A New London Hub for HDB Services on Gracechurch Street

A new home for HDB's growing London operations.

On 19th October 2026, Bradley Jones announced that the HDB Services London team is now based at a new London hub on Gracechurch Street. The move places the business in a prime central London location, so the team can remain closely connected to the clients, buildings and projects it supports across the capital, with responsive same day site visits.

HDB describes the new hub as an investment that reflects its ongoing commitment to delivering responsive, dependable and high quality services, while supporting the continued growth of the business and its clients. The company says it looks forward to building strong, long term partnerships from its new London HQ.

A prime central London location

Gracechurch Street is in the City of London. The photograph shared with the announcement shows a City of London street sign marked Gracechurch Street, EC3, on the stone facade of a building with an arched window.

Services for London clients

In the announcement, HDB listed the services offered alongside the new hub:



• M&E maintenance
• Fabric maintenance
• Passive fire protection
• Project delivery and refurbishments

Those are core parts of HDB's published offer. Mechanical and electrical maintenance covers planned, reactive and emergency support for commercial and industrial buildings. Fabric maintenance is planned and reactive work on the building itself. Passive fire protection is designed to help safeguard lives, protect assets and keep buildings compliant with current fire safety legislation. Project delivery and refurbishments sit within HDB's construction, refurbishment and civil engineering services.

Close to clients and projects across the capital

The point of the move, as set out in the announcement, is to stay close to the clients, buildings and projects HDB supports across London, and to provide responsive same day site visits.

HDB already publishes a range of London work on its project pages. That includes mechanical and electrical maintenance at the Leadenhall Building, known as the Cheesegrater, and at Sky Garden at 20 Fenchurch Street. The team also provides ongoing M&E maintenance at The Kensington Building and The Arbor Building in central London, fabric maintenance and refurbishment at The Kensington Arcade, and fabric maintenance across the Ashdown Phillips managed estate in London. Future Works, a commercial campus in west London, is among the published projects too.

These are examples of the London buildings and estates already set out on the HDB website. The new Gracechurch Street hub is there to keep the London team close to that work, and to clients across the capital.
