Hetherington House

When Hetherington House’s kitchen failed an audit due to hygiene and compliance concerns, Hostservice was brought in to deliver a complete solution. Through a full design-and-build refurbishment, we transformed the outdated facility into a modern, fully compliant commercial kitchen with improved workflows, upgraded refrigeration, and enhanced ventilation — all delivered on a tight budget and ahead of schedule.

Hostservice was engaged to assess the existing kitchen at Hetherington House after the facility failed an audit due to exposed timber surfaces and a range of hygiene and compliance concerns. Following a comprehensive review of the space, we delivered a complete design-and-build solution that not only rectified the identified issues, but also significantly improved the overall functionality and efficiency of the kitchen environment.

The refurbishment works included the installation of hygienic wall and surface finishes, improved workflow layouts for staff, upgraded refrigeration capacity, and a modernised ventilation system to better support day-to-day operations and ongoing compliance requirements. Every aspect of the redesign was carefully considered to create a practical, durable, and efficient workspace suited to the operational needs of the facility.

Working within a live operational environment, the project was delivered within a tight budget and completed ahead of the anticipated programme. The end result was a modern, fully compliant commercial kitchen that provides improved safety, usability, and long-term performance for the Hetherington House team.
