Ongoing electrical works at City of London offices of Bird & Bird

As an approved electrical contractor for international law firm Bird & Bird LLP, Barton Knight Electrical has undertaken a number of projects in the firm’s London office, including supporting regular office churn. The 12 floors of premium office space on New Fetter Lane, in the City of London has a flexible layout which is regularly reconfigured.

“The team usually work on weekends as the offices are occupied in the week,” explains Matthew Barton, Managing Director  of Barton Knight Electrical. “Bird & Bird require a high standard of workmanship which we’ve been able to deliver again and again. We’ve worked there for nearly eight years and know the building well so we know where to take the cable routes and can complete the works quickly and with minimal disruption.

“We also know the people there and have built a great relationship with the management and staff onsite – many of our team have returned to work there many times over the years. We have a number of similar partnerships with other long-standing clients for ongoing electrical works; it brings great benefits for both parties.

“Our electricians have a lot of experience of different building types and are equally comfortable in Victorian or Georgian properties as they are modern buildings, such as Bird & Bird’s UK offices.”
