Industrial
Flying Spares, Merrylees
An industrial fit-out bringing offices, storage, workshop and technical areas together under one roof.
There’s a kind of industrial job we like. You know what the building has to do. It has to work on day one. And you want someone who’ll tell you the cost before anyone starts guessing.
Flying Spares at Merrylees was that job.
We were the main contractor for the fit-out and the relocation at Unit 28, near Desford in Leicestershire. About £2.4m. This is the project where Roundtable’s public claim is clear: we built it. Not as a consultant on the side of someone else’s contract, but as the contractor responsible for planning the work, coordinating the trades and handing over a unit the client could run from.
They needed an existing industrial unit turned into one place they could work from. Offices on the ground and first floor, storage, a car workshop and technical areas, and a 2,250m² mezzanine. Air compression and specialist equipment sat inside that brief. Then the internals: partitions, mechanical and electrical services, ductwork, a resin floor, joinery and a kitchen, doors and screens. The building had to serve parts, people and workshop activity without forcing the business to invent a workaround on day one.
We planned it with them so the cost and the programme were clear, then we built it. The works were all completed within a 26-week programme. That matters on an industrial relocation: every week the temporary arrangement runs on is a week the finished unit is not earning its keep.
Neil Arman, Director at Flying Spares, said:
“It was vital to have good people in place that could drive the refurbishment on our behalf. I'm pleased to say that everything was completed on time and within budget. We were kept well informed and Roundtable Projects were always available to answer our questions. The final result has exceeded our expectations. The refurbishment has created a fantastic working environment whilst adding value to the property.” Neil Arman

The finished unit is organised around how Flying Spares actually works: parts, people, workshop and office in one coordinated place. That is main contracting done the Roundtable way. Say the cost. Hold the programme. Keep the client in the conversation. Hand over a building that works.
We build trust first. Projects second. At Merrylees, that meant a fit-out Flying Spares could move into with confidence.
