Appointment follows nearing completion of demolition work undertaken by Salter Construction Art-Invest Real Estate (Art-Invest) has appointed RED Construction Group as lead construction contractor to deliver the redevelopment of Sackville House on Piccadilly. A historic office building in the West End, it is set to offer 30,000 sq ft of new Grade A workspace alongside a new roof terrace, amenity space and a retail offer across the ground floor. Sackville House is an iconic building that is being significantly repositioned by RED Construction’s London team, with an extension to both the roof and rear and a comprehensive internal refurbishment, allowing the building’s fabric and heritage to be retained whilst delivering an exemplar commercial building back to the area for the next generation. Given RED Construction Group’s renowned ability with unique construction projects and its experience and understanding of building similar to the historic significance of Sackville House, the team is the ideal partner for Art-Invest. Start on site is expected in the first quarter of 2025. In the first half of this year, Art-Invest successfully secured planning permission for Sackville House, a Grade II listed building, located on the corner of Sackville Street and Piccadilly. Early enabling and strip out works undertaken by Salter Construction are well underway and expected to complete early in the New Year. With seven floors of workspace and an outdoor pavilion on the roof terrace, Sackville House will be a unique offer for occupiers wanting a premium workspace balanced with this quantum of exceptional amenity space in the form of a gym, fitness and spin studio on the lower ground floor in the bank’s original vault. Art-Invest Real Estate is targeting practical completion by the end of 2026. Will Oakes, Senior Development Manager, Art-Invest Real Estate, said: “It is great to have RED Construction Group on board and we look forward to working with the team to continue the progress that has been made on site. Sackville House is a really exciting proposition for the West End office market. The amount and quality of amenity space that is prioritised in the building sets it apart and ensures it is ideally placed to capitalise on increasing demand for Grade A spaces that support a better work life balance, in the best London locations.” Mark Iori, Managing Director at RED Construction London, added: “Our appointment to deliver Art-Invest’s iconic Sackville House is testament to RED Construction London’s proven track record working on heritage-rich sites in the heart of the capital. We are known for delivering considered refurbishments across London, and we are pleased to add yet another landmark Grade II listed building to our project portfolio.” Building, Design & Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals
RED Construction Group, the specialist main contractor, has announced its results for the 2023/24 financial year. Reaching a key milestone for the business, RED Construction Group has reported a turnover of £115m, as the company continues to deliver targeted revenue and achieve sustainable profit. Across the financial period, from 1st April 2023 to 31st March 2024, RED Construction Group has maintained a pre-tax profit margin of 1.7%, while taking turnover to nine figures for the first time in the company’s history. RED Construction Group forecasted more than 60% growth for 2023/24 in the previous financial year results, a figure that has been exceeded. Maintaining a stabilised income stream, The Group has already secured over £100m in contracts for its 2024/25 financial year. Operating year-on-year as a stable, profit-generating business, RED Construction Group is firmly established across multiple regions and sectors through an ambitious, controlled growth strategy. Key project wins and completions in that timeframe include South West’s team work on the £22m Net Zero Carbon Zeal Hotel in Exeter, creating a benchmark for the industry. RED Special Projects’ delivery of Warwick Castle Hotel, part of Merlin Entertainment’s £16.4m investment in Warwick Castle, following works delivered at Merlin Entertainment’s £35m LEGOLAND Woodland Village scheme in Windsor during the previous financial year. RED Construction London completed phase one works at The Sheppard Trust’s redevelopment of the Royal Cambridge Home in Surrey, alongside delivering Barwood Capital’s multi-million-pound redevelopment of Explore, the office building in Richmond. Graham Sturge, CEO, RED Construction Group, commented: “12 months ago, we predicted 2023/24 would be a huge milestone for the business, and I’m proud that we’ve met that and more, with a turnover comfortably over the £100m mark for the first time. We’ve also sustained a robust profit margin, an important element of the stable, considered growth we want to achieve year-on-year. “Whilst we celebrate this, we’re also very conscious of the volatility of our market. Our focus for the coming year remains the same – risk management, stable growth, and supporting our supply chain partners, that are often hit hard by that volatility and rarely spoken about publicly. With contracts secured and work underway that will guarantee more growth for 2024/25 – alongside our ongoing relationships with clients, new partnerships, team growth, and project delivery across London, the South West, and beyond – we’ve built a sustainable platform to serve one of the biggest industries in the UK with excellence in the years to come.” RED Construction Group is currently delivering a portfolio of works across hospitality, commercial, office, and student accommodation sectors. Projects include the landmark 130,000 sq ft office scheme in the heart of Westminster for Tellon Capital, Berkeley Estate Asset Management (BEAM)’s comprehensive refurbishment of 8 Lancelot Place, a live office building in Knightsbridge, and significant works to Manhattan Loft’s iconic St Pancras Renaissance Hotel.

GMI Construction Group has completed the steel framework of a £15.7m waste to energy facility in the North East ahead of schedule. To mark the milestone in the delivery of the 75,000 sq. ft development, Gary Oates, GMI’s Divisional Managing Director, and Ian Jones, Joint Managing Director of Fornax Environmental Solutions, performed a steel signing ceremony. Work on the high temperature thermal treatment facility in County Durham began in June and is due for completion by April 2025, after which it will undergo a three- month commissioning period. Developed for Fornax Environmental Solutions, it will process up to 10,500 tonnes annually of hazardous and clinical waste produced by the industrial and healthcare sectors, largely within the region. Using advanced rotary kiln combustion technology, the energy and heat generated will be made available to neighbouring businesses, reducing reliance on fossil fuels. The facility, located on Millennium Way, is the second development at Merchant Park in Newton Aycliffe, a £90m, 65-acre scheme that includes Hitachi Rail Europe. Creating 75 construction jobs and a further 27 permanent roles, the facility aims for a BREEAM rating of ‘Very Good’ and an EPC grade B, depending on fit outs. The building will feature first-floor offices, high eave heights, advanced warehouse floor loadings, secure yards, and EV charging stations. Gary Oates, GMI’s Regional Director, said: “This milestone marks an exciting chapter for the project and highlights the incredible progress we’ve made. Completing the steel framework ahead of schedule highlights the dedication, skill, and teamwork of our staff and delivery partners and reaffirms our commitment to providing high-quality industrial facilities in the North East.” Ian Jones, Joint Managing Director of Fornax Environmental Solutions, added: “The completion of the steel framework is a significant step toward fulfilling our mission of delivering this sustainable waste management solution. “We are investing in a critically underfunded sector within the UK, addressing the limited capacity for the disposal of clinical and hazardous waste. Instead of exporting it offshore, we’re offering a local solution to a local problem. “However, this facility will also provide energy to local businesses. Many have already expressed interest in the heat offtake, helping them reduce their reliance on carbon-based fossil fuels for heating and electricity.” Building, Design & Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals

RED Construction Group, the specialist main contractor, has been appointed on two projects in Bristol, valued at a combined £35m.
