A: We’ve worked on developments ranging from 10-unit townhouse complexes to 200+ apartment towers, including mixed-use developments with retail and commercial elements. Our 5D BIM workflow scales effectively for any project size.

A: Absolutely. We regularly estimate mixed-use projects combining residential, retail, office, and parking elements. We provide separate cost breakdowns for each use category and handle the interface complexities between different uses.

A: For planning-stage feasibility estimates based on concept drawings, we can typically provide a cost range within 2-3 days. This uses benchmarks and parametric estimating appropriate for early-stage decision making.

A: Because we work with 5D BIM and unit type libraries, we can quickly recalculate costs for different unit mixes within hours. This includes adjusting the balance between 1-bed, 2-bed, and 3-bed apartments.

A: Yes, we can provide separate cost breakdowns for market-rate and affordable housing units, accounting for specification differences and any grant funding implications. We understand Section 106 requirements and help optimise the affordable housing mix.

A: Yes, we regularly prepare cost breakdowns by construction phase, building block, or release phase. This is particularly useful for staged developments where different blocks are built at different times or for phased funding requirements.

A: We rely on the client’s ground investigation reports to assess foundation requirements. For sites with varying conditions, we zone the development and apply appropriate foundation solutions (piled, raft, strip footings) based on the geotechnical recommendations for each zone.

A: Priced per package, quoted before we start. No hourly billing and no fee for scope we did not agree. Fees scale with project size and complexity, and express service (4-5 days) carries a premium. Contact us for a quote for your project.
