Sustainability

The construction industry faces a whole new set of challenges from tougher government initiatives on climate change and sustainability post-Kyoto and Bali.

Why risk damaging costs in terms of money, time and reputation from not understanding or complying with the relevant rules? We keep clients up to speed with regulatory developments and help them navigate potential pitfalls throughout a project.

We advise on such initiatives as:

• whole life costing of developments
• the adaptability of buildings
• the introduction of a new cost for sustainable homes
• a new planning policy limiting carbon emissions.
