  • Project Tenders/Quotations - We contact at least three Contractors from our list of approved Tradesmen (if you wish, we can also include Contractors of your choosing) and invite them to tender for your job. We evaluate each response, seek any necessary clarifications and provide a written report of our findings and recommendations. We charge a set fee of £125 for this service.

  • Project Management - Our Project Managers know how to make building jobs run smoothly to avoid disputes, over runs and conflicts of interest. This service almost invariably saves far more money than the cost of the service itself and also gives you the peace of mind that your project is in safe hands.

  • Contract Advice & Preparation - The contract is the entire basis of your relationship with the Contractor, it is vital that you get it right upfront to avoid misunderstandings and possible conflicts at later stages. We can advise you on the best form to use and prepare a contract for you for a set fee of £100, or negotiate the contract on your behalf directly with the Contractors, this would involve time related fees.

  • Construction Inspection - If you don't want to go to the cost of a full time Project Manager, our unique onsite inspection service can ensure that build quality is being maintained and that your Contractor is conforming to specifications. Our Inspectors are all experienced professionals and at only £50 per inspection (max. 2hrs on site per visit) this service represents excellent value for money. You will receive a written report of our findings and recommendations if any, together with photographs if relevant, for each visit.

  • Litigation/Arbitration Service - If things have gone wrong on your project and you are in dispute with the Contractor, we can provide expert opinion on the problem. We can arbitrate on your behalf with the Contractor to find an equitable solution, or if all else fails support your case as 'Expert Witnesses' in any proceedings.
