As a design lead building company we believe a good quality, highly developed and detailed design is
essential to ensure building projects are properly costed and managed – in fact we cannot give you a fixed price quotation without a detailed design.
There are two routes to get to the Construction stage with us:
Route 1:
Use our Expert Design Service
Our expert designers will work with you to develop and define the detailed design.
We broadly follow the RIBA Plan of Works design process.
At the end of the Design Stage the Designs (Drawings, Design Specification and Building Specification) belong to you and you are free to use these with a different contractor should you wish to do so.
Route 2:
Use your own Architect, Building Designer, Structural Engineer and/or Interior Designer.
Route 1:
Use our professional Project Management service
One of our professional Project Managers will manage the planning and building consent process on your behalf. Keeping you informed of progress and issues throughout.
Route 2:
Use your own independent Project Manager or self-manage your project through the planning and consents stage.
Our Construction Team mobilises and begins work on site
One of our professional Project Managers will be assigned to manage the construction and installation stage of your project. Our Project Manager will manage the project logistics and our on-site team of skilled and experienced trades and crafts people. Our Project Manager will meet with you regularly throughout the Construction Stage to discuss progress and issues.
The Construction Stage commences with Structural building works like groundworks and foundations, basements, extensions and loft conversions and progresses to general building like roofing, framing, insulation and dry lining along with the installation of the mechanical and electrical elements like heating and plumbing before concluding with Interior finishing details like kitchens, bathrooms, joinery, flooring, lighting, tiling, decorating and other surface finishes.
The realisation of the design
Construction work on site is completed and the mechanical and electrical installation is tested and commissioned. All certificates and guarantees are provided to you in a comprehensive pack along with all relevant instruction manuals and user guides.
Our expert aftercare and post construction support specialists provide a maintenance and support service for all projects if required/requested.
