Investor & developer FAQs

Development questions answered

Can you build from an existing architectural and engineering tender pack?

Yes. If you have full planning permission and structural calculations, we provide fixed-price main contracting tenders with transparent milestone schedules and comprehensive stage payments.

How do you ensure HMO conversions pass council licensing first time?

We design and build strictly to the specific amenity standards of the local council (e.g. Barnet, Enfield, Haringey), ensuring room sizes, ceiling heights, ventilation, kitchen ratios and fire exit routes meet or exceed requirements before licensing inspections.

Do you handle utility infrastructure and new service connections?

Yes. We manage and coordinate with statutory undertakers for new three-phase electric supplies, water main connections, multi-meter setups and commercial gas installations.
