Linden Homes chose HBS as the M&E and renewable contractor for their Nightingale Park development in Sarisbury Green, Hampshire. HBS Mechanical provided specialist new build plumbing and heating services, completing installations to 123 new homes.

The 123 development within the grounds of the old Coldeast Hospital offered a mix of two, three and four bedroom houses and two bed apartments. HBS delivered an integrated mechanical, electrical and solar PV solution helping the new build scheme achieve its renewable energy requirements.
