Free Initial Consultations

We offer all our new clients a free and no obligation initial consultation to discuss your project. 

As with any new project, it's important we fully understand what you are hoping to achieve.  If you are at a pre-planning stage, we can look at your plans and offer advice on the design and discuss various build methods. If you have had planning granted, we will gladly advise you on build methods that can save you time and money. 

After we have spoken on the phone, it is normal for us to meet our clients on site. We are able to discuss build options and the project in even more detail. We are more than happy to meet other build professionals on site also, including architects, designers, project managers and surveyors.  We are also more than happy to work on a collaborative basis throughout the project itself. 

Once we have considered your plans, your timeline and your budget, we will prepare you an estimate for the cost of the basement build.  

We are fully compliant with government Covid guidelines.
