Designing the Future
Our commercial building consultancy team is made up of three key components:- Architecture, Building Surveying and Project Management. Within the property development cycle, we deliver core advice related to the development, construction, refurbishment and occupational needs of clients.
The team provides an extensive range of fully integrated services which handles all building related matters for property owners, investors and occupiers in both the private and public sectors.
Our integrated team of Architects, Building Surveyors and Project Managers is dedicated to fulfilling the current and future business objectives of every client. All advice is practical and cost effective, with input from commercially aware colleagues in James Barr Investment, Agency and Valuation departments.
This collective strategic thinking process deploys an extensive skill base which is of maximum benefit to any client.
