Historic Building Regeneration & Refurbishment

The renovation and refurbishment of historical buildings is inherently complex and sensitive involving the management of multiple interfaces, unique challenges and the introduction of technology-led solutions.

Quarmby Construction Company has worked on numerous Grade I / Grade II listed building projects incorporating façade retention schemes, underpinning, computerised roof jacking and other specialised techniques.
