Tradeglaze And Wilcox Homes Project Shortlisted For ‘Residential Project Of The Year’ In The 2023 Construction And Property Awards

Lincoln-based fabricator and installer of bespoke PVCu and aluminium double glazing products Tradeglaze are pleased to share that their collaboration with Lincolnshire developer Wilcox Homes, a new homes development on Electric Station Road in Sleaford, has been shortlisted for the prestigious Greater Lincolnshire Construction and Property Awards. Building houses and commercial properties in the county for more than 20 years, the family-owned Wilcox Homes rapidly expanded its foot hold in the construction market in the recent years. The developer are renowned for their ethos of using local businesses for their builds helping to support suppliers and trades people alike.

The Electric Station Road project’s objective was to help address the shortage of starter homes in Sleaford town centre in a price bracket that is affordable to the younger generation. This development has transformed a run down, derelict brown field site which housed the former Electricity sub-station on Electric Station Road, Sleaford, to six starter homes, designed and built using latest environmental improvements and resulting in superior energy efficiency.

This much welcomed news follows on this year’s success of Tradeglaze in the 2022 Greater Lincolnshire Construction and Property Awards where the company earned the ‘Product Supplier of the Year’ award, having accelerated their growth plans and invested several six figure sums in the business.

The two companies have been working together for more than a decade building exceptional new homes in beautiful Lincolnshire locations. Currently, Wilcox Homes and Tradeglaze are collaborating on a new homes development site ‘Homestead Fields’, a prestigious development of 329 properties in the sough-after village of Metheringham, 8 miles south of the cathedral City of Lincoln. The developer will be hosting a Show Home Grand Opening on Saturday 17th December, showcasing the stylish 3 bedroom detached home “The Hampton”.

Brian Pearson, Senior Accounts Manager at Tradeglaze said: “We have been supplying quality windows and doors to Wilcox Homes projects for many years, for new build homes as well as commercial projects. To have one of our projects shortlisted for the Greater Lincolnshire Construction and Property Awards is such brilliant news. It’s not an easy time for UK businesses at the moment and local companies need to support each other. Wilcox Homes employ local trades wherever they can and we are very proud to supply our products to their beautiful homes. They have certainly earned their place on the shortlist and we wish them best of luck at the awards ceremony.”

Wilcox Homes Director Ollie Wilcox says: “We are delighted, and overwhelmed, to hear that we have been made finalists in the 2023 Greater Lincolnshire Construction and Property Awards. All the hard work from everyone on the ground, to the comfortable offices, is being recognised for the quality of each and every one of them. Well done team!”

“Lincolnshire is a county like no other, with some truly spectacular locations. Our aim is to build exceptional quality, high specification properties, surrounded by rich history and beautiful nature. Our new Homestead Fields site has been thriving with activity for more than a year. We are very proud to be opening our first Show Home now and cannot wait for your Grand Opening to show visitors every detail of our beautiful homes.”

The Showhome will open its doors at 10:00 AM and will be then open over the Christmas period for guests to come and view this attractive property. To find out more visit facebook.com/wilcoxhomes.net.
