The Project
Galsworthy House Care Home, based in southwest London, is one of 4 care homes completed with Aria Healthcare as part of a series of healthcare fit-out projects. Phase 1 work included refurbishing 11 bedrooms and ensuites with new decoration, flooring, tiling, and shower and vanities.
Upgrades to the existing plumbing and electrical services had been carried out through the rooms to ensure compliance and safety were met. Phase 2 included the refurbishment of various common rooms throughout the home, including staff rooms, kitchen, dining rooms, and corridors, to match the new theme of the home and the Aria brand.

The Challenge:
We had a frustrating start to the project due to a lack of information in some quarters, but with communication between the client and designers, this was addressed quickly with some valued engineers proposing what would be the best solution for the home and ensuring it is kept within budget.
Testimonial
“What you and the teams have achieved at Galsworthy is monumental. It has transformed from a home where they had no money except to buy B&M sale blankets into a fantastic home. We still have a long way to go with other areas, but the areas we have hit are amazing.
To say it is appreciated is an understatement. “
