Sector Expertise
Education
We have decades of experience creating and/or refurbishing educational facilities that inspires learning within schools, colleges, and universities. To date over 200 projects have been completed with a gross value exceeding £100 million.
Many of the projects are carried out within fully operational ‘live’ environments, this means we ensure that our works are carried out with the minimum of disruption to the day to day operation of the facility.
All our teams are Enhanced DBS checked and fully understand the safety, health and environmental implications of working within education environments and will work with the stakeholders to phase works around key timetable events.
Every project we deliver is an opportunity for us to bring our unique thinking to solve problems, innovate and collaborate.
Commercial
Creating flexible work environments which increase productivity, communication and collaboration is vital in today’s fast-paced evolving world.
At MCS we are building and refurbishing the full breadth of commercial and office environments – from city-centre developments to historic civic offices.
Our wealth of experience makes MCS a natural choice for this type of project.
Residential
Turning a vision into a reality and creating a building where people want to live drives us.
Our experience in this sector is diverse. New build or refurbishment projects range from traditional restorative works on Grade 1 Listed mansion houses, high-end apartments, luxury houses for private sale, to affordable and mixed tenure housing, and student accommodation.
Retail
The retail industry is constantly evolving because of new ways to shop due to changes made possible by technologies and evolving consumer behaviours.
Our range of services includes building new retail outlets, fitting-out and modernising existing ones, and converting retail space following an acquisition.
We work collaboratively with retailers, phasing construction works to minimise any impact on day-to-day retail operations and customer experiences and at the same time creating the next unforgettable shopper experience.
Heritage
Our buildings, whether historic or contemporary, are triumphs of design and workmanship. They touch our lives in many ways; they bring pleasure to communities and tourists; and they contribute to national pride, remind us of our history and provide a springboard for regeneration and economic prosperity.
Our own heritage craftsmen, combined with specialist sub-contractors, all have a wealth of experience delivering a variety of complex refurbishments on some of the country's most valued heritage landmarks, which makes MCS the natural choice for heritage projects which demand a particularly sensitive approach.
Leisure
Increasing physical activity has the potential to improve the physical and mental health and wellbeing of individuals, families and communities.
​
Every project is unique. To satisfy our clients’ aspirations best we like to engage as early as possible, so that we have influence while scoping is still ongoing. This helps us fully understand the requirements and potential challenges, to offer best buildability, phasing, and environmental advice.
​
Often facilities remain fully operational while our work is ongoing. This means working closely with stakeholders to plan and phase our activity to minimise the impact of the works on our clients’, end users and communities.​
Healthcare
From refurbishment of hospital wings to new build health centres, we work with public and private healthcare providers to deliver facilities to address the healthcare agenda.
Clients’ need absolute certainty when they procure their essential works, that their construction partner understands their aims and aspirations and can deliver smarter, faster, and better.
Our expertise of working in live environments is well proven. Our detailed and flexible delivery strategy is at the forefront of activities and developed in collaboration with the client, starting at pre-construction, so the clinical teams have absolute confidence in zero disruption.
Ecclesiastical
A church is not just a place of worship but is the heart of the local community, used and loved by many. As such an ecclesiastical project requires close sensitive collaboration and attention to detail.
Typically, there are many stakeholders in the project with a vested interest, or concerns, in the project; at MCS we listen and understand any concerns and ensure that all stakeholders remain informed throughout the duration of the project.
MCS has considerable new-build and refurbishment experience in the ecclesiastical sector with projects ranging from £50,000 to £4 million.
