For UK façade, steel and specialist subcontractors. We embed in your team, capture every variation, serve every notice on time, and protect your final account from the day you sign — not the day you start losing money.
These aren't edge cases. They happen on every project — and they cost you money, time and reputation. We've heard each of these in the first hour of a project rescue call.
From bid-stage risk review to final account and dispute resolution. Each service stands alone — combined, they cover every gap a UK subcontractor faces on a complex package.
Variation account capture, notice tracking, final account negotiation, JCT & bespoke contract administration.
EWN drafting, delay analysis to SCL Protocol, EOT substantiation. Notice windows defended within contract timescale.
Scott Schedule preparation, smash & grab, true-value adjudication, without-prejudice negotiation.
On-site PM, multi-package coordination, programme-driven delivery from pre-construction through handover.
New installs, fire remediation works (PAS 9980 · BSA 2022), AP-led lifts, structure–façade interface, multi-trade clash prevention.
CDM 2015 duty leadership, RAMS review, permit-to-work systems, HSE audit defence and statutory alignment.
Every project we touch is a façade, fit-out or complex specialist package — cladding and the trades that get squeezed are exactly where we work. And we sit on the client side too: the main contractors, employers, freeholders and managing agents who need delivery certainty.
We embed alongside your team — not above it. The relationship is scaled to your pipeline, your risk appetite, and where the project sits in its lifecycle.
Working knowledge from real projects. Clause analysis, programme defence, real adjudication scenarios — written by people who've sat at the table.

Six clauses we always negotiate. Four that should be deal-breakers. The fine print main contractors hope you don't read.
Three rework patterns we've fixed on Central London projects. Where the structure–façade interface fails — and how to defend against it.
Contract and programme review with a chartered partner. We tell you what we'd do differently — whether you hire us or not. The best time to protect your money was before the contract was signed. The second best time is now.
