We realise client aspirations by combining sympathetic design with pragmatic solutions in a sustainable way to preserve and enhance historic sites and buildings.

Examples of our heritage experience

Examples of our heritage experience

We have many years of experience undertaking refurbishment and alterations / extensions of listed and historic buildings. We have recently worked on Caernarfon and Ruthin Castles, Holyhead Primary School and Salford Cathedral. We work on projects for clients such as UNICEF’s HQ in Geneva, the Irish Embassy and the Royal College of Music in London as well as The Welsh Assembly Government Life Sciences Hub. We also have an ongoing programme of works with the Diocese of Shrewsbury which covers Shropshire, Cheshire and The Wirral. Grade 1 listed building experience include the recently re-opened Buxton Crescent Hotel and Thermal Spa, National Museum of Wales, Welsh National Library.

Keeping buildings operational

Keeping buildings operational

Whilst the delivery of listed building refurbishment or essential maintenance work can be seen by many as challenging if not impossible, we have efficiently and successfully delivered a number of projects with listed status much to the delight of our clients and local heritage bodies.

Our design and project management role involves us in strategic scheduling of works to enable clients to continue day to day operations where required, with tried and tested systems in place to ensure due safeguards are in place, protecting staff and customers.
