Led by Alistair Howden with 20+ years of industry experience, Ashden delivers high-quality construction consultancy. We specialise in healthcare and residential projects, ensuring your developments are delivered with precision, collaboration, and no financial surprises.
Two Decades of Expertise Led by Alistair Howden
Ashden was founded in 2021 by Alistair Howden, bringing over 20 years of success in the construction industry directly to our clients. We aren't just consultants; we are your strategic partners. We believe that the foundation of a successful build isn't just bricks and mortar—it’s the strength of the relationships between the client, the surveyors, and the construction team.
Whether you are a developer, a high-street lender, or a charity, we provide a steady hand and expert oversight to ensure your vision is realised without the typical industry headaches.
Specialists in Healthcare and Complex Developments
While we have a wealth of experience across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors, we are widely recognised for our niche expertise in Healthcare and Extra Care. These are complex, highly regulated environments that require a specific touch.
Our track record includes everything from minor refurbishments to major new-build schemes. A recent highlight includes our work on a 72-bed care home in Orpington, where we acted as Employer’s Agent and Quantity Surveyor for an £11.3 million project delivered over a 107-week programme.
"We firmly believe the key to successfully executed projects revolves around building positive relationships and creating a collaborative approach with the entire team."
Why Property Professionals and Investors Choose Us
We know that risk management and cost control are what keep our clients up at night. We’ve built our business model to tackle these challenges head-on:
- No Surprises: Our robust Change Control process ensures the final account is managed throughout the project life cycle, avoiding any shocks at completion.
- Data-Driven Advice: We maintain an extensive cost database and benchmarking information, allowing us to provide incredibly accurate financial advice from day one.
- Seamless Transitions: As Principal Designers, we ensure the move from construction site to operational building is seamless, providing all necessary Health & Safety and O&M manuals to your staff.
- Strategic Protection: When acting as Project Managers or Fund Monitors, we act as your strategic adviser, ensuring that contracts are administered correctly and your best interests are always protected.
