Owner of Sutton鈥檚 Wharf North claims Tamdown Regeneration was overpaid for groundworks
The owner of a large mixed development in Tower Hamlets is headed for a High Court showdown with a groundworks contractor. Team, which own Sutton鈥檚 Wharf North, say it has overpaid contractor Tamdown Regeneration.
Tamdown entered into a contract for ground remediation work at the property in 2006. Despite a fixed lump-sum price being agreed, there was an exchange of emails in March 2007 between construction manager Gardiner & Theobald and Tamdown over a proposed remeasurement of the contract.
In June 2008, Malcolm Harris ruled that Tamdown had been overpaid and should repay Team 拢165,339.50 but the company has so far only repaid 拢47,514. Team is asking the court to turn the adjudicator鈥檚 award into a court order, and to enforce payment of the money and interest.
