The scheme’s luxury fit-out required precision detailing and seamless integration between trades. Our robust supply chain enabled us to compare materials and costs directly with the client, ensuring high-quality outcomes without unnecessary complexity. Uptown is a clear example of complex site management done well, a technically demanding build delivered safely, on time, and to the highest standard.
