Development Mixed Use, Umhlanga Ridge

WEST PALM

SERVICES AND OUTCOME
This high-rise project was built during the "construction boom" where construction prices became inflated & project viabilities were placed at risk. Initially tender prices on this project were unrealistically high, but once the market realised that Key Projects had the capability, capacity & skill to build the project themselves, the pricing became more realistic.

Certain concrete elements on one of the levels failed due to contaminated concrete received from a readymix plant. An innovative engineering solution ensured that the program was not affected.

This development was one of the few projects in Durban to finish on time during a period of sustained inclement weather delays.

`Key Projects played a vital role from beginning to end in ensuring the success of this project. They went way beyond their brief and never left any stone unturned. I do mean this!` Dave Williams-Jones - FWJK Quantity Surveyors
