From Historic Conversions to Modern Care Facilities
We don't just tick boxes; we solve problems. We thrive on projects that require coordination, technical precision, and a deep understanding of the built environment. Notable recent successes include:
- Fairpark Care, Wrexham: We managed the planning and building control for a complex farmhouse and cottage conversion into a specialist residential care home, producing detailed fire strategy and drainage plans.
- Bryneglwys Community Centre: We acted as Contract Administrators for the refurbishment of a Victorian-era school, coordinating structural engineers and asbestos surveyors under a JCT Intermediate Building Contract.
- National Landmarks: We have provided Insurance Reinstatement Cost Assessments for iconic sites, including the Coal Exchange Hotel in Cardiff and the Caldy Swimming Pool in West Kirby.
Strategic Support for Commercial Portfolios
For our commercial clients, we act as strategic partners. We provide expert dilapidations advice to some of the UK’s largest industrial and retail landlords, helping to protect their investments and negotiate fair settlements. By using the latest Building Cost Information Service (BCIS) data, we ensure our assessments are accurate, robust, and market-aligned.
