We weren’t looking – honest! However, I think it was May time and we took a call from the new owner of some land we had been looking at some years before.
It was/is a killer location but at the time was too complicated for us to navigate. Fast forward 3 years and we were presented with an opportunity too good to turn down – enter GQ Epping!
Now, this was our biggest challenge to date, not good enough to move straight in but not bad enough to knock down and purpose build new like we did at Ware.
Most testing moment? Having to sync the whole front wall coming off (company a) with the roller shutter door going in (company b). All while lining up the re cladding of the surrounding wall – you guessed it, (company c!). Long story short we/they failed and it was open faced to the elements for almost a week, post decorating! *facepalm*. Best moment? Hiring the marshmallow man to come in and spray insulation on the ceiling.
Sid played his part providing not only vast load lugging but also a much needed reclining seat for the odd KitKat! Not to mention keeping the drinks chilled under the arm rest.
I still remain anxious but my nerves are easing with each new owners call, and it now really feels like another GQ. As a thank you to everyone for their trust or for our owners in other facilities wanting to view we’ll be hosting a breakfast meet there super soon.
For more info or just to coffee give me a call anytime.
