Testimonials | Oakland

Thank you for your support, and being proactive and accommodating on delivery of a quite testing project.

There has been very positive feedback internally here which is great for us all.

Richard Rosewell, Deputy Head, Vineyard School

I just wanted to say how delighted we are with our new classroom; Oakland have done a great job.

Helen Colbert, Headmistress, East Sheen Primary School

Everyone is delighted! The children haven’t stopped smiling and the parents are amazed that it was all finished so quickly. Your team was outstanding in every way! Thanks from the East Sheen Primary School Community.

Julie Pinhorne, Building Manager, Imperial College London

I would like to thank your team for their hard work and support in bringing the refurbishment works to the Reactor Centre to a conclusion under restricted, controlled conditions. Well done!

To John, Donal and most importantly the man on the ground, Colin. To undertake such a large job and complete it successfully within 10 weeks (probably half of the time it realistically should have taken) like you said you would was more than impressive. The site was a constant hive of activity, and I would be grateful if you could pass on our thanks to all of your subcontractors who worked on the job, all of whom were very professional, friendly, finishing to such a high standard and obviously as dedicated as you to be staying until at least 8pm most nights!

Colin, you took our (nearly impossible) proposals and programme and made them a reality. Under constant pressure from all angles you kept your cool and focused on the end result which really is outstanding and a testament to all your hard work. I am not sure we could have had a better site manager to undertake these works. Thank you for everything and it was an absolute pleasure to work with you.

Because of the critical role the Control Room has in the delivery of the operational performance of the Force, this was a particularly challenging project, which given the timescales required flexibility, attention to detail and a ‘can-do’ attitude. Because of your efforts, we now have a modern Control Room refurbished to a high standard which will support the Force into the next decade whilst enhancing the working environment of its staff.
