Specialists in Heritage and Listed Buildings
Whether you are purchasing a medieval cottage or managing a Scheduled Ancient Monument, we believe in the vital importance of conserving our built environment. We don't just identify problems; we provide the path to fixing them. We assist our clients with:
- Specialist historic building surveys
- Detailed specifications for restoration work
- Applications for Listed Building Consent and Planning Permission
Solving Complex Building Defects
Is your property suffering from damp, structural movement, or mysterious cracking? We specialise in building pathology—the science of diagnosing exactly why a building is failing. By identifying the root cause of defects, we save our clients from the expense of unnecessary or incorrect repairs. Our reports are frequently praised by solicitors and architects for their clarity and depth.
From Concept to Completion
We support homeowners and investors through the entire lifecycle of a project. If you are looking to add space with a home office, garden building, or a major extension, we can manage the process from the initial design and planning stages through to project management and final completion.
"The report is excellent. Both our solicitor and an architect have given your report high praise also (extremely impressed)." — P.J. Castle Acre
