Architects & Designers
At Chatwins QS Ltd we work closely with Architects & Designers to provide cost led design solutions at planning stage, as well as commercial & contractual management during the construction phase.
COST PLANS & ESTIMATES
We work collaboratively with architects from the earliest design stages to develop clear, informed cost plans and budget estimates based on initial concepts and planning-level drawings. This early cost input allows designs to be tested and refined against the client’s budget, reducing the risk of progressing planning applications for schemes that are not financially viable.
Following feasibility and planning, we prepare fully detailed estimates that itemise all elements of the proposed works. These provide clients with a transparent understanding of anticipated project costs and establish a robust benchmark for assessing competitive tenders, supporting informed decision-making and effective cost control as projects move toward delivery.
CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION
At Chatwins QS Ltd, our Contract Administration service ensures your building project is managed in strict accordance with the agreed contract. We act as an impartial professional throughout the construction phase, issuing instructions, assessing variations, reviewing payment applications, monitoring progress, and maintaining accurate records.
Our role keeps the project compliant, transparent, and properly documented — reducing risk for everyone involved.
