Construction outfit Momentum Build has won a deal to work on a new nine-hole immersive indoor mini-golf facility at a leisure complex.
Momentum Build, a division of Liverpool property firm The Momentum Group, has secured a contract with Freedom Leisure and Guildford Council to deliver works for Puttify at the Guildford Spectrum leisure complex.
It has started enabling works ahead of Puttify’s fit-out, including the strip out of six bowling alley lanes and the surrounding infrastructure, as well as installing new walls and flooring to prepare the space for the attraction. The work is due to complete in early May.
Puttify blends smart technology with competitive socialising, and it will sit adjacent to Guildford Spectrum’s popular bowling offer, which will now be made up of 26 bowling lanes.
This work forms part of a wider £10m investment project by Freedom Leisure, a not-for-profit charitable leisure and cultural trust. This includes the upgrade of facilities on site, as well as a revamped gym, a new soft play area, and a pool-based interactive water splash pad.
Momentum already has experience delivering leisure destinations across the UK. Previous projects include Gravity MAX at Liverpool ONE and Stratford, Flight Club at Liverpool ONE, and Urban Playground at Manchester Arndale.
Momentum Build was also recently appointed to deliver the refurbishment of Xplore! Science Discovery Centre, which included work on the centre’s planetarium.

Dan Lewis, construction director at Momentum Build, said: “Being appointed by Freedom Leisure reflects our strong track record in the leisure sector and our experience delivering projects for leading operators such as Gravity MAX and Flight Club.
“This also marks Momentum Build’s first project in Guildford, reflecting our continued growth into new regions.
“Puttify will bring a new social destination to the area, creating a place where the community can come together. It’s great to be working closely with Freedom Leisure, whose community-focused approach closely aligns with our core values.”
