County Down Tiling Firm Celebrates Successful Start To 2019

NI tiling contractor Trainor Stone and Tile (TST) is celebrating a successful start to 2019 with the award of a £1 million contract in London.

The County Down firm will begin work in the Post Building in London's West End on behalf of fit-out firm, BW, providing quality flooring and wall finishes; including concrete, porcelain and specialist mosaic features by US designer Anne Shacks.

TST will be responsible for floor and wall coverings across five of the office building's eight floors.

The company also announced it will create 10 new jobs, following its positive start to the year.

Peter Trainor, MD at TST commented: "It's an exciting time for TST, 2019 looks set to be a record year for us and we're looking forward to attracting additional talent into our workforce.

"We've opened a new office located on London's prestigious Liverpool Street to help service clients within the financial district and East London Tech City and have been working with London's leading fitout companies (such as BW, ISG and Overbury) to significantly expand our project portfolio.

"McKinsey's new London Headquarters represents an important expansion of TST's service offering due to the fact we will be incorporating all floor finishes into one single package – TST will be responsible for all floor finishes including its newly launched soft flooring offering."

The project continues a long-lasting relationship with one of London's leading fit-out contractors BW and comes on the back of two other blue chip fit-outs for Capital One and Barings Bank, in which TST were heavily involved in both design and construction.
