Bedfont Lakes Office Park

Café Extension with Green Sedum Roof
At Stamford Contracts, we pride ourselves on delivering projects that combine functionality, sustainability, and modern design. Our Bedfont Lakes Office Park project perfectly exemplifies this commitment. This 16-week endeavour involved extending an existing café to create a contemporary eco-friendly space that serves both national and international companies based within the office park.
Project Overview
Bedfont Lakes is a prominent business park, home to a diverse range of businesses. The project required the transformation of the existing café into a larger, more sustainable facility. The highlight of the extension was the installation of a green sedum roof, which not only enhanced the building’s eco-credentials but also contributed to the aesthetic and environmental goals of the office park.
Our team managed every stage of the project, from demolition to final fit-out, ensuring that every element was completed to the highest standards.
Challenges and Solutions
  1. Demolition and Strip-Out:
    The first stage of the project involved the careful demolition and strip-out of the existing café space. The challenge was to remove and clear the old structure efficiently while ensuring that the surrounding office park and its occupants experienced minimal disruption. Through meticulous planning and coordination, we successfully completed this phase with precision, ensuring the site was ready for the new extension.
  2. Manufacture and Installation of Steel Frame Structures:
    Once the site was cleared, our next step was to install the new steel frame structure. This provided the backbone of the extension, allowing for a strong, durable framework that would support the new café and its green roof. Our engineers and construction teams worked seamlessly together to manufacture and install the steel frame, ensuring it met all safety and regulatory standards.
Project Outcome
The result was a beautifully extended café with a green sedum roof, offering a contemporary and eco-friendly space for the businesses at Bedfont Lakes Office Park. The new café not only serves as a practical facility for staff and visitors but also reflects the sustainability ethos of the office park. By incorporating a green roof, the café contributes to the overall environmental goals of the site, offering improved energy efficiency and a visually striking addition to the business park’s landscape.

Challenges and Solutions
3. Construction of Wall and Floor Elements:
With the frame in place, we moved on to constructing the walls and floor elements. This stage required careful attention to detail to ensure that all aspects of the build were in line with the architectural design. Our integrated team of surveyors, engineers, and construction experts worked closely to ensure that every element of the extension was built to exact specifications, resulting in a high-quality finish.
4. Green Sedum Roof Installation:
A key feature of the project was the installation of the green sedum roof. This eco-friendly addition provided several benefits, including improved insulation, natural water management, and enhanced biodiversity. The green roof was carefully designed and installed to not only complement the café’s contemporary design but also to reduce the building’s environmental impact. Our team of roofing specialists ensured that the sedum roof was expertly laid, creating a striking visual feature that also serves a practical purpose.
5. Indoor and Outdoor Fixtures, Fittings, and Finishes:
The final stage of the project involved the installation of all indoor and outdoor fixtures, fittings, and finishes. This included everything from lighting and flooring inside the café to landscaping and outdoor seating areas. We focused on creating a welcoming, modern space that was both functional and visually appealing. Every detail, from the choice of materials to the final finishes, was carefully selected to align with the client’s vision of a contemporary eco café.
