SME builder and consultant Helix Group is construction manager for Berkshire developer Ressance to complete 22 new homes at two projects in Newbury and Shiplake.
Helix Group will step in to finish 14 two-bedroom apartments on Bartholomew Street, Newbury and will also start on site in September with eight new homes for sale at Mount Ida, Shiplake. The eight homes will be a mix of four and three-bedrooms and will be built from timber frame – a modern method of environmentally friendly construction.
Duncan Crook, Managing Director at Ressance, said: “As customer testimonials show, Ressance has built a reputation for delivering the highest-standard new homes that offer great value. This has been achieved through careful design and attention to detail. All of this effort is transformed into an end product through the construction process, which requires specialist knowledge and a depth of experience.
“We are delighted to have formed a relationship in which Helix Group fulfils the crucial role of construction manager, as an integral part of our team. Helix Group was appointed because they have an excellent track record and even before formal selection presented a fresh, open approach and added real value to the process.”

Nic Davies, Managing Director at Helix Group, said: “It is really exciting to be able to support Ressance – another local Berkshire business – on these two projects, providing a range of much-needed housing in the Thames Valley.
“Helix Group is construction manager on both developments, which ensures Ressance receives good-value, reliable suppliers and a high-quality finish with top drawer customer service throughout.”
This is the latest highlight for Helix Group, as its focus on supporting its people has allowed it to safely return to work post-lockdown and hit the ground running – such as at Brackley and at Garsington.
Other recent contract wins include an affordable housebuilding framework for three London housing associations and places on frameworks with other large housing associations including Notting Hill Genesis and Places for People.
