Project Story
Willmott Dixon's team of blue light specialists worked closely with West Midlands Police Authority to refurbish Lloyd House, which has been the force's headquarters since 1974, supporting 800 staff from a range of departments.
Willmott Dixon provided full refurbishment to transform the existing space into a bright, modern and IT focused working environment for the 21st Century. The improved working environment for West Midlands Police staff includes open and flexible floor plans, allowing more workers to be accommodated in the building.
The scope of work included internal reconfiguration and refurbishment, replacement and upgrade of building services, over-cladding of the existing facade with an insulated render system, and new windows.
