Heineken UK: Public House Refurbishment 

The Brief 

Flowtec was appointed by Swandene for Heineken UK (Star Bars) to deliver full plumbing and mechanical works as part of the refurbishment of a long-closed public house in Amble. 

The project required a complete upgrade of heating, hot water systems, and facilities, alongside the installation of a new commercial kitchen to bring the venue back into operation. 

Our Approach 

We worked as part of a wider refurbishment team, coordinating closely with other trades to ensure all mechanical and plumbing elements were delivered on schedule. 

Given the scale of the refurbishment, we focused on delivering robust, reliable systems that would support both front-of-house and back-of-house operations. Careful planning ensured all installations were completed efficiently within the six-week programme. 

Outcome 

The refurbishment was completed within six weeks, transforming the venue into a fully operational public house with modern facilities. The client benefited from a high-quality installation designed to support ongoing commercial use.
