Heritage Buildings
Work on heritage listed buildings is varied and highly specialised. The beauty and character of the building needs to be maintained and enhanced which adds a degree of complexity to these projects.
Often, the aspects of the building that give it its unique characteristics require a unique building approach. Matching surface materials and finishes, managing regulatory bodies and satisfying interested stakeholders requires a higher level team on the project.
Our team at Built have the skills and experience to manage the unique characteristics of heritage work, even down to recording the progress of works for historical purposes.
