Reliance on Trebles expertise to specify pump sets and ancillary equipment required where there was limited technical information available for older buildings in the redevelopment. Product sourced and delivered on time to fit with construction schedule….

Pump & Pressurisation Set Solutions

The Paradise Circus development, at the heart of Birmingham, is Birmingham’s largest development in a generation – with an estimated total cost of £700m.

The nature of the size of the development, plus its location in central Birmingham, meant that the demolishment for new building construction had to be done in stages. BAM Construction commissioned JS Wright to manage the building services side of the demolition and construction job.

“The job was complex and time critical. Any days lost in development would cost the overall project budget thousands of pounds.

We’ve worked with Trebles for over 20 years now, so the length of our working relationship goes some way to highlight how much we trust them in this specialised area. We knew roughly the type of pump sets and boosters we required – however the technical specifications for the buildings remaining in place was very limited, so we relied on Trebles expertise to ensure the right products were sourced for each building.”

Steve Morris, Area Manager for Trebles adds,

“This job was almost like a game of chess. The contractors had to establish the order buildings were to be demolished, whilst we helped ensure the buildings still standing still received the levels of building services they required – with a number of them being high-rise.

We went to site numerous times throughout this project to ensure each requirement was fully specified and worked hand-in-hand with the JS Wright Engineers.
To help with installation speed on site, both of our boosters were dispatched fully commissioned, ready for JS Wright to install.”

The Paradise Circuit development is due for completion in 2028 – With Trebles working as part of the project team to redevelop the heart of Birmingham’s Cultural and business hub.
