High-flying fit-out

high Flying

Morris & Spottiswood recently completed a comprehensive refurbishment for Heathrow Airport’s Glasgow based office, delivering a high-specification workplace designed to support modern working practices while reflecting the organisation’s identity.

For the project, great use wasmade of the group’s in-house specialists with Livingston Building Services providing M&E services, and the Morris & Spottiswood Flooring Division fitting the floor coverings. The fit-out of the Heathrow Glasgow Office followed a competitive tender process and began promptly after the contract was awarded in May 2024, with work commencing on-site in August.

The location, which consisted of two-thirds of a floor within the office building, was previously an empty shell and required extensive reconfiguration work.

A key advantage of Morris & Spottiswood’s internal capability is the level of control and consistency it brings to complex fit out projects. In-house M&E and flooring divisions ensure seamless coordination between disciplines, reducing the risk of miscommunication and delays.

The M&E input from Livingston Building Services enabled quick mobilisation and design coordination at every stage of the programme. The familiarity with Morris & Spottiswood’s delivery standards meant that key milestones could be met efficiently and with fewer bottlenecks, while maintaining a consistently high quality of installation.
