Our Services
Each project that we undertake is unique with its own individual requirements, ambitions and constraints - and so we look to tailor our approach and services to the requirements of each individual project and client.
Whether a client is looking for a full turnkey service from initial conception to project completion or just looking to assess the feasibility of extending a property we can assist.
As a framework we use the RIBA plan of work for all of our projects which breaks projects down into a series of stages;
0. Strategic Definition
1. Preparation & Brief
2. Concept Design
3. Spatial Co-ordination
4. Technical Design
5. Manufacturing & Construction
6. Handover
