Galliford Try Snaps Up Two University Of Leeds Refurbishment Contracts

11th Sep 2015 06:23

LONDON (Alliance News) - Construction and housebuilding company Galliford Try PLC on Friday said it has won two contracts with the University of Leeds worth a total of GBP37.8 million.

The first deal will see Galliford refurbish the Engineering Building on the university's main Woodhouse campus. The GBP22.5 million contract will involve refurbishing the third, fourth and fifth levels of the building and completing the maintenance backlog on the rest of the building.

Galliford will also take on the GBP15.3 million refurbishment of the Edward Boyle Library. That deal will include fully refurbishing the study areas and replacing the engineering systems and roof.

"We are delighted to have been able to maintain the strong ties that our Yorkshire office has with the University of Leeds with these successes. The strategy for our construction business is based on long-term relationships with respected clients and these two contracts are an excellent example of that approach," said Greg Fitzgerald, Galliford's executive chairman.
