Building Surveying
Our building surveying services encompass defect analysis, contract administration, and project management for residential and commercial properties. We ensure compliance with planning regulations, health and safety standards, and environmental legislation. Our team provides cost consultancy, feasibility studies, and expert witness services, leveraging over 30 years of experience to deliver tailored solutions for property maintenance, refurbishment, and new builds.
Passivhaus Design
We offer certified Passivhaus design solutions to create energy-efficient buildings that reduce carbon emissions. Our services include PHPP modelling, thermal performance analysis, and integration of renewable technologies. With a dedicated Passivhaus-certified designer, we optimise building fabric, orientation, and ventilation systems to meet rigorous environmental standards while ensuring occupant comfort and affordability.
Architecture
Our architectural services focus on innovative, client-centric design across residential, educational, and public sector projects. We specialise in feasibility studies, planning applications, and construction packages, combining creativity with technical expertise. Our approach prioritises sustainability, using materials like hempblock to reduce embodied carbon and modular construction methods to minimise waste and site impact.
BIM Services
We implement Level 2 BIM maturity to enhance project collaboration and data management. Our BIM services support design coordination, clash detection, and lifecycle management, ensuring efficient project delivery. By adhering to ISO 19650 standards, we provide clients with accurate digital representations of their projects, improving transparency and reducing risks during construction.
Visualisation
Our visualisation team creates photorealistic renderings and accurate visual representations (AVRs) to communicate design concepts. These tools support planning applications, marketing campaigns, and client presentations, ensuring stakeholders fully understand proposed developments. We produce high-quality still images and hoarding visuals to promote projects during construction phases.
