New Project at Thornlea University of Exeter!

Recently we have secured a new project at Thornlea, University of Exeter. This project involves refurbishing seven rooms across the art building, so the staff and students can enjoy a new friendly and modern environment during the new semester.

Mark, our Site Manager said, "I always enjoy working at the University, it's a nice place to work and has a friendly and helpful team. The goal (as always) is to deliver a completed project to a repeat client on time, to a high standard and try and cause as little disruption to day-to-day workings of the university as possible."
