General construction across the property, from structural repairs to extensions and alterations.
Every property is different, so the starting point is always a look at the building rather than a price over the phone. Once we have seen it you get the scope, the materials and the figures in writing, and nothing begins until you have agreed to them.

Questions about this service
Can we stay in the property during the work?
Often yes, depending on the scope. We will be straight with you about which stages are disruptive and plan around them.
Do you handle permits?
Where the work needs permits or filings, that is covered in the scope so you can see what is included.
How accurate is the initial figure?
The written scope is the accurate one. The planning range on the website is only there to help you start thinking about budget.
