The refurbishment of any property, commercial or domestic, calls for an expert approach from the very beginning and structural analysis is particularly important for larger projects.
At Parker & Son we’ll undertake each and every aspect of the refurbishment process, from the initial structural surveys and architectural planning, to the finishing touches.
Whether you need minor work such as painting and decorating, or substantial alterations such as moving a load-bearing wall, our craftsmen will undertake each and every job, completing it to the high standards that we’ve been setting since the 1930s.
Conservation work on listed buildings
At Parker & Son, conservation work on listed and non-listed buildings is one of our strengths.
Conservation work can be tricky, so experience and expertise in the field is a necessity.
The conservation building team at Parker & Son have restored everything from churches and chapels, to houses and halls, all with the care and attention required of such technical, time-consuming work.
If you’ve got a building conservation project in London, Brighton or the South East, we’d be more than happy to hear about it.
St Mark’s Church, Mark Cross
We were appointed by John D Clarke Architects to carry out a complete refurbishment and modernisation of St Mark's Church and turn the building into more of a community space.
St Mark's is now part of the Mark Cross Community Centre.
The main hall is now light and airy with a floor space of 60 square metres.
Services are held at the church on Sundays while during the week the building can now be used for other village activities and is available to hire.
We installed new toilet facilities, openings and doors to lobby as well as providing central heating and extensive refurbishment throughout. There are now two toilets, one with disables access and baby changing facilities.
