SERVICES
ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
EXTENSIONS, REFURBISHMENT & CHANGE OF USE
Architectural design services can be broken down into three categories: Feasibility, Planning and Detailed Drawings for Building Regulations and Construction.
There is no standard approach to design as each project is different, but we are guided by the following principles:
-
Working with you to understand your requirements, aspirations and budget.
-
A respect for the historic characteristics that make your building unique.
-
The incorporation of high quality, natural and breathable materials.
-
The sympathetic inclusion of sustainable design features to improve energy performance.
We would be happy to work with you at all stages of the design process to suit your requirements and budget.
PLANNING & LISTED BUILDING APPLICATIONS
Planning in Bath can be challenging - a UNESCO World Heritage site, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and over 5,000 listed buildings.
Our professional experience covers working on buildings in all three categories, tailoring solutions to your requirements while respecting the historic built environment.
Services include planning and listed building applications, working with other consultants as may be necessary during the planning process.
SUSTAINABILITY & ENERGY EFFICIENCY
The climate emergency means that the sustainability of the built environment is becoming ever more important.
Our experience includes creating beautiful, warm and energy-efficient places that respect the character of your historic building.
Using natural, breathable materials and the latest technology we can help raise the EPC rating of your Bath townhouse up to a B.
CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION
Working with the right contractor is vitally important and can be crucial in the success of your project.
We can help with the tender process, choosing the best contractor for your project, administering the JCT building contract and overseeing the quality of the works.
DEFECT ANALYSIS, SURVEYS & REPORTS
We undertake condition surveys and measured building surveys, typically as a precursor to completing further project work. We can identify problems and specify appropriate repair works.
Please note that we do not undertake Home Buyer Surveys or Valuations Reports.
