Retrofitting Houses

By assessing, researching and providing solutions to take you from a strategy report through to a retrofit, we ensure you continue to protect and restore your building fabric safely and sustainably.

Updated client policy surrounding the environmental impact of buildings has championed a shift in priority for developers, with sustainability now high on the agenda. We can help you navigate retrofitting your assets; renewing buildings to encompass sustainability accreditations through a flexible approach of assessing specific requirements for your building.

With trusted input from the outset, we will take the time to test and challenge the brief and work with you to define and shape the core objectives. We will consider the end users, cost, disruption, programme, risk and opportunity.

With expertise across a vast range of asset types, we can deliver retrofits in many different forms, whether that be within a historic estate or tired building. We problem solve to provide the impetus to challenge assets which would have once been left redundant.

With sustainability across developments now measurable, we will guide you to take the next steps in future-proofing your building, preserving and extending the lifespan of your assets.
