This project involved the refurbishment and extension of a 4 storey building to create a 5 storey office for the London Taxi Authorities Head Office. 

The existing roof was removed and replaced with a 2 storey hot rolled steel and SFS structure. The new 3rd floor façade was of masonry construction with the top floor being a combination of curtain walling and cladding. The lift shaft was extended from the second floor to service the entire building and a new steel staircase was installed to provide access to the top floor. 

We successfully managed the challenging logistics on this tight site, and our works progressed with no impact on the surrounding area.
