In particular, the team here are known for their reliability, tidy work, and the straightforward approach they apply to every project, regardless of scope or complexity. This ethos was applied to one of the most recent projects carried out by the company, for which it has been recognised with a dedicated award in this programme. The project in question involved the internal refurbishment of a period property in Hackney, with the brief requiring the team to modernise its distinctly Victorian features without sacrificing the distinct sense of character synonymous with older buildings. This involved careful planning and the team brushing up on their knowledge of traditional construction methods. To begin, the team began by solving the difficulties inherent on working in an older building which has evolved over time, with some of the previous alterations leaving visual inconsistencies. As work began, the issues began to pile up, with everything from damaged plaster and outdated wiring routes needing to be fixed to ensure the house was up to spec. This meant pivoting the project in its early stages, which, whilst never ideal, was still a welcome challenge. As work progressed, previously concealed issues became apparent, including damaged plasterwork and outdated wiring routes that required correction to bring the property in line with modern standards. One of the main ways managing these made a project different from work on a newer property was that careful preparation and a more considered approach were needed, slowing the team down. Nevertheless, leveraging its aforementioned commitment to professionalism and highquality service, which are cornerstones of every project, AWJ Construction succeeded in carrying the work out on time and to well beyond the expected standard, bringing the home up to modern standards when it comes to layout and comfort (levelling the floors and delivering a consistent finish throughout) whilst maintaining the Victorian character features (walls and ceilings were restored and not replaced, for example). “The finished result reflected both technical care and respect for the building, which is exactly what we aim to achieve on period refurbishments.” Refurbishments are, however, just the beginning when it comes to scope of the services carried out by London’s premier building and decorating company, with other examples across its portfolio including bathroom and kitchen work.
