Llanelli firm Morganstone wins award for project in Port Talbot

The award-winning South Wales construction firm Morganstone Ltd has just picked up another prize.

The firm has won a prestigious Building Control Award for its project at The Mews in Port Talbot.

“It’s another feather in our cap,” said Morganstone managing director Ian Morgan.

“The Mews development is a very attractive scheme – and that is backed up by the fact that the homes there have quickly sold out.

“The affordable homes were developed by Pennant Homes and are located on the site of the old Port Talbot Hospital.

“The site team from Morganstone thoroughly enjoyed working with Pennant Homes on the project and the Building Control Award is the icing on the cake for us as a firm.”

The award was presented when the cream of the construction industry in Neath Port Talbot gathered at The Towers Hotel for a special ceremony.

This year was the ninth year for Neath Port Talbot Borough Council to host the awards.

The leader of the council, Councillor Ali Thomas was in attendance to present certificates and commemorative plaques to the successful builders and contractors.

The winners of each category will now represent Neath Port Talbot at the South Wales Regional Awards.

Councillor Thomas said: “It is a great achievement for everyone who attended to be nominated for these awards and it all goes to demonstrate their commitment to produce quality buildings for the citizens of Neath Port Talbot.”

Paul Davis, Building Control Manager for the council, said: “The awards serve to promote the Building Control service provided by the authority and encourage high standards of construction.”

The award was collected on behalf of Morganstone by Chris Weaver, site manager for the project.
