The London England Temple, Surrey

The London England Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is set within an exceptional 10 acre estate, located just a few miles to the east of London Gatwick Airport. The site is home to several notable buildings, the most prominent of which is the Manor House, a three storey, 40 room Elizabethan-style mansion that has served various purposes for the Church over the years, including patron housing and use as a missionary training centre.

The temple is surrounded by beautifully maintained formal grounds, with Eden Brook running along the southern border of the property and a number of stately oak trees adding to the tranquil, paradise-like setting. Working within such a prestigious and well cared for environment required careful planning, attention to detail and respect for the surroundings at every stage of the project.

PH Beck was appointed to carry out a comprehensive programme of kitchen and bathroom replacements across 22 apartments on site. The works were delivered in three carefully managed phases to minimise disruption to the wider estate and to accommodate the ongoing use of the apartments throughout the programme.

The scope of works included:

• Mechanical and electrical upgrade works to bring services in line with current standards
• Installation of new fitted kitchens, complete with new appliances throughout
• Installation of new bathroom suites
• All associated builder’s works, finishes and redecoration to complete each apartment to a high standard

Each phase was planned and delivered with close attention to programme, quality and tidiness on site, ensuring the finished apartments provided modern, comfortable and well-appointed accommodation in keeping with the standing of the wider estate.
