"One of my first projects when I joined Clark Contracts in 1999, was a refurbishment within the Garscube campus, and since then, we have refurbished and built many new buildings across the entire university campus. Our knowledge and experience of the university's estate, enables us to deliver innovation from the design stages, working in partnership with all stakeholders, to ensure we achieve best value.
