A 7-storey grade II listed building located in the heart of Mayfair which required a full internal and external refurbishment. The client showed no hesitation in securing Minerva Building Restoration Limited as the Principal Contractor.

​

As with all refurbishment contracts involving listed buildings, close liaison with the local council/conservation officer was of paramount importance.

​

The purpose of the project was to provide high end commercial/office space for an existing client.

​

Minerva were instructed to undertake a sympathetic internal strip out to enable the main elements of the works to be carried out namely:

​

  • New MF ceilings and lighting schemes to all floors were incorporated.

  • Timber floors were levelled and carpeted/tiled/parquet.

  • Liquid coatings were applied to main roof areas and parapet gutters. These coatings received 20year insurance backed guarantees.

  • Replacement of mechanical and electrical supplies/air conditioning systems/fire and burglar alarms/plumbing systems including a new purpose-built plan room at roof level.

  • A passenger lift was installed giving access to each floor.

  • Bespoke joinery installed in all cloakrooms.

  • Shower rooms provided in the lower grounds.

  • A full programme of decoration was implemented throughout the building.

​

Externally Minerva were instructed to provide a full height scaffolding to the front elevation which enabled all masonry and timber repairs to be carried out.

​

Following the completion of the masonry and timber repairs we were asked to decorate all timber sash windows/entrance doors/masonry and street level railing using Dulux/Akzo Nobel paint systems.

​

Contract Value: £1.6 million
