Willmott Dixon Wins £12m Contract

Willmott Dixon's commercial team has been selected for a £12m refurbishment contract in London.

The project will see the 1960s Maple House on 37-45 City Road undergo a total revamp.

The work includes extending the north elevation and adding a 4th storey to create a more prominent frontage on City Road when the project is completed in Summer 2015.

Chris Tredget, Managing Director for Willmott Dixon in north London, explained: "Property owners like Helical Bar are investing in creating the high grade office environments that tenants require in London and are turning to our specialist knowledge and experience to deliver them.

"Building in London requires a high level of expertise for the unique conditions of working on tight sites with limited access to structurally challenging buildings; and we have a team of experts that can deliver to these exacting conditions.

"This latest contract is a further sign that London is attracting new companies to set up their headquarters, especially in sectors like technology, as it has the talent pool, connectivity and working premises they need."
