Hammersmith & Fulham Council appointed Baily Garner to provide Employer’s Agent and technical support for the deep retrofit of 11 homes in West Kensington. Delivered through a D&B contract with EQUANS and underpinned by contractual terms from Turner & Townsend, the project aimed to meet EnergieSprong standards, drastically cutting carbon emissions and improving energy efficiency through off-site manufactured insulation panels, ASHPs, MVHR, and solar panels.

We supported the Council with NEC contract administration, PAS2035 compliance, and technical oversight, including quality inspections and systems integration. Our team also played a key role in stakeholder engagement — from the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero and TrustMark to residents — helping manage risks, respond to on-site challenges, and maintain trust during programme delays.

Despite technical and logistical hurdles, the project delivered high-performing homes with strong resident satisfaction. It reinforced our role as a collaborative, innovation-led partner in sustainable housing delivery.

Daisy Spring Works is a mixed-use building in Sheffield, combining commercial space with residential units across seven floors and basement parking below. When serious fire safety issues were identified, including combustible façade materials and missing cavity barriers, we were appointed to manage the remediation works from early design through to project completion.

Acting as Project Managers, Quantity Surveyors, and Clerk of Works, we coordinated key consultants, oversaw planning and tender stages, and led cost submissions to the Building Safety Fund. We also ensured strict cost segregation, managing funding complexities between the BSF and the building’s partial warranty coverage.

Alongside fire safety upgrades, the project includes remedial works for water ingress. Our integrated role ensures both quality delivery and regulatory compliance, safeguarding residents while supporting long-term asset resilience.

AXA Investment Managers appointed Baily Garner to lead the refurbishment of Dolphin Square — a historic private residential estate in Pimlico, London. Originally designed in the 1930s, the estate includes 13 buildings surrounding a central, Grade II* listed garden. Our role spanned multidisciplinary services across an eight-year programme, working alongside Radcliffe Construction Consultants and coordinating a team of more than 20 organisations.

We led site meetings, monitored contractor progress, and advised on structural remediation, including the installation of helifix bars and wall ties to stabilise bowing walls and missing lintels. Rodney House was converted from a hotel to residential use, while all internal systems, partitions, and lifts were comprehensively stripped out and replaced.

A key focus of the refurbishment is sustainability. We supported the estate’s transition from gas to communal air source heat pumps, significantly reducing emissions and aligning with the client’s long-term environmental goals.

Situated in Brighton’s North Laine area, the development revives previously vacant sites with a bold architectural statement that harmonises with the eclectic urban fabric. The design, influenced by the surrounding conservation area, uses a robust brick finish for durability and low maintenance. Composite windows and vibrant panels add character, drawing inspiration from Brighton’s colourful heritage.

This car-free development offers homes designed to Lifetime Home standards, with one unit made fully wheelchair-accessible. It reflects close collaboration with local stakeholders, including residents and the council, ensuring it meets both community and environmental needs.
