MAXI Construction has secured a contract from St John Scotland for refurbishment and extension works to St John’s House, a C-listed building in Edinburgh’s Old Town.

Works will include demolition of part of a 1970s extension, underpinning and new extension to provide a lift shaft, alterations to the roof space to create additional office space, and internal refurbishment including accessibility improvements throughout the entire building.

John Aitchison, Maxi Construction’s MD, said, “We are looking forward to delivering this complex project within a restricted site area, adding to our extensive track record of refurbishing listed and traditional buildings in Edinburgh.”

The project team includes GLM, Elliott and Company, and Irons Foulner.
