FAQ
Your Questions, Answered
Find quick answers to the most common questions about our services and process.
Who do you work with?
Schools and academy trusts, businesses, healthcare providers, landlords, developers and private clients.
Can you help a school get funding?
Yes. We prepare and submit CIF bids and, if a bid succeeds, can manage the works it pays for.
Do you only do large projects?
No. We bring the same care to a single survey as to a multi-site programme.
Can you stay involved after handover?
Yes. We offer planned maintenance, compliance tracking and ongoing property management.
How do we start?
Call, email or use the form. We’ll arrange a no-obligation conversation about your building or site.
