KWB Workplace completes Bromsgrove office refurbishment

KWB’s integrated office move management, design and fit out consultancy, KWB Workplace, has completed a comprehensive office refurbishment for the landlord of St Johns House, a Bromsgrove office building.

Landlord, Quartz Investments, appointed KWB Workplace, the consultancy arm of KWB’s Birmingham commercial property agents, to completely re-fit St Johns House, a 12,000 sq ft, three-storey, multi-let, purpose-built, modern office building situated in the middle of Bromsgrove town centre.

The refurbishment is already helping the marketing of the vacant first floor of the building. Tim Haslam of Quartz Investments said: “The refurbishment of St Johns House to grade ‘A’ standard has further enhanced the attractiveness of this town centre office building to potential tenants in a market where there is a real shortage of quality office space.”

The first floor at St Johns House offers 5,925 sq ft of offices in Bromsgrove and is available to let at a quoting rent of £16 per sq ft through KWB’s office agency team. For further information on the refurbished offices, contact Malcolm Jones at KWB on 0121 233 2330 or email mjones@kwboffice.com.

KWB Workplace Director, Adrian Southall, said: “As an independent consultancy and project manager, we are able to save time and money on office refurbishment for our clients, through our tendering system and focused project management, as well as helping to add value to the owner’s investment in the building.”

KWB Workplace works with office occupiers, landlords and developers as an independent consultancy and project manager on office design and fit out. It also acquires and plans office space and moves organisations in a uniquely comprehensive service.

Workplace’s recent projects include the landlord’s refurbishments for the ground floor and common areas, as well as the specification and fit-out, of 20,774 sq ft of office space on the ground and first floor for incoming tenant BCA Logistics at 1320 Solihull Parkway, Birmingham Business Park; the acquisition, design, office fit out and move management for Caterpillar Financial Services into 13,800 sq ft of new office space at Friars Gate, Solihull; and the project management of the interior design, office fit out, procurement and move management for USN’s relocation to 6,300 sq ft at Seven House, Longbridge.

KWB Workplace would advise landlords that currently have unoccupied office space to consider enhancing the quality of the space with office refurbishment works. Particularly in areas where high quality office space is becoming scarce, such as Bromsgrove, taking the decision to make cost-effective improvements to the property could well see the occupation of the property.
