How Building Surveyors Support School Projects in Cornwall — From Classrooms to New Builds

Schools across Cornwall are adapting to changing needs, from expanding classrooms to building new modern facilities. But getting a project right requires careful planning, design, and management.

 

Surveying & Feasibility

 

Assessing the existing site, identifying constraints, and advising on realistic options.

 

Drawings & Planning Applications

 

Producing existing and proposed drawings for application purposes, preparation and submission of the required applications, and handling any planning submission queries.

 

Tendering

 

Helping schools get competitive, fair contractor quotes.

 

Contract Administration

 

Acting as Contract Administrators to ensure that the project is completed in line with the agreed contract. This service typically includes regular site visits and meetings with the client and contractor to assess progress of the contracted works, dealing with any agreed variations or additional items to the original contract, assessing any submitted valuations or requests for payment from the contractor, and ensuring that both parties fulfill their obligations in line with the agreed terms.

 

Sustainability Focus

 

Meeting modern standards for energy efficiency, accessibility, and safety.
