Jonathan Evans, chief executive officer and chairman of Ash & Lacy has written to its customers and industry partners, outlining his desire to work collaboratively in an effort to help leaseholders who are at risk of bearing the financial burden of remediation costs to make their homes safe.
Ash & Lacy is hoping to do its part and inspire others to pull together and restore faith in the construction industry.

To all our customers and partners,
As an industry we should all be acutely aware of the vital need for building projects to be completed safely by all parties involved in their construction; ensuring the safety, wellbeing and peace of mind of the people who will live and work in them for many years to come.
However, we are deeply saddened by the plight of many residents and leaseholders who now find themselves burdened with the life-changing costs of replacing combustible cladding, because they are living in unsafe buildings and they simply have no other choice.
As industry professionals, we all have an obligation to help and play our part.
If you are tendering for a remediation project where the leaseholders are bearing the cost, please contact us and we will do all we can to reduce the financial impact on them. We pledge to provide the fullest extent of our technical support services free of charge and discount all products we supply to all leaseholder funded recladding projects.
Please encourage other suppliers and industry service providers to help. Nobody wants to profit from this situation, and we need to restore faith in our industry.
Ash & Lacy look forward to continuing working closely with you to this end. You can contact our team by emailing reclad@ashandlacy.com. We hope to hear from you soon.
Jonathan Evans
Chief executive officer and chairman of Ash & Lacy
