Welcome To Canary Taxis

One of the latest businesses to move onto the Rackheath Industrial Estate is Canary Taxis, who are now situated at Unit 18C on Wendover Road.

The premises were formally used by Lisa Angel, a business supplying a range of jewellery and gifts, which has now moved to Unit 17.

To adapt the unit to suit the requirements of Canary Taxis, new offices were constructed downstairs (the area was previously open plan) and a first floor office was built onto a mezzanine floor. Tilia also constructed a new workshop area and installed an additional staff toilet unit.

Vic Bond of Canary Taxis was very pleased with the finished unit and contacted Tilia expressing his appreciation. “May I sincerely thank everyone at Tilia for a really excellent job on 18C. I did not think when I saw the shell that Lisa Angel had vacated that it would turn out this well. The spec of the building is more than we had hoped for and delivered bang on time.”

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

Beccles Build Completed

Tilia Properties has recently completed construction of a new building for sports equipment supplier, Mark Harrod. This latest project is part of the Tilia Court development at Beccles Business Park, Suffolk, one of many sites on which Tilia offers commercial units to buy or lease.

The work commenced with the setting out of foundations for the new building, followed by extensive excavation work into blue clay, which proved to be extremely sticky. In fact one of the Tilia team was heard to comment, “I suddenly grew a couple of inches thanks to the amount of clay that built up on my work boots!”

Despite this minor obstacle work went according to schedule, resulting in an impressive, new, purpose-built unit for Mark Harrod.

Tilia Site Manager, Shaun Catterall was pleased with the way the build progressed and with the finished unit. He commented, “The team worked hard as usual, despite ground conditions being far from ideal, producing a unit that is completed to high standards. Well done to everyone concerned.”

Mark Harrod Limited supplies schools, colleges, local authorities, contractors and sports clubs with a wide range of high quality sports’ equipment and accessories. As one of the leading suppliers across the UK it was honoured to provide equipment for the London 2012 Olympic Games.

Expansion For Oyster Yachts At Wroxham

Tilia Properties is pleased to embark on a new expansion project for the long-established, much-acclaimed cruising yacht company, Oyster Yachts, at their recently acquired Wroxham facility.

Oyster Marine was founded in 1973 and in 2012 took over the Oyster Yacht division of EC Landamores, Wroxham, Norfolk, which had been responsible for fitting out Oyster yachts in the capacity of subcontractor for almost 40 years. The Wroxham site will focus on the production of smaller yachts, requiring expansion of the existing premises.

Tilia is now commencing work on the construction of additional build bays and a new, improved customer reception area. This represents a return visit to the site for Tilia, as back in November 2006, we carried out improvements for EC Landamores, combining three separate properties into one large unit, creating an ideal space for boat production.

We are extremely pleased to be working on this current, exciting project for such a prestigious company. Oyster is renowned for its high standards of quality, comfort and performance in yacht design and production.

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

Tilia Properties offer a wide range of purpose built business units for lease or purchase throughout Norfolk and Suffolk, all constructed to the highest standards of workmanship.
