Development overview
Victoria Central is a new development of 217 luxurious one, two and three bedroom apartments spread across fourteen floors in the town of Southend-on-Sea, Essex.

“We were dealing with a limited site footprint at Victoria Central. UNipanel helped to reduce site waste and site storage, and delivered dry envelope faster, which enabled interior fitouts to happen sooner. The overall result was quicker handovers.” Jeremy Kealy, Site Manager

“In total, we were able to reduce the programme timescales by six months. This meant we could secure the use of Help to Buy, which was coming to an end, and we were able to save over £600,000 in preliminary costs alone.” Peter Gore, Group Operations Director, Weston Group Plc
