"I don't believe in work. I only believe in creating value" - James Blacker

Gary believes that the maximum benefit gained from quantity surveying, cost planning & estimating is at project inception (concept or preliminary stage) and sometimes even before this - when the light-bulb moment occurs.

Whether you are planning a house extension, an industrial development, or a community centre, every building should be considered a "one-off" and the early design stages can make or break a project budget. This is the time critical decisions are that have the most impact on cost and feasibility. 

Once these decisions are made, we can create further value by monitoring and managing costs throughout the design process (milestone cost planning) and by providing value management / option analysis to maintain project budgets and feasibility.

“If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, 

wait until you hire an amateur” - Red Adair

It’s not just about estimating. It’s about controlling costs and removing headaches for you during your build. It's about understanding your project and providing you with the expert advice and support you need.

We do this by being fully engaged in your development and extract maximum value from it using the cost planning process, value engineering and other techniques, which will assist you in making more informed design and cost decisions.

When you engage us, you will be engaging directly with Gary - all the time. He will be personally involved in every aspect of your project and all services are performed and prepared locally.
