Education Construction — live, refurbishment & new build
We deliver works across schools, colleges and universities without disrupting learning. Phased programmes, out-of-hours windows and safeguarded logistics keep teaching spaces open, while integrated MEP enables specialist STEM, labs, lecture theatres and libraries. Clear gateways, weekly look-aheads and digital QA evidence keep your programme predictable.
Typical scopes include atrium and classroom refurbishments, science and tech upgrades, decarbonisation works (fabric & services), accessibility improvements and campus public realm.
Delivered in term-time night windows with red/blue routes, low-noise controls and clean handovers.
Key features
Live-campus phasing
Phased areas, decants and out-of-hours work protect teaching, exams and events with crystal-clear comms.
Safeguarding & site controls
DBS-checked teams, segregated routes, compliant hoardings, dust/noise windows and supervised access.
Integrated MEP for STEM
Coordinated services for labs and workshops—ventilation, fume extraction, gas, power, ICT and BMS.
Programme certainty
Two-stage planning, gateways, look-aheads and early procurement of long-lead items to avoid drift.
Quality & compliance
Digital QA evidence, fire strategy integration and Building Regulations compliance for safe sign-off.
Clean commissioning
ITPs and hold points, flushing/balancing, witnessing and O&M packs for a clean, defect-free handover.

Years of DeliveryFrom preconstruction to clean handover
We plan, build, and commission complex projects in live and new environments with integrated MEP and rigorous QA.
Trusted construction partner for complex delivery
Programme control
Two-stage planning, gateways, risk logs and weekly look-aheads that keep dates predictable and stakeholders aligned.
Live environment expertise
Phasing, red and blue routes, sealed zones and night windows so buildings stay operational without unplanned downtime.
Integrated MEP
Early coordination, prefab where viable, staged changeovers and rollback plans that protect services during cutover.
Clean commissioning & validation
ITPs and hold points, flushing and balancing, IST and vendor sign-off. HTM/HBN for healthcare and Tier-readiness for data halls.
Digital QA & golden thread
Photo evidence, inspections, product data and change control captured to produce clear O&M packs and Building Safety Act gateways.
Safety first
RAMS and permits, CDM duties, environmental controls and third-party audits. We aim for zero incidents and zero rework.

projects delivered
From preconstruction to clean handover we plan risks early, coordinate MEP with precision and capture digital QA evidence so your programme stays predictable and compliant. We set out clear gateways, publish weekly look-aheads and risk logs so nothing drifts. Staged changeovers, clean commissioning and soft landings give you a smooth, defect-free handover.

Live ward refurbishment delivered in night windows with red/blue routes and negative pressure—zero unplanned disruption to care.
Deputy Director of Estates, NHS TrustHTM/HBN requirements were built into design and sign-offs from day one. The evidence pack made approvals swift and defensible.
Head of Capital Projects, Acute HospitalComplex MEP changeover completed with prefabricated skids and staged commissioning—clean, compliant and ahead of programme.
Engineering Manager, Teaching HospitalTheir programme control was exemplary—transparent look-aheads, risk logs and gateways that kept stakeholders aligned throughout.
Project Director, Commercial DevelopmentTheatre laminar-flow works under sealed containment were executed flawlessly—IPC sign-offs first time, no rework.
Infection Prevention & Control Lead, NHSPreconstruction clarified risks early—cost plan, buildability and phasing turned a complex brief into a predictable delivery.

What types of projects do you deliver?New build, refurbishment and fit-out across education, commercial offices, industrial and logistics, life sciences and data centres with programme-led delivery and integrated trades.How do you keep programmes predictable?Two-stage planning with gateways, look-ahead schedules, risk and issue logs, and weekly progress reviews. Early procurement of long-lead items and clear change control prevent drift.How do you work in live or occupied buildings?Phasing and decant plans, out-of-hours windows, red and blue routes, dust and noise controls, compliant hoardings, permits to work and daily briefings so operations continue safely.Do you support preconstruction and design?Yes. Feasibility, surveys, cost planning, value engineering and buildability reviews with clear assumptions and constraints. We coordinate design to de-risk site delivery.How do you manage quality and handover?ITPs and hold points, digital QA evidence with photos and certificates, progressive snag closure, commissioning plans and soft landings. Complete O&M packs for a clean handover.Which procurement routes do you work under?Two-stage and single-stage D&B, traditional, and PCSA arrangements. We also deliver through client frameworks where required with open-book options available.How do you manage health, safety and environment?CDM compliance, RAMS and permits, inductions and daily briefings, temporary works control, environmental protection and independent audits. We target zero incidents and zero rework.Do you use prefabrication or DFMA?Yes where it adds value. We assess skids, risers and modular elements during preconstruction to improve quality, reduce time on site and minimise disruption in live environments.How do you handle cost control and changes?Baseline cost plans with tracked assumptions, live change registers, priced options and approvals before issue. Forecasts are updated with each gateway so budgets stay under control.What support do we get after completion?Training and soft landings, defects response with clear SLAs, seasonal commissioning if needed, and retained records to maintain the golden thread for the asset lifecycle.
