FP McCann supplied mortar and precast drainage products to Harry Elliott & Son Construction for the Gortin Water Lane housing development in Cookstown, County Tyrone. The project highlights how consistent product quality and dependable supply can support the efficient delivery of a modern residential scheme.
One of FP McCann’s silos was delivered to site in 2023, with multiple refills carried out throughout the build period. This on-site solution helped maintain continuity of supply and supported day-to-day efficiency as construction progressed. The development consists of 37 three and four bedroom detached and semi detached homes, situated off Drumearn Road in Orritor, Cookstown. With many of the properties now completed, Gortin Water Lane is helping to meet demand for high-quality family housing in the local area.
Richard Elliott, Owner at Harry Elliott & Son Construction, said: “We have been very pleased with the quality of the mortar mix supplied by FP McCann. The colour and mix have been consistent and deliveries have been to schedule.
Having the silo on site has massively improved productivity and reduced long-term costs due to not having to physically mix the mortar. We would definitely consider FP McCann’s mortar for future projects.”
FP McCann’s dry silo mortar is delivered to site in portable, sealed silos fitted with an automatic mixing system. Once connected to water and power, mortar can be produced at the push of a button, providing site teams with a reliable, consistent and easy-to-use solution that supports cleaner working practices and reduces the need for manual mixing.
In addition to the silo mortar, FP McCann’s precast concrete drainage products were also supplied for this development, showcasing FP McCann’s versatile product offering and ability to assist with builds from the ground up.
