6-10 Market Road is an office building which was originally constructed in 1989. Watkins Payne were commissioned to design a Cat B fit out refurbishment of the area for a single tenant.
The Practice was responsible for the design and monitoring of the refurbishment of the kitchen facilities. This covered all aspects of the mechanical, electrical and public health services, covering the full kitchen and dishwashing areas. The hotel catering operation had to be maintained during the course of the works, presenting a number of technical challenges that had to be overcome.

We are looking forward to our continued involvement in the project, pending positive planning feedback.
The MEP services were all replaced with a focus on energy efficiency using air source heat pumps, LED lighting and natural ventilation where possible.
The speculative office space is fitted out to a Category A standard and will be British Council of Offices (BCO) Guide to Specification 2019 compliant. The refurbishment has adjusted the temperature control zones to pull them better in line with the BCO recommendations than currently provided.
The building is provided with natural ventilation and LTHW heating to the showroom and office areas, plus the toilets which also receive hot water from the same boiler installation.
