G&H Chosen To Deliver MEP Design And Build Package
Caddick Construction has chosen G&H to deliver a mechanical, electrical and public health (MEP) design and build package to Pudsey Sixth Form College in Leeds.
Scheduled to open at the start of the 2025/26 academic year, the new teaching block will cater for 600 higher education students studying A-Levels, vocational courses, and GCSEs. It will provide much-needed sixth form space for the increasing number of 16-18-year-olds in the city.
G&H's 20-strong team, including six apprentices, will commence work on the college in February, incorporating energy-saving features such as air-source heat pumps and photovoltaic (PV) panels to ensure the building achieves top marks in its BREEAM* sustainability compliance rating and its Building Regulations UK Part L (BRUKL) certificate.
In addition, G&H will provide heating, ventilation, air conditioning, public services, commercial kitchen services, and building management systems (BMS) to provide a comfortable environment for the students to thrive.
As well as Pudsey Sixth Form College, G&H is delivering two further MEP contracts for the Luminate Education Group. In collaboration with New Way, G&H is improving specialist music and performing arts university, Leeds Conservatoire, with the upgrade of 165 radiators and the lighting, refurbished air handling units, installing a chiller, distributing new pipework throughout the building, and updating the BMS.
In 2025 G&H, in partnership with Caddick Construction, will also commence work on Harrogate College, delivering a MEP design and build package for a new teaching block and workshop.
Mohammad Choudhary, project engineer, G&H said: "We have extensive experience in the education sector, so the Luminate Education Group projects align perfectly with our expertise. It will be a privilege to work alongside Caddick Construction to deliver the Pudsey Sixth Form College, providing a sustainable building that offers a safe and comfortable environment for young people from Leeds and the surrounding areas to prosper."
Steve Ford, managing director for Caddick Construction Yorkshire and North East, commented: "Delivering new school places - whether primary, secondary or further education - requires efficiency and value for money, both of which are made possible through a high-quality and local supply chain. Caddick holds a strong 40-year legacy in Yorkshire, and during this time we’ve surrounded ourselves with a dedicated and highly skilled network of regional subcontractors. We’re pleased to have G&H on board to support the delivery of the new Pudsey College for our valued client, Luminate Education Group."
