Having been appointed pre-Christmas to refurbish BAM Nuttall’s Camberley training centre, the project was completed within four weeks.
BAM Nuttall are delighted with their new facility; their appointed in-house coordinator said: ‘We are delighted with their professionalism, attention to detail, and close involvement throughout the whole of the refurbishment project.’

Comms Room Power Reinforcement
Chantrey Vellacott DFK’s head office server room in Russell Square had, due to expansion of the firm, outgrown its power supply and UPS protection systems.
Gifford Grant was called in to re-design the installation and pull a new high voltage cable from the basement mains intake room, via risers through 3 floors in occupied office space, to a large capacity UPS and changeover switch in the Comms Room.
Preplanning with managing agents DTZ entailed negotiating with neighbouring tenants to carry out a weekend building shutdown enabling final connections to be made.
Following successful completion, a Gifford Grant maintenance contract is being initiated.

Leading Oil Company continues to grow…
Following a major refurbishment carried out by Gifford Grant in 2006, Noble Energy continue to go from strength to strength, growing considerably over the last 12 months. This growth has led to many additional furniture orders to match the original installation. Our client is very happy with the service they continue to receive and in one email even commented, ‘As usual this is perfect.’
Gifford Grant Show Suites enhance opening.........
We are delighted to announce, in partnership with Space Business Centres, the opening of our show suites at Gloucester, Rochester and Aylesbury. The Gloucester site was the first to be launched on Friday 6th March, in the presence of Parmjit Dhanda MP. This was closely followed by the official opening of Space Business Centre Medway, and last week Aylesbury opened for business.
The Aylesbury launch was a great success, officially opened by David Lidington MP, and extremely well attended.
Enquiries have started coming in for fast track interior fit outs - watch this space (no pun intended!)
