Easter Newsletter
With Spring, supposedly on its way (!) we thought it would be a great idea to launch a monthly newsletter where we can showcase recent refurbishment projects and team news.
This year, we’ve seen an increase in workload, certainly across the hotel and leisure sectors and we have some exciting news in the pipeline which we hope to share with you next month. With a growing workload comes a growing team, and below you can see a few new team members welcomed into the fold.
Let’s get to it…
Project Updates
Since January 2018 we have commenced on various hotel and leisure refurbishment projects with clients, new and existing:

IQ Student Living
Sample rooms have been completed ahead of confirmed summer refit projects for IQ Student Living in Hoxton, Lincoln and Edinburgh. We’re looking at circa 500 student rooms to refurb. More to follow on that in a future newsletter.
Tipi
New London Marketing Suite completed for Tipi; a new rental experience which aims to be ‘the best way to live in London’. They are an exciting new client, owned by Quintain (the team behind Wembley Park, one of London’s most exciting new neighbourhood) and we look forward to delivering their ‘official’ Marketing Suite very soon.
Costa Coffee
Earlier this year we completed a trio of refits in East Anglia; Ipswich (drive-thru), Peterborough
and Cambridge. The leisure refit team have also completed onsite at Seacroft Retail Park in Leeds and we’re back in Cambridge in May installing a brand new Costa Coffee for commuters at Cambridge North train station.
Travelodge
We were at the Grand Opening of the Liverpool John Lennon Airport Travelodge which was a great refit project to be apart of. Pictured is Mayor Malcom Kennedy doing the obligatory ribbon cutting!
We have commenced onsite at Gatwick, Waterloo, Richmond and Milton Keynes to refit
various bedroom schemes and bar cafes.
Recent Case Study Sinah Warren Hotel
We recently completed a 4 week 60 room refurbishment project for Warner Leisure Hotels along with the impressive cabaret late-lounge transformation which we’re extremely proud of!
The 530 cover Cabaret Lounge and show bar saw TROY group contractors spend approximately 3,800 hours on site and cost circa £1000,000. Read the cabaret case study here
