Ambitious estimator wanted to shape the growth of a technology-driven London main contractor specialising in complex refurbishments. The commercial refurbishment and retrofit sector in London continues to accelerate, with ageing building stock creating sustained demand for contractors who understand the intricacies of cut and carve works in occupied and heritage-sensitive environments.
