Telford Homes has published its latest trading update recording increased turnover amid a series of losses.
“In May 2022, the Group and company signed the Building Safety Pledge to fund or remediate critical fire safety works on buildings over 11 metres in England […] it has developed over the past 30 years,” wrote the Group.
“The amounts provided reflect the current best estimate of the cost of works required. However, this estimate may be updated as work progresses or as government legislation and regulations evolve.”
Adding: “The goal is to continue to deliver new homes, to help address the chronic shortage in London, focusing particularly on the growing Build to Rent market.”
