Cheadle Care Home
Cheadle, Greater Manchester – 70 Bed Care Home for Newcare (2020)
Main Contractor: McGoff Construction Limited
Specialist Contractor: Panacea Buildings Systems
Contract Value: £1,060,000
Project Overview
Newcare commissioned the development of a modern 70-bed care home in Cheadle, Greater Manchester. The project required an efficient structural approach combined with adaptability to address site-specific constraints, particularly around party wall limitations.
Scope of Works
The project involved the construction of a 3-storey care home, completed using a hybrid of rapid Metframe-style construction techniques and traditional methods where required. Key elements included:
Full structural build completed within 12 weeks
Timber trussed roof installation
Comprehensive drylining package, including partitions and ceilings
Integration of traditional construction methods in restricted party wall areas
Outcome
-
The completed 70-bed care home offers Newcare a high-quality, durable, and functionally efficient facility delivered within a tight programme. Despite the additional complexity introduced by party wall constraints, Panacea Building Systems successfully integrated both traditional and accelerated construction methods to achieve a seamless final result.
