Areas of Practice


ARCHITECTS AND DESIGNERS

As the building process has become more complex, due to issues such as leaky homes, coupled with constantly changing materials and prices, it is increasingly difficult to accurately estimate the cost of building.

If square metre or “ball park” figures are used to guide clients in making budget decisions, the final cost could be vastly different. This could lead to non-payment of your invoices, disputes or legal action.

We have an accurate and detailed residential estimating system that can be used with confidence at any stage of the design, to set budgets and define scope of work.

RESIDENTIAL BUILDERS

We have an accurate and detailed residential estimating programme that can be used with confidence by Builders to provide quotations to home owners.

The estimate can also be used as an "open book" document between the builder and home owner, so that all costs, overheads, margins and labour rates are transparent and can be agreed upon before work is started on site.

We can accommodate all types of design from the simple to the most complex and from new builds to alterations and pop-tops.

HOME OWNERS

We can provide accurate estimates of your project to give you confidence in your budget, before you commit to detailed design drawings.
