameclad team’s expertise, resilience and adaptability to deliver on 40 new family apartments. Deploying their technical know-how, Frameclad designed, engineered, manufactured and supplied the light steel framing solutions, ensuring the project was completed to a high standard, on time and aligned to the client vision.
To combat the shortage of family housing in the well-connected Northampton area, former single persons’ accommodation block was chosen for regeneration and redevelopment by Northampton Homes. In need of an extensive transformation, the project demanded technical know-how and expertise to navigate challenges and deliver on the requirements of this development.

Case Studies
Waitrose
This uniquely shaped building designed by B&R Architects is on the site of the former Bellerby Theatre in Guildford. Main Contractor Bowmer & Kirkland were tasked with building a new Waitrose food store on the ground floor with 30 apartments and 18 affordable homes on the tapering floors above. Several of these enjoyed roof gardens which are sheltered by high parapet walls constructed from Frameclad SFS.
Windsor House
In the heart of contemporary Sutton, surrounded by immense culture and diversity, we are delighted to introduce striking new apartments providing the brightest and lightest homes available on a Shared Ownership Scheme. Windsor House is the newest development undertaken by Optivo, giving potential residents the opportunity to live in the desirable and sought after Borough of Sutton.
