FAQ

Common questions about development projects

We work under standard JCT contracts — principally JCT Design & Build 2016 and JCT Minor Works — plus bespoke development agreements where your funder requires them. We're comfortable with novation of professional appointments and with the step-in and retention provisions lenders expect, so your finance package stays intact.
Yes. Collateral warranties and third-party rights for funders, purchasers and tenants are a standard contract deliverable — giving them direct recourse that survives even after the main contract completes or if circumstances change. Our professional indemnity cover is held at a level appropriate to the contract value and includes design liability under Design & Build.
We build the Golden Thread from the first design review rather than reconstructing it at the end — every design change, material substitution and inspection logged in a structured digital record aligned to the Building Safety Regulator's requirements. Gateway submissions are prepared by our in-house team as a contract deliverable, protecting your programme and drawdown schedule.
Yes. Monthly cost reports, cash-flow forecasts, drawdown schedules and QS-ready valuations are produced as standard and formatted for monitoring-surveyor review, and we attend lender inspections as part of the service. We've worked on an open-book basis alongside bridging lenders, development-finance institutions and high-street banks.
Our development projects typically run from around £500K to £5M+ in construction value — from multi-unit conversions and HMOs to small new-build schemes, delivered to NHBC standards. We assess each scheme on its merits and are honest about where our experience is strongest before you commit.
Retention follows your contract — usually a small percentage of each valuation held back to practical completion, with the balance released after the defects period once any snagging is cleared. It's a standard funder protection, and we price for it openly from the start so there are no surprises in the cash flow.
