Testimonials
"The Police HQ was a highly technical building to construct.
Access from the outset was challenging since the formation level was some 5m down and adjacent to the busy main road. This also meant that deliveries and cranage needed to be well organised.
The reinforced concrete frame was not a standard one and included some large complex pours and reinforcement patterns.
ROK-Regal deployed a really good formwork system for the slab soffit which was quick and safe to erect. This saved a lot of time.
The building was delivered as planned and slightly early at that. This reflects ROK-Regal's detailed programming and whole team effort." -
Testimonials
ROK, alongside architects Axis Mason and engineers Ross Gower Associates, were appointed under a design and build contract for the delivery of our Five Oaks Trade Park scheme.
This was a complex project and required careful planning and phasing to allow the operators to hit their targeted opening dates. Despite the immense challenges posed by COVID restrictions and disruptions in the supply chain, ROK and their design and build team provided innovative solutions that enabled us to achieve our goals.
Throughout the process, we collaborated closely with their highly experienced people, who consistently exhibited a rare "can do" attitude and maintained a high level of professionalism. Working with ROK was an absolute pleasure from beginning to end.
The final outcome has left both us and our tenants delighted, and we look forward to working with the ROK team on future projects.
