WHAT WE PROVIDE
SURVEY &
BRIEF
The first thing we do with any project is to visit your premises to measure your space. Once the survey is complete, we’ll sit down with you to discuss your vision for the space and what your business needs. Our expertise is free of charge, we won’t bill you for any site surveys or drawings.
DESIGN YOUR SPACE
Our expert team of designers will then return to the office to begin work on drawing up your new facilities. We take everything into consideration and create the right solution for you and your business. You’ll receive 2D layouts of your new space complete with furniture layouts and the position of everything within your new workspace.
A COMPREHENSIVE QUOTE
Once the design of your new premises is complete and you’ve signed off on our drawings, we will create a detailed proposal for your project. It will provide a complete breakdown of everything involved within your project and will include the individual costs for each aspect. Allowing you to understand exactly what you’re paying for. We believe transparency is key.

DITCHING DOWNTIME
We understand that the last thing your business needs is downtime. That’s why we create a construction programme that works around your business and avoids downtime as much as possible. If evening or weekend work is required, then that’s what we’ll do. If we are working around your employees whilst they work, we’ll ensure that their health and safety is at the forefront of everything we do.
DEDICATED PROJECT MANAGER
Before the construction of your new workspace begins, you will be assigned your very own project manager for the duration of your project. They will be on hand to answer any questions you may have during the build and will be your one point of call when you visit site. They’ll ensure that your workspace is completed on time, on budget and in a safe manner.
WHERE WE WORK
We would love to be able to help create workspaces for businesses throughout the whole of the UK but unfortunately we can’t. The extra cost to you and the fact that we wouldn’t be able to manage your project to our high standards means that we must set a limit for how far we can work. The area we cover is highlighted to the right. As you can see, we essentially work as far North as Newcastle and as far South as Birmingham. So if your business is situated in an area we cover, get in touch today to discuss your plans for your new workspace.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
PRINCIPAL DESIGNER
For any project that involves multiple contractors, it’s a legal requirement that you, the client appoints a Principal Designer for the project. This may sound like scary stuff, but it’s to ensure the health and safety of both your employees and our construction team. The Principal Designer’s main role is to ensure that all health and safety requirements & building regulations are considered within the design of your new facilities. They must also take into consideration how the finished facilities will be accessible from a maintenance perspective.
Once you have vetted and chosen your Principal designer, you need to formally appoint them and they will then begin designing your new space from the outset of the project. For more information on your duties as a client in relation to appointing a Principal Designer, click here.
PRINCIPAL CONTRACTOR
Before commencing with any project that will involve more than one contractor on site, you as the client must formally appoint a Principal Contractor. They will be responsible for all the sub-contractors that will be working on site and ensuring that the project is running smoothly.
Even if you as the client would like to use your own sub-contractors for elements of the project, they must fall under the umbrella of the Principal Contractor. This is because legally, the Principal Contractor is responsible for ensuring the health and safety of all workers on site and making sure each sub-contractor knows how to carry out their duties safely.
