The new service line will sit within Wates' Construction business, strengthening its offering in the fit out and refurbishment market and operating separately from its existing Smartspace business. With Smartspace providing a nationwide service focussed on frameworks in both private and public sectors, this new capability tailored to the London commercial market will help Wates offer a broader range of specialist refurbishment services to clients across all sectors
