JMS Midlands are finalists in major property and construction awards

The JMS Midlands team are in the running to secure yet another award for their trophy cabinet. This time, they’re finalists in the Medium Residential Category at the 2022 ProCon awards. The ProCon Awards are the county’s biggest and most respected property and construction industry awards, and are considered a serious accolade by everyone in the trade.

The JMS team made the shortlist for their work on two luxury properties, Lancaster House and York House, in Orton on the Hill. For JMS Civils Production Director Bhavin Parmar, the success of this project rested on engineering sustainable, as well as stunning, homes.

“I’m ecstatic that the hard work the team, alongside that of Hayward Architects and Enviro Developments, is being recognised at the ProCon awards 2022. These are the biggest construction awards in Leicestershire. We approached every aspect of the design and construction with sustainability in mind, and supported the architects to bring their vision of green luxury to life.”

There are no mains drainage or open watercourses within the vicinity of the site, so alternative means of drainage had to be sought. JMS assisted in unlocking the site by designing an innovative system from Groundwater Dynamics which conveys water by pressure differentials to suitable ground at depth. This method was used to drain both the treated foul and surface water from the site.

Contemporary and spacious.

Each of the two properties sit on around 4,500 square feet of land, and have been built to maximise every bit of space. The lucky homeowners also get to enjoy a stunning view that takes in four counties, through large windows that reach high into the ceilings.

Bhav says:

“Our design and on-site support meant the final build represents the original brief, without compromise. The contemporary look complements the character of the village, with an interior that’s all about grandness, using materials like oak and glass. These are homes that enhance the local environment, and enhance the lives of the families who live there.”

JMS Midlands are delighted their work has been noticed by ProCon in a year filled with ambitious developments throughout the county.

Winners will be announced at a black-tie awards dinner and ceremony on Thursday 10th November at The King Power Stadium.
