I am a quantity surveyor with over 25 years experience, 16 years of which are postgraduate working.

In this time I have worked for cost consultancies, main contractors, developers, sub-contractors and private individuals.

I have a depth of experience and can bring this to benefit your project.

I can produce cost estimates for all types of building and civil engineering works and present these professionally to help your business win work or if you are an individual to price check a builders quote you have received.

If you require someone to step in and represent you if your project is experiencing financial difficulties or you have a problem builder or subcontractor who is failing in their contractual obligations we can step in to represent you or your business and help bring the matter to a favourable resolution.

ESTIMATING

We offer a complete estimating service for main contractors, developers, smaller builders and private individuals.

Wether you require an estimate for a large works package or an extension to be priced we can turn around any quote within a reasonable timeframe (This will be agreed prior to our commencement)

We use state of the art Conquest estimating Software to produce 100% accurate take offs that are then fed into our extensive and constantly evolving price data base to produce accurate costings for all jobs, these estimates allow for regional cost differences in the UK so will suit all clients irrespective of their location in the country

We can produce estimates for may different types of building including:

Residential Buildings

Commercial Units

Offices

Extensions

External Works (hard & soft landscaping)

High Spec Fit outs

Refurbishment

Our rates are derived from the latest market sources as well as leading cost indices such as the BCIS and SPONS price books.

Measures are conducted using the NRM 1, NRM 2 and/or SMM7 method of measurement, however we qre also happy to produce Bills of Approximate Quantities so called "Builders Quants" measures as these are often favoured for pricng purposes by contractors and clients alike when time schedules are tight.

Meaurement is done from drawings and annotated marked up drawings will be produced to accompany measures.

We will present estimation documents in a professional manner, if you are looking to provide these to a client this will enhance your chance of winning work.

If you are a small business and lack the staff capacity to action large volumes of pricing enquiries we can step in and ensure whatever your clients send you can be turned around and priced within the required deadline and will be very competitively priced.

The advantage of using a freelance QS is that you only pay for the time you need our service and are not tied into expensive salary and National Insurance Employers contributions as would you be by employing a quantity surveyor on a full time basis.
