Our Services

Our Client-Side Project Oversight service is designed to give you independent, experienced guidance throughout the construction phase of your project. Acting on your behalf, we provide ongoing oversight to ensure works are delivered in line with budget, programme, and quality expectations. We monitor progress, challenge costs, and identify potential issues early, helping to keep your project on track and avoid unnecessary delays or overspend. With a practical, hands-on approach, we act as your trusted advisor, providing clear communication and informed decision-making at every stage of the build.

Most clients choose the Standard Oversight package for the best balance of support, cost control, and hands-on involvement.

Our Statutory Agreements service provides practical, construction-led support in navigating and negotiating key planning and infrastructure agreements, including Section 106 obligations, Section 73 amendments, and adoption agreements such as Section 104 and Section 38. With hands-on experience in development projects and working alongside specialist planning and legal professionals, we help clients understand, challenge, and optimise the requirements placed on their schemes. Our focus is on reducing unnecessary costs, improving deliverability, and ensuring agreements align with the practical realities of construction and development.

We support clients by reviewing proposals, identifying opportunities to amend or negotiate terms, and coordinating with specialist advisors where required to achieve the most practical and cost-effective outcome for the project.

We bridge the gap between planning, legal, and construction realities to ensure agreements are not only compliant, but also practical, deliverable, and commercially viable.
