Pagham, West Sussex.
The Honours Acre development in Pagham, West Sussex is a distinctive residential scheme that demonstrates the value of modern building techniques and attention to detail. With a mix of property types, the project delivers a diverse housing offering that caters to different lifestyles and preferences.
The scope of works covers drylining, tape and jointing, and insulation, all of which are essential elements in ensuring the long-term quality, comfort, and energy efficiency of the new homes. These works form the backbone of interior construction and finishing, contributing both to the performance of the building envelope and the aesthetic appeal of the interiors.
Drylining plays a central role in the project. By installing plasterboard wall and ceiling systems, the construction team has created durable, high-quality surfaces ready for finishing. Drylining also supports the installation of insulation systems, combining structural integrity with environmental performance.
The works also include tape and jointing, which ensures seamless finishes between plasterboards. This process removes visible joints and imperfections, producing smooth, uniform surfaces across all properties. These ready-to-decorate finishes are crucial in delivering a professional, polished result for homeowners.
Insulation is another critical element of Honours Acre. Thermal and acoustic insulation have been installed to improve the energy efficiency of each property, reduce heating and cooling costs, and enhance overall comfort for residents. By investing in robust insulation, the project not only meets but exceeds current building regulations and sustainability expectations.
The development consists of nine new-build properties. This includes a varied mix of four townhouses, four detached houses, and one bungalow, creating a balanced neighbourhood that offers a range of housing options. The diversity of property types ensures that the scheme appeals to different demographics, from families to downsizers.
The project was delivered on a 14-week programme, running from March 2022 to July 2022. The carefully managed schedule enabled efficient coordination of trades, ensuring that deadlines were met without compromising on quality. The delivery timeframe reflects a well-executed construction programme, balancing speed with precision.
Located in Pagham, West Sussex, Honours Acre benefits from a sought-after coastal setting. The area is well-known for its natural beauty and access to amenities, making it a highly desirable location for new homes. The development adds value to the local housing market by providing a thoughtful mix of high-quality residential units.
From the outset, the focus has been on craftsmanship and quality control. Each stage of drylining, tape and jointing, and insulation has been delivered by skilled tradespeople working to exacting standards. This ensures that the final product meets the expectations of both the client and future homeowners.
The combination of property types also required a flexible construction approach. Townhouses demanded efficient use of vertical space, detached houses required a balance of internal layout and external design, while the bungalow offered a more accessible single-storey option. The internal works were tailored to meet the needs of each type, while maintaining consistency in quality across the development.
The insulation strategy, in particular, reflects the project’s commitment to energy efficiency and sustainability. By reducing heat loss, lowering energy usage, and improving acoustic performance, the insulation systems contribute significantly to the long-term comfort and value of the homes.
