Conservation and Historic Buildings


	Structural Engineering Civil Engineering Transport and Highways Land Surveying (Geomatics) Building Surveying Specialist Expert Services

Our building surveying department has an established interest and experience in historic building conservation.
We understand and appreciate the philosophy underlying this work and endeavour to achieve sympathetic and practical solutions to all issues.
We recognise that worthy buildings need not be listed buildings or ancient monuments and apply our conservation skills in context, to those buildings in conservation areas or where they play an important part in their environment.
We aim to apply the same principles under all circumstances to a level commensurate with the building, its location and commercial requirements.

Surveys and reports may be carried out as single instructions or as a part of a more comprehensive brief encompassing any of the above services, and will work with other departments as required. All project sizes and types are undertaken.

We offer the following services associated with historic buildings which can be adapted to suit the specific needs of the client and building:
