The Other House

Extensive facade works as Specialist Façade Contactor. This unique project comprised of seven separate Victorian & early 20th Century buildings, three of which are Grade II listed, retained and redesigned to sit around a five-storey glazed atrium providing luxury hotel and living space. Our works included surveys to all facades and extensive sampling, cleaning & restoration to retained sections of external facades and internal lightwell elevations comprised of various materials including brickwork, stucco and natural stone. Our team designed, procured and installed new Portland, Bath and York Stone units to the crowning sections of the building. Other works included new granite section installation and repairs to existing, glazed brickwork restoration and new leadwork and flashings. This project was a unique and inspirational example of what can be achieved through visionary and sympathetic design combined with traditional facade retention and restoration.

“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. ”

“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.”
