Planning & Preparation

Our design team met the client on site to agree planning, risk assessments, programme, site compound and fitting samples. Every member of our team was police-checked and signed off by the client before work began.

To keep staff safe and the office running, we worked night shifts when no employees were at their desks.

Installation & Quality

Each night, 90 light fittings were installed and tested, then signed off by the client’s maintenance engineer against a quality checklist. Our on-site supervisor managed quality and teams area by area.

Client-requested changes, such as separately switched lighting and a room split for a new office, were recorded on job sheets and approved immediately, so progress was never held up.
