Ad Hoc Hourly Support Services for Construction Projects

Ad Hoc Hourly Support Services

Our Ad Hoc Hourly Support Services are a flexible, affordable construction project management option if you plan to oversee your building project yourself. For example, if you’re an experienced self-builder, or are planning a relatively simple home extension or refurbishment project.

However they are also ideal if there are likely to be complexities or unavoidable delays relating to the pre-construction stage of your build. For example as a result of planning constraints or issues relating to the condition or contamination of the building or land.

For this reason this service is also a suitable starting point if you are a commercial property developer or investor.

Our Ad Hoc Hourly Support Service allows you to buy our team’s expertise upfront in 5 or 10 hour chunks and then use this time as and when you need it.

Pre-Construction Phase Support

Whether you’re building a new property, or making improvements to your home, you and your build team will need a set of detailed plans and specifications to refer to.

If you have been working with an architect, then you will probably have started this process. But if are carrying out more minor works, and so do not have full architectural plans, then you’ll need to document this information before you start talking to builders.

Whatever your situation, we usually recommend that you invest some of your hours with one of our building Project Managers to review your plans. We’ll check for errors, omissions and inconsistencies in your documents and make suggestions on how you can improve them.

Likewise our Quantity Surveying team can help you with cost planning and give you advice on budgeting, and value engineering. Read the case study below to find out more.

In short, we’ll help you take steps to ensure you have everything you need written down for your builders to both quote against, and work to. Ad Hoc Hourly Support Services are ideal.

Client Testimonial

“Karim’s confidence-building visits genuinely helped us build a better house with less stress. We couldn’t have had better support. Karim was ‘hands on’ when he needed to be and hands off when he thought we knew what we were doing!”

Construction Phase Support

When you’re ready to start the construction phase of your project we can provide advice on how best to appoint your build team, and what to include in your building contract.

Getting advice from one of our project managers at this stage will save you money later on. You’ll avoid a lot of expensive mistakes or misunderstandings, prevent delays and ultimately get a better result.

Then, once construction starts, one of our project management team can continue to support and help you check the progress of the works.

They can act as your advisor via the phone or videocall, helping to clarify situations or suggesting options or areas for improvement.

Site visits can also be made. It’s often useful to schedule these to coincide with significant events or critical milestones in your project – as outlined in our case study below.
