Projects

Working as interior fit out contractor for Bouygues (UK) on this project MK Contracts undertook the installation of over 13,000 M2 of suspended ceiling in both metal and mineral fibre.

We also manufactured and installed solid Oak hardwood counters and frames to the main entrance/reception area, including all safety glass. We also clad the performance hall with European panels all on an independent timber frame.

The works also included for acoustic wall panelling and metal acoustic ceiling treatment. This new build school was packaged with Eastbury School in Barking where we undertook works of a similar nature as a refurbishment project.

Moving from their existing location of Stratton House on Piccadilly the international property group, Fletcher King were seeking to expand their business whilst still retaining a prestigious central London address.

Works consisted of an open plan office area with work stations complimented with boardroom, Directors offices and communication suite for video conferencing, together with a Kitchenette and server room facility

All the storage wall and bespoke joinery was manufactured and installed by us to the clients own design. All this after extensive modifications to the existing heating/air conditioning system and under floor electrical and data services.

We were approached to undertake the internal construction to four newly erected interconnected small business units constructed on redundant ground at these famous film studios. The works consisted of the installation of external glazed facades to three linking ‘atriums’. Extensive use of timber cladding and other ‘soft’ materials were also employed in the foyers to interlink the interiors with the outside.

The interior workspaces were defined by using structural and non structural glazed screens to ensure all units could be let as either single or grouped units. Internal solid partitioning was kept to a minimum to enhance the appearance of the coffered ceilings. All lighting was eco friendly and linked to a whole building BMS. Fully integrated business system cable management and power was installed in the access floor system.

Hillside Housing Trust has now centralised all it's office based staff at new their new head quarters in NW10. The building offers space and light along with all new integrated services that meets with today’s It requirements.

Constructed as shell and core the two storey space was subject to extensive service installation for Comfort cooling, Construction works consisted of new internal walls, doors and associated goods and the installation of a disabled access lift to the first floor. New carpet and wall coverings were supplied throughout with new grid and plasterboard ceilings. A new reception desk was manufactured and installed, along with the formation of new washrooms, kitchen and post room. All data and comms room installation allowed access to their existing system whilst the relocation was fully completed.

The brief was to produce forty eight of the highest possible quality washrooms accompanied by kitchenettes, first aid and other rest facilities in the new Home Office for her Majesty’s Government.

Due to the multi location work areas our site management developed a ‘work team’ system where specific task would be undertaken and then the following team would move in to complete their element of work. This proved successful in both maintaining the output of finished work but also in ensuring no work areas were missed. Although simplistic in design the end result required much in house design for our joinery shop to produce the finished work for site.

This pair of Edwardian house (owned by the Association of Teachers & Lecturers) had been unoccupied for some eight years when the client decided to renovate and take to the office rental market. Logistics were a major factor in the short contract period as there was no storage or site accommodation other than in the work areas.

To bring more natural light into the basement the rear wall was cut away, structurally supported and a glazed atrium screen inserted. The front facades were cleaned and all the stone work repaired sympathetically along with the railings and entrance steps were also restored.

Comfort cooling was installed along with central heating. The lift was also renovated. Skirting trunking for small power and VOIP systems were also installed. All existing conservation windows were renovated and the rear elevation had self cleaning glass installed.

With the construction of in excess of thirty bespoke loft apartments MK Contracts were invited to fit out the 1300 ft2 duplex loft. As with all lofts they are all individual bespoke design and each one generates its own construction agenda.

Underfloor heating under floating floors, Lutron integrated lighting and Home theatre installations to two areas along with cutting edge design all went to producing high quality living accommodation. All joinery items were manufactured in house and installed on site. This is also applicable to the hand finish Travertine marble flooring and special plaster and paint finishes to the walls and ceilings.

This 5 story office is located in the heart of London’s West End. Logistics played a defining roll in the completion of this refurbishment. The works comprised new internal glazed partitions with manifestations, full height oak doors and dry lined partitions, curved wall to the new reception and staff breakout area, modification to and extension of existing lighting heating and cooling. Fitting of specialist joinery, flooring, blinds and curtains. This project was the latest in a series of works carried out for this client and all 5 floors were refurbished to the clients expectations and within the programme.

The project was one of the first tranche of a nationwide washroom refurbishment programme and as such was still in the early stages of design and manufacture of bespoke elements required to realise the architects and clients vision.

After extensive demolitions and alterations to the existing concrete structure, installation of the mechanical ventilation commenced. The use of radius walls, within the washrooms, aided in producing a more special effect within the new area. Extensive templating was employed to ensure all our in house produced joinery items fitted correctly to these walls. Touch sensor taps and toilet flush systems completed the new sanitary ware installation. To finish the refurbishment extensive use of painted glass and graphics completed the visual collage to these refurbished male and female facilities. Finally, the adjoining 1970’s lift lobby was completely refurbished to a similar level complimenting the whole washroom experience.

As part of the Foxtons refurbishment programme this unit under went extensive construction works prior to fitting out. Structurally the basement and ground floor dividing walls were removed and steel work frames installed to provide two new open plan work areas.
The works includes new washrooms with bespoke vanity units and staff kitchenette with breakout area, The main entrance area has a new bespoke reception desk and mail pigeon hole unit with the main open plan area divided by a custom made glass panel map wall.
We are also pleased to have undertaken smaller projects for Foxtons at the Sloane Sq. Chiswick, Docklands, Balham, Shoreditch, Battersea and Fulham branches as part of their ongoing upgrade and remodelling programme.

This new unit was a former public house. Extensive remodelling of the façade to include new curtain walling to the ground floor and entrance. The upper floors were reconfigure to open plan office with new small power, data and VoIP. All new bespoke joinery from our own workshops complete the project ready for the client’s opening party.

Total refurbishment of four wards. Two wards were stripped out and converted into office accommodation for the trusts patients administration centre. The final two involved the reworking of the infectious disease wards. New air handling plant serving new rooms complete with ensuites brought this critical area of care up to date. We then went on to completely refurbish the rest of the ward with the latest in patients’ aids and nursing requirements.

Conversion of VRTC ward, (965M2) into 38 consulting rooms allowed the client to install new state of the art equipment and increase patient numbers and turn round by 50%. Works included extensive M&E work with chilled water heating/cooling throughout the floor. Also extensive Lighting, power and sanitaryware throughout. The rest of the works consisted of new Glaucoma offices and areas for support staff to work in.

Building on Mk Contracts extensive experience in health care we were delighted to secure this project after undertaking several smaller projects for Princess Alexandra Hospital around the Hospital. The John Snow ward is a fourth floor 670m2 ward which was reconfigured into a 14 room, 20 bed children’s ward.
After completing a total clearance of the ward the remaining partitioning were reconfigured to suit the new layout along with the new stud partitioning. New medical gas and bed head services were installed along with the latest technology remote patient.
New ceilings, decorating, joinery, vinyl and lighting installation completed the works. Mk Contracts undertake the resolving of several M&E design matters on this project. Including the design and installation of radiant panel heating with integrated BMS system. All this to ensure that the refurbishment works could be achieved in the client required timescale.
