Pricing your project
It's a buyer's market
If you need a Home Buyers Survey we recommend J Browne Surveys. We offer building/renovation estimates based on the Home Buyers Survey for buyers who want to understand the scope of work required to bring their potential new home up to scratch before they buy.
This is a paid for service and our estimate may be used to support negotiations in the home-buying process.
Browne & Sons is recommended by many Whitstable estate agents.
All sizes of project
If your project doesn't involve structural changes or planning consent - we work on small projects too - we are ready to scope out your project and discuss specifications and sourcing.
We have lots of experience of working with Victorian and Edwardian properties and can advise on practical solutions that can arise when homeowners want to achieve a contemporary finish in a heritage building.
Drawings are go!
Larger projects requiring structural changes and/or planning consent will require drawings to illustrate and explain the work required.
With your drawings in place, we will meet with you for a detailed briefing and site visit.
This first meeting is all about your vision for your property. We have a lot of experience of working with older Whitstable properties and look forward to hearing about your plans for your home.
Refining the brief
What you really want
Our initial estimate will give you a detailed breakdown of the proposed works.
At this stage, we would expect a client to review their ideas and to consider taking elements in or out of the project.
When you have your final thoughts together, we recommend giving your feedback to us.
We will conduct a second site visit to review any changes to the original estimate and to assess details around site access.
