The visit highlighted the development’s commitment to creating a vibrant community, ahead of residents moving in over the next few weeks.

We’ve been appointed to convert Grade-II listed Victoria House into a 300,000 sq ft, state-of-the-art life sciences hub, with the main phase due to complete in Autumn 2024.

We have been celebrating the start of construction on phase 3B of Gascoigne East in the Gascoigne Neighbourhood with Be First, the urban regeneration arm of Barking and Dagenham Council. 

In 2023 we completed a refurbishment project at Ada, the National College for Digital Skills, on behalf of the Department for Education (DfE), transforming a former secondary school into a pioneering digital campus in time for the 2023/24 academic year.

In the summer of 2023, we completed a office fit out in Finsbury Park, London, for our Property Services team. The existing premises had previously contained 16 smaller offices, and the project involved reconfiguring the space to create an open-plan design to accommodate our colleagues relocating from two offices in Enfield and Willesden.

We pride ourselves on delivering solution-driven fit-outs for the retail sector. Over the last two decades, we have facilitated over 5 million square feet of retail refurbishments for M&S.

At Grahame Park in Barnet, we were chosen by Notting Hill Genesis to work on Plot A as part of the regeneration of a 1970’s housing estate, providing 209 new affordable homes, in a safe and welcoming environment where the community can flourish.

Delivering the £100M redevelopment on the Kings Road, one of London’s most prestigious streets.

The £53m refurbishment and extension of the 129,521sq. ft. office building at 41 Lothbury sees us revisit the building, having completed the original refurbishment 18 years ago.

The project to fit out M&S’ newest store in the iconic Battersea Power Station development presented an entirely fresh set of challenges.

We recently transformed the Sir Michael Uren building at Imperial College London (ICL) over an 11-week programme.

We’ve completed work on a new seven-story mixed-use building behind the iconic Piccadilly Lights in central London, transforming a previously disused space into shops, workspaces and apartments.

In this blog, Peter Jones, Wates Senior Sustainability and Environmental Advisor, shares how, together with client Landsec, Wates has delivered a sustainable workplace with an impressive biodiversity net gain and embodied carbon reduction at the flagship building project behind the lights at Piccadilly Circus:  Lucent.

We caught up with our Senior Design Manager, Sandra Weerasinghe, and Ada’s Director of Operations, Sophie Clifton, to reflect on the importance of shared values when working together.

We’re set to expand our presence in London with the appointment of our housing maintenance services team  to deliver Brent Council’s Major Works programme across its social housing portfolio.
