Felgate Mews, W6
Contract Administrator: Matthews & Sons
Sector: Industrial
Project Value: £140,000
Duration: 12 weeks
Project Overview
Reconstruction and fit-out of a mews unit, taking the building from a deteriorated structure to a complete, serviced space delivered on time to the satisfaction of the client, contract administrator, CDM co-ordinator and Building Control. The failed roof structure and internal partitions, floor coverings and services were stripped out, a new steel portal frame erected on new concrete pad foundations, and the existing walls extended in brick to a new Marley sheet roof, with excavation for an internal scissor-hoist pit. The internal fit-out installed new power, lighting, central heating and fire and security alarms, dry lining, a suspended ceiling, new door sets and a tea point, with decoration throughout and carpet tiling — nominated subcontractors for the mains-gas diversion and scissor lift co-ordinated by Arden.
