Saxon Weald Office Fit Out

Baily Garner delivered a comprehensive Cat B fitout for Saxon Weald’s three-storey office building in Horsham, supporting their ambition to create a sustainable, future-ready workspace.

We acted as Employer’s Agent, Project Manager and Cost Consultant throughout. Our Building Services Engineering team oversaw M&E commissioning to ensure systems met both SKA Gold+ and zero-carbon aspirations.

The project included a full strip out of existing fabric and services, with all removed furniture donated to a local school. We then delivered a full Cat B fitout designed around user wellbeing and environmental performance.

To support zero-carbon goals, we removed the building’s reliance on gas, installing an air source heat pump for heating and 50m² of photovoltaic panels for on-site electricity generation. Minor alterations to the façade—such as timber cladding and a glass canopy—improved the building’s visual appeal and material diversity.

Pre-construction, we spent time aligning all stakeholders on design detail and delivery approach. This collaboration helped ensure smooth progress once works began.

During COVID-19, potential delays and cost increases—especially around lift supply—were proactively managed. We mitigated risk by ordering the lift two months before contract signature, ensuring it didn’t impact programme or budget.

The result is a modern, environmentally focused office that meets SKA Gold+ standards and is ready for a zero-carbon future—delivered on time and without additional cost.
