WE
PROVIDE A SERVICE TAILORED TO YOUR OLD PROPERTY
-
helping
owners to select decoration, repair and maintenance that works with
the fabric of old buildings - and enhances the appearance
-
advising
on avoiding incompatible modern materials and maintenance regimes -
such as those that may prevent old buildings from 'breathing'
-
seeking
ways to adapt for modern living or install essential modern services
- without damaging the original fabric or appearance
OLD
HOUSE OWNER? WE CAN HELP YOU...
-
keep
up with authentic and appropriate repair and decorative
techniques - magazines, websites and TV are
making homebuyers more discerning
-
prepare
for higher fuel bills - and likely future legislation - requiring
even old houses to be better insulated and energy-efficient
-
assess
the way your old house is coping with anything from dampness to
modern occupancy - and provide a blueprint for its future
maintenance
RESPONSIBLE
FOR COMMERCIAL OLD PROPERTIES?
-
are
customers attracted by your buildings' age and character? - if so we
can advise on keeping the environment authentic
-
do
you need advice relating to conservation areas and listed buildings
or require the preparation of a conservation plan?
-
old
buildings are a financial and environmental investment - it is
becoming more difficult to justify demolition when knowledge,
imagination and new adaptable technologies can now be applied to
keeping them working

WHY
ENGAGE AN ARCHITECT?
-
every
old building is unique and needs individual assessment - there is
general advice available in the media but no 'one-size-fits-all'
solution
-
we
can provide a full 'begining-to-end' architect's service - but we
can also examine individual building problems - however small
we are
happy to provide initial - or ongoing - specialist input to assist other consultants, in-house teams or
even homeowners' DIY - whichever is appropriate
