Finnies the Jewellers

28/04/23

Thomson Gray has completed an extensive refurbishment and alteration of Finnies the Jewellers on George Street in Aberdeen.

We provided project management, quantity surveying and principal designer services.

The project involves significant internal structural alterations to form two new openings between existing and adjacent properties, creating larger and improved retail facilities. 

The existing rear extension was demolished, with pile foundations and structure being replaced. Extensive temporary and basement strengthening works were required to transfer the load of the upper floors of the adjacent building and accommodate the new openings.

Our team successfully co-ordinated the construction works with restricted access due to a tight site and neighbouring buildings while the shop remained open for business. Bespoke manufactured joinery and display cabinetry was successfully designed and built to specific product and brand requirements.

Cabinets are dark wood with a glass display area on top. In the background the showroom recedes with further cabinets and display cases.
