Connaught move proves lucrative for Lovell
A fortnight after it acquired an interest in the majority of Connaught Partnerships’ contracts and related assets, Tamworth-based affordable housing provider Lovell has secured 42 contract wins.
The affordable housing arm of the Morgan Sindall group said that it had made “agreements in principle” with 42 local authority and housing association clients for the transfer of contracts to the company. The company added that more contracts are expected to follow this week.
Lovell said that the spate of deals will allow the company to expand its planned and response maintenance business, extend its geographical coverage and increase its client base.
Stewart Davenport, Lovell’s managing director, said: “We are pleased to have secured so many partnerships so quickly and are delighted with the way clients have responded. Our prompt action has enabled us to provide customers with essential maintenance services with minimal disruption.”
