Renovation of Solbakken in Køge

MT Højgaard Denmark has renovated 220 homes for Køge Housing Association. Flats in the housing association's Solbakken II estate had their windows replaced, ventilation installed, and external balconies added. Additionally, we replaced the roofs, raised the existing roof trusses, and re-insulated the gable walls.

The flats are spread across 11 three-storey residential blocks with a total area of 17,463 square metres. They were built between 1956 and 1964, and although their red brick façades and tiled roofs still look impressive today, they have benefited greatly from the refurbishment. As part of the project, we also converted 24 homes into accessible housing and constructed a community centre that strengthened the social environment in Solbakken II.

Focus on consideration

To carry out the renovation as smoothly and efficiently as possible, we assembled a multidisciplinary team with a broad range of skills. The team completed the upgrades in each flat in a single work process to minimise disruption to residents and, throughout the project, sought to show the utmost respect for the people whose homes we entered.

We were responsible for the overall coordination of the renovation, working closely with Køge Housing Association. We also appointed a resident coordinator who informed residents about the schedule and exactly how the project would affect them. Having one's home renovated is never easy, but good communication makes many things simpler. Among other initiatives, we created a website where we shared updates and notices throughout the project.
