East of England
Heritage advice across East Anglia.
Timber frame, lime render, pargeting, flint and thatch — some of the oldest surviving domestic fabric in England.
We advise owners, architects and contractors throughout East Anglia — from first thoughts about a project, through pre-application discussions with the conservation officer, to the specification of repairs on site. Work is carried out remotely and on site, with a free 30-minute video consultation to begin.
Early engagement is where money is saved. A refusal, a redesign or a remedial contract after the wrong materials have gone in typically costs far more than getting the advice in place before the first drawing is issued.
