Higgins Homes welcomes the Government’s announcement that, as of Wednesday 13th May, it is easing lockdown restrictions for home movers, buyers and sellers while continuing to ensure strict social distancing measures remain in place. This means that alongside developers, estate agents are now able to safely reopen for business, viewings can take place and surveyors and moving companies are able to restart operations.
In light of the COVID-19 outbreak, construction work across the majority of Higgins Homes’ sites was paused in late March to ensure the safety of our staff and suppliers.
We were able to maintain activity on a small number of our sites while adhering to social distancing guidelines.
Since then, we have been closely following Government guidance and reviewing our position carefully.
Following a detailed review of all measures and the latest Government guidance, we are now in a position that enables us to reopen a number of our sites – where it is safe to do so - on Monday 4th May.
