Heritage

The UK boasts circa 460,000 listed properties, all of which can’t be demolished, extended or altered without special permission. The volume of listed properties means that they span every sector that our team work in, from housing and healthcare to education and leisure. We are, therefore, extremely experienced in supporting clients throughout the journey to enhance their heritage properties.

Our expert team can ensure your heritage properties are refurbished, expanded and modernised to improve usability, running costs, energy efficiency and accessibility, all the while ensuring that the historical fabric is protected.

Through collaboration with English Heritage we can develop suitable and authorised approaches for all the necessary specialist restoration and cleaning works, as well as the creation of Heritage Protection Plans to ensure the historical fabric is safeguarded against accidental damage.

Heritage restoration works often require any defective assets (such as plaster, ironmongery and joinery) to be replaced with like-for-like solutions that are in keeping with the property. In such instances, our team can liaise with English Heritage to agree solutions that are appropriate and approved.
