186 Property Solutions has marked another major milestone in its national expansion with the official opening of its newly refurbished Darlington headquarters by local MP Lola McEvoy.
The commercial refurbishment specialist, which focuses on transforming and retrofitting existing buildings, has applied its own expertise to modernise its base at Four Riggs.
The property, originally a fruit and nut warehouse operated by J.L. Moore, has undergone a full transformation since its acquisition in 2020. The result is a modern, energy-efficient workplace designed to support future growth. The refurbishment includes new flooring and heating systems, an upgraded kitchen and welfare facilities, a new boardroom, and increased office capacity.
During her visit, the Darlington MP toured the premises, heard about the company’s recent projects locally and beyond, and presented team member Kyle Sugars with a certificate to mark the successful completion of his joinery apprenticeship.
She said: “Absolutely wonderful to see the high quality renovation 186 property solutions have done to their new offices. Our town is filled with excellent SMEs doing everything right. It was a joy to meet Kyle and present him with his apprenticeship certificate.
“I’m determined that when public money comes into our area our SMEs have every opportunity to win the contracts. For too long SMEs have struggled to compete and this Government are determined to change that.”
Director Jonathan Carter added: “This building represents what we are doing across the country, retrofitting, remodelling and reshaping existing buildings to give them a new and revitalised lease of life.
“It’s an investment that provides our expanding team with a more comfortable and productive working environment, and most importantly, it allows us to remain rooted in Darlington.”
The company is seeing increasing demand for its services across multiple sectors, including offices, retail, leisure, industrial, healthcare and education. In particular, it is playing a growing role in upgrading schools throughout the North East and Yorkshire.
While Darlington remains the company’s home, it also operates an office in Berkshire, supporting clients in London and the South East as it continues to expand its national presence.
