Audley House, Mayfair

Client: James Purdey & Sons 

Contract Administrator: Matthews & Son LLP

Sector: Retail / Residential

 

Project Value: £45,000

Duration: 8 weeks

Project Overview

Extensive refurbishment and repairs were carried out to the external elevations of this fully occupied historic property.

The ground level retail space is occupied by the Royal Warrant Holders James Purdey & Sons with  residential apartments above.

  • Scaffold to all elevations front and rear

  • Installation of 24 hour monitored alarm system

  • Full external elevation works including cleaning, repointing and brick repairs

  • Localised roof repairs

  • Decorations to previously painted surfaces including windows, rainwater pipes and the Royal Crest situated over the entrance doors

Approach / Key Challenges

The building stayed fully occupied and trading throughout — the works were sequenced around the Purdey shopfront and the residents above, kept secure by a 24-hour monitored alarm, and the Royal Crest over the entrance was protected and redecorated in place.
