This prestigious project consisted of the construction of a new 18-bed extension over 2 floors, renovation of existing bedrooms, and upgrade of existing Electrical Infrastructure within the beautiful Castle Leslie Estate in County Monaghan.
Castle Leslie is nestled on 1,000 acres of the undulating Irish countryside, dotted with ancient woodland and glittering lakes. It is one of the last great Irish Castle estates still in the hands of its founding family. Castle Leslie Estate is now truly one of the finest luxury estates in Ireland. MDE is proud to have contributed to the significant investment and major restoration programme.
This contract was carried out by MDE Installations, over a period of 3 – 4 months, in DuPont’s 14,000sq. m secure facility at Maydown in Derry. The contract involved all works associated with the wiring and installation of wireless access points to form a complete wireless network system throughout the facility.
This was a particularly delicate installation for a very exacting client as the works involved access to all areas of the facility (both public and secure) as access points were required in: offices; conference rooms; interview rooms; reception areas; canteens; plant rooms; server rooms; warehouses and production areas. All MDE operatives’ credentials were provided in advance of any site attendance and all operatives were required to partake in two site inductions.
During the course of this contract, the facility remained fully operational, therefore close coordination and excellent communication between the relevant specialists and other interested parties was critical.
This coordination was achieved through regular attendance at meetings when the progress of the previous week could be reported, and also the plan for the week ahead discussed. This allowed the client’s staff to arrange or alter their plans to coincide with the access requirements of the contractors carrying out the works.
MDE delivered the complete electrical installation of the Deloitte & Touche Offices in Belfast. This office block project spanned over 3 floors and was completed in 3 phases.
A live site required exceptional Health & Safety procedures and a flexible team to coordinate works without the disruption.

Strict procedures were set in place to minimise disruption throughout with phased programming and decanting arrangements.
Existing data networks and telephones were relocated and temporarily commissioned while work was ongoing.

Lisbreen house is a Grade B listed heritage building in North Belfast which houses the residence and offices of the Bishop of Down and Connor.
MDE were appointed as an electrical subcontractor due to our ability to demonstrate an understanding of and empathy with Lisbreen House’s heritage value, and the unique challenges presented with a project of this nature.
In installing the complete electrical upgrade, our ability to provide skilled personnel with the knowledge and understanding of the prestigious building in which they were working in was critical.
Working with other craftsmen at Lisbreen House, we were keenly aware of the importance to maintain all existing architectural structures and features.
Manor House Country Hotel is one of Northern Ireland’s leading hotels.
MDE completed the full electrical installation at the Manor House including the standby generator and protective services. We installed audio and visual systems throughout the additional bedroom wing and in the adjoining health spa and leisure complex on the grounds of this prestigious hotel.
