Alongside the work that we do we might need the input of a specialist depending on your project. Most common are:
Structural Engineer: They will design any steel work support or confirm any other structural support. Where possible we will identify where their input is required and supply them with a package of drawings to base their calculations on.
Energy Assessor: Where there might be a possibility of heat loss they will provide calculations to prove effectiveness.
Planning Consultant: Usually for new builds or for potentially contentious applications a planning consultant can put together a statement to accompany an application and liaise with planning officers.
Arboriculturalist: If there are tress close to a project we will need a report to confirm that they will not be damaged.
We will advise on whether or not we need to consult with any specialists. We have working relationships with all these specialists and can liaise with them on your behalf.
When we quote for the work we will endeavour to give you an idea of cost of any specialist assistance.
