Firstly thank you for taking the time to look at our web site, we hope it gives you a flavour of who we are as people and what we do as a company. Originally established by Derek Gough in 1993, today Derek oversees the running and management of a practice team that provides professional, timely and accurate costing advice for over 20 years.  We are proud to be a leading provider of specialist building cost analysis to clients and contractors, both personal and corporate.We focus our time, energy, experience and resources into providing what our clients need from us, we listen to what they say, ask the right questions and design the appropriate service for them, we provide the service  they need. Clients need to be happy that we have added real value to the project or there is no point to having a Quantity Surveyor on the project.It doesn’t matter what stage the building project is at – ideally we get involved right at the start, from the outline sketches, that way we can advise the client at all stages so that they understand the impact of the decisions they make, but even at dispute stage, when you think it might be too late, we can add significant value.Having a professional team on your side adds energy and structured communication to the building project and a drive to get things right as a team and on schedule – in short – a successful project.
