River Clyde Homes (‘RCH’) is a Registered Social Landlord responsible for the management of circa 6 000 homes and are currently embarking on a multi-million pound project to revitalise the Broomhill Area of Greenock. This is the biggest investment project River Clyde Homes have committed to in our history.
Broomhill is a high density area of 667 properties (60 to be demolished) that sits close to Greenock town centre. At its heart are three multi-storey blocks, the look of which will have their appearance altered to stunning effect using a high specification, ultra-modern rain screen system to create a dramatic new facade.

The area requires a radical and substantial investment in new services to support customers and capital investment to produce homes that are fit for the 21^st century. A three year plan will see all the properties in the area refurbished both externally and internally and around 22 new homes will be built, alongside a new purpose built office for River Clyde Homes’ staff.

In line with RCH’s Green Strategy, an energy efficient district heating system will be installed that uses eco fuel and result in greatly reduced heating costs to combat fuel poverty and reduce carbon emissions. Significant environmental improvements will radically alter and redefine the landscape to create greener areas and improve security, something local residents are concerned about.
This is a radical and exciting project and RCH are looking to employ a suitably experienced and competent Quantity Surveying firm to assist in minimising the costs of the project and enhancing value for money; whilst still achieving the required standards and quality that our tenants deserve.
Further detail regarding the scope of works will be provided at the tendering stage.
