New Building for Mark Harrod Limited


Tilia are currently constructing a new building for sports equipment supplier, Mark Harrod Limited, situated at Tilia Court on the Beccles Business Park, Suffolk.

Mark Harrod Limited is one of the leading suppliers of specialist sports equipment in the UK. The company supplies schools, colleges, local authorities, contractors and sports clubs throughout the country, with a wide range of high quality products and was honoured to supply equipment for the London 2012 Olympics.

Work commenced by setting out the foundations for the new building, followed by extensive excavation work into blue clay. All the foundation work went according to schedule, as did the substantial excavations for the stanchion bases.

However, the blue clay was extremely sticky, prompting one of the Tilia team to comment, “I suddenly grew a couple of inches thanks to the amount of clay that built up on my work boots!”

Once the initial work had been completed, the bolt boxes were installed and the concrete poured. The steel erection went smoothly and the block work and external brickwork was able to progress, prior to the placement of the concrete floor, along with the drainage connections and other external groundwork.

The project is proceeding well and further details of the build will be posted shortly

New Postprint Build At Snetterton


One of our latest projects, has been the construction of a new purpose-built unit for Postpost at Snetterton Business Park, Norfolk.

Founded in 1976, Postprint is a family owned business offering a range of high quality design, printing and finishing services, combining traditional values and comprehensive knowledge with the latest technology.

Following setting out of foundations for the new build and excavation work down to 1.8m, the bolt boxes were installed and the concrete poured.

The steel erection went smoothly allowing the cladding work to progress, prior to the placement of the concrete floor, along with the drainage connections and other external groundwork.

Maximising heat retention and minimising noise levels were key factors in the construction of the floors and internal walls. The ground floor slab consisted of 150mm of concrete laid on insulation, whilst the first floor was constructed using the Comflor 60 System, incorporating 190mm of reinforced concrete, supplied by Tata Steel.

Internal partition walls were erected using timber studwork, incorporating high levels of insulation following the low sound, high heat retention principles of the build.

Despite some early setbacks, the project made steady progress and machine installation has now been completed.

Site Manager, Shaun Catterall, is very pleased with the way in which the work has progressed, stating, “The team from Tilia have worked very hard on this purpose-built unit for Postprint, overcoming some early problems to complete this latest build. We are about to finish the outside tarmac and paving, ready for hand over to Postprint shortly.”

Tilia are able to offer a wide range of purpose-built business units for lease or purchase throughout Norfolk and Suffolk.

Tilia Directory

At Tilia Properties we are very enthusiastic about our latest project - The Tilia Directory.

We will constantly be adding new companies to the directory, with entries consisting of company name, address, contact details and description of business, together with a link to the company’s own website.

You can also view industrial properties to rent or buy and catch up with the news surrounding Norfolk's businesses and industrial estates.

An exercise in bespoke construction.


CIM Signs and Graphics situated at 9 Mackintosh Road, Rackheath Industrial Estate, approached Tilia to work on a project to increase their office space, create a meeting room and install a viewing area for clients to be able to watch vehicles having liveries applied.

The purpose-built, modern building was already making good use of the existing space, but there was insufficient room on the design floor to accommodate an additional office and meeting room to allow more privacy. Tilia’s solution? The creation of a mezzanine floor housing the required office and meeting room, whilst offering a view of the vehicle work area below.

Mark Baker, Company Director of CIM, was extremely pleased with the result, “It has completely transformed the design floor of the company, allowing privacy with clients when required.”
