McCrory Construction is proud to confirm that its works have officially commenced on the Therme Manchester Scheme, marking another significant milestone in our expanding project portfolio and strengthening our presence in Manchester. As a leading Manchester construction company, securing this construction contract represents an exciting opportunity to contribute to one of the UK’s most ambitious large-scale wellness facilities.
Supporting a Landmark Manchester Development
The Therme spa development will become a major wellbeing resort Manchester destination. As part of this high profile Manchester regeneration project, McCrory Construction is delivering two substations that will power the wider resort and enable incoming service providers to complete their works. Although infrastructure-focused, this package plays a critical role in the success of the overall development and demonstrates our capability in delivering complex structural and civil engineering works.
Construction Contract Secured with Sir Robert McAlpine
A key element of this project is the opportunity to work alongside Sir Robert McAlpine, one of the UK’s most respected main contractors.
This six-month programme of commercial construction works includes:
- Groundworks and civil engineering works
- Reinforced concrete frame
- Brickwork and blockwork
- Secondary steelwork
- Render
- Access scaffolding
- Roofing systems
- Aluminium louvres and doors
Operating as a fully integrated specialist construction contractor, we will deliver the works through a coordinated blend of in house teams and trusted partners.
Building on a Strong Manchester Track Record
The Therme Manchester project builds upon our involvement in major Manchester construction projects, including works at Manchester Town Hall and the Terminal 2 Transformation at Manchester Airport.
This latest strategic project win reflects continued growth within the North West construction sector and reinforces our ability to deliver complex construction schemes within live and high-profile environments.
As Paul McCrory, Managing Director, explains:
“This is a fantastic project for McCrory Construction and one we’re incredibly proud to be involved in. Over the past few years, we’ve played a significant role in major Manchester schemes, including works at Manchester Town Hall and the Terminal 2 Transformation at Manchester Airport. To now be contributing to a landmark development like Therme Manchester continues that journey and reflects the trust placed in us to deliver complex infrastructure projects.
Just as importantly, this marks the beginning of a relationship with a new client in Sir Robert McAlpine. We’re looking forward to building that partnership, demonstrating our capability on site and playing our part in bringing such an ambitious and transformative scheme to life.”
Developing a New Main Contractor Relationship
Beyond the project itself, we are particularly excited to be establishing a working relationship with Sir Robert McAlpine.
Collaboration, communication and delivery certainty are fundamental to our approach as a construction contractor clients rely upon. This project provides the opportunity to demonstrate our project delivery excellence, technical capability and structured management processes to a new tier-one contractor.
We see this as more than a single contract award, it is the start of a partnership we hope to build on in future high profile UK developments.
With works now underway on this landmark Manchester construction project, we look forward to delivering a safe, coordinated and high quality scheme while laying the foundations for a strong and lasting professional relationship.
