We’re proud of our long-standing award-winning history in conservation and conversion work in the highly specialised heritage sector. It’s a privilege for us to play our part in the life of extraordinary buildings, and in many cases breathe new life into them or sympathetically help in their adaptation to the contemporary world around them. Our approach illustrates that we understand the key elements in working in this sector.
- Repairs and alterations to listed or historic buildings require a unique depth of knowledge of materials and building techniques beyond that of the structural design of new buildings
- We make sure we understand how your building was originally constructed, including research of any subsequent alterations, which allows us to help preserve the way the structure works
- A key part of our role is to work closely with specialist conservation architects, Local Authorities and English Heritage representatives to explore design solutions sensitively
- We will meet you at a property that you are considering purchasing to give an early opinion, provide a structural survey or initial consultation
Our extensive track record in the Conservation & Historic Buildings sector has seen us:
- work with buildings from all periods in history that need repair, domestic conversion or industrial change of use
- included in projects ranging from small re-modelling refurbishments through to reconstructive works
- work with country estates, religious organisations, public buildings and universities throughout the UK
- develop a strong commitment to provide a historic building with a sustainable future
- become one of only a handful of consulting civil & structural engineers who are accredited on The Green Register of Construction Professionals
