Historic & Listed Buildings

Conservation, refurbishment & the sensitive management of change

Historic buildings require specialist knowledge and a balanced approach. We understand that older buildings perform differently to modern construction and that conservation principles must be considered alongside practical maintenance and repair.

Our experience ranges from modest period cottages through to Grade I listed buildings, Scheduled Monuments and historic almshouse estates. We provide clear and proportionate advice to private owners, trustees and professional teams responsible for some of the region's most significant buildings.

We undertake quinquennial inspections and planned maintenance surveys for charities, trusts and owners of historic buildings.

These inspections provide a structured assessment of condition and help clients prioritise repairs and plan expenditure over the short, medium and long term.

We are experienced in working with almshouse charities and other custodians of heritage assets, providing practical advice aimed at preserving buildings whilst managing limited resources effectively.

Our services include:

  • Building surveys for listed buildings
  • Heritage Statements
  • Statements of Significance
  • Listed Building Consent support
  • Conservation advice
  • Defect diagnosis
  • Quinquennial inspections
  • Scheduled Monument projects
