Arding & Hobbs

Appointed as Specialist Façade Contractor and working with Principal Contractor Knight Harwood, our works to this Grade II listed building included careful restoration of the existing facades, brick and stone cleaning as well as cleaning and restoration of the iconic Coppola which now forms a focal point for the stunning new roof top bar. Our skilled masons also carried out in-situ carving of one of four new logos added to the existing Bath Stone Cuppola, with the existing stonework and pre-existing indenting sensitively overcome to achieve a fantastic finish. The fabulous re-imagining of this building will provide a huge boost for the local economy, bringing life back to the heart of Clapham Junction through a mix of high-quality retail, leisure and contemporary working space.  Another fine example of the successful re-use and refurbishment of existing building stock for contemporary use.

“Restore London brought a level of quality craftsmanship and skill that is rare in today’s construction market. They worked collaboratively, bringing their wealth of knowledge to every detail. Their contribution to the National Portrait Gallery can be seen wherever you look in the project. ”

Jamie Fobert CBE

Architect, Jamie Fobert Architects

“It was a pleasure working with the Restore London team. They showed good team spirit coupled by a highly pro-active approach to problem solving & were able to resource the project during unforeseen circumstances, such as the funeral of the late Queen Elizabeth II. The quality of their workmanship was excellent. ”

Steve Baldock

Divisional Director, Curo Construction

“I have used Restore London for a number of projects & find them very reliable & cost effective, with excellent workmanship – which is particularly important when working on a number of the Listed buildings we have here at RHC.”

Stephen Crampton

Project Manager, CBRE

““Restore London made our specified repairs so that they are almost invisible when viewing the room as a whole but are sufficiently different that an educated viewer could see where the mosaic had experienced areas of change when looking in detail. Perfect!” ”

Liz Smith

Chairperson & Regional Partner, Purcell

“Restore London’s works were undertaken to the highest standards. The team’s attention to detail has been second to none & we would recommend Restore London to anyone seeking a strong team who can deliver.”
