The Results
This was a very sensitive scheme with an extensive planning and pre-construction process. The rear of the building was removed but planning required that the façade of the original building was maintained. This resulted in a complex design involving the integration of steelworks prior to the removal of the temporary works. We oversaw the entire conversion, extension and fit-out project and worked diligently to ensure local residents would have a welcoming new retail store to shop in. Although this project was a complex one, it was still delivered on time and on budget.
