With the resources we have at Ashray Construction Limited from our own design and build projects we were able to pull together a high level floor plan with detail around the electrical, plumbing and joinery setup to help shape the clients thinking around where they wanted to position things and to create a detailed view of the project.

Building Control Plan Approval

Ashray Construction Limited pulled together the specification required for the building control approved inspector to provide full plan approval for works to proceed.

Having been through the detailed design with the client, Ashray Construction Limited then pulled together a detailed cost schedule for all of the clients requirements in a structure that the client understood (no technical building jargon) but would also still be for any building contractor to price.

With the detailed design and pricing schedule in hand Ashray Construction Limited issued a formal tender and managed this process across 10 vendors. These vendors were carefully selected in conjunction with the client.
This process required managing site visits and pricing with vendors and then consolidating all quotes in a summary that would provide an easy way for the client to compare prices and have full transparency on what vendors were and were not including for final selection.

With the vendor selected Ashray Construction Limited compiled all the relevant documentation for construction as contract documents. Meetings were held in our Kings Cross offices between the client and the contractor to agree terms and execute the build contract.
Ashray Construction Limited acts as the first point of contact in the unlikely event of any contract disputes.
