To be successful in building consultancy these days, you need to offer far more than the basic service.
One company that is making a great success of this approach is Lamberts Chartered Surveyors.
Today, the company has a number of interlinked divisions dealing with residential and commercial property management and valuation, agency, corporate recovery and leasehold enfranchisement, in addition to building consultancy.
Divisional director, Paul Vanson explains, “The fact that we can offer our clients a wide range of services is of benefit in a number of ways. It enables us to be something of a one-stop shop for our clients, thereby reducing costs but it also means that they come to think of as more than just a property management or valuation company. Most of our consultancy work today comes either from referral by our existing clients or through our other divisions.”
In recent times, Lamberts Building Consultancy has been involved in a number of diverse projects including the re-roofing of a 400 sq.m roof, fire reinstatement of a boutique hotel in Kensington London and the conversion of a former factory building to 8 flats with 2 commercial units. The division also undertakes professional work including party wall instructions, dilapidations, pre-acquisition surveys, schedules of condition and rebuilding cost assessments. CAD services are also provided in house and the division regularly undertake measured surveys, lease plans and building design for a variety of clients.
In summary, Paul says, “We are able to provide a mix of experience, expertise,
and modern IT resources to ensure effective coordination and communication throughout a project for our clients.”
