Ropetackle, Shoreham

Ropetakle Shoreham by PMC Construction

The complex site bordered by a raised railway embankment, was set within a disused plot of land with derelict buildings, next to the river and close to the town centre.  The challenges of building within a flood plain also had to be incorporated into the design, therefore connecting to a new Environment Agency flood defence wall and existing coastal path.

The development also consists of retail units, riverfront café and gallery, and was built over multiple phases.

The Café

The riverfront cafe will provide both the new and existing residents with a focal meeting point with river views. An external seating terrace will provide an exciting destination with its direct connections to the river path back into the town centre.

Gallery

Connected to the cafe there will be a proposed gallery or flexible space for passable community use. This space may give the potential for local artists to exhibit their work in a riverside setting. Visitors can wander around exhibitions while enjoying a drink from the cafe.

Retail Unit

The community retail space at the entrance of the scheme will provide a convenience store to the locality as well as providing local employment.

I have worked with PMC on a number of projects. They are always responsive and accommodating to our needs. The whole PMC Team are extremely helpful, efficient and approachable. I have been very pleased with the level of service and quality of the homes they have built.

Claire Coxsell, Development Manager - Clarion Housing Group

Having worked with PMC on 4 projects now totalling near £20m over the past 3 years, I would be more than happy to work with them again on any future housing schemes that may arise. They have an excellent attitude towards partnering and working with the local supply chain and they bring a wealth of knowledge regarding affordable housing and modern methods of construction. I would also add that they have a lean management structure compared to national contractors which relates to schemes being more affordable, which is especially applicable for a local authority where price is an issue.

Adrian Legg, Property Development Project Manager - Portsmouth City Council

The Fruit & Vegetable Market project was the first time I have worked with PMC, and from day one they demonstrated a genuine commitment to work proactively with the whole project team, whilst maintaining focus on completing the task in hand. All of the staff are helpful, and they have become my go to local friendly Contractor.

Tom Primrose, Cost and Project Management – AECOM

I find PMC a really great firm to work with. Communication is very good – and they aim to produce a quality product, with a good after sale service.

Angela Simpson, Project Manager – VIVID

Having had the benefit of working closely with PMC Construction and Development Services Ltd across a range of new build and refurbishment schemes for over 10 years, I can affirm to their excellent all-round performance and delivery of projects. Their experience and knowledge of the construction industry and affordable housing sector pays dividends from conception of a project up until completion, offering great expertise in various methods of construction as well as invaluable foresight and anticipation to ever-changing building standards and requirements. PMC Construction and Development Services consistently provide an unrivalled, pro-active approach towards projects and maintain a very thorough, competent and efficient service not just at site level but to all round project management.
