Project Management
Our services in designing and adapting homes for disabled individuals has been developed out of many years’ experience. We have been privileged in working with some truly challenging circumstances where a key component for a better life is both suitable and bespoke accommodation, offered in the form of disability adaptations. We have worked with individuals with a whole range of disabilities including spinal and brain injuries and we fully understand a project is more than just bricks and mortar.
The process of good design and excellent communication means working closely with all those involved - not just between the client, design team and contractor, but also with instructing lawyers, case managers, legal deputies, consultant and environmental control engineers, specialist suppliers, occupational therapists, nursing care professionals and others, to ensure the final project is a success.
