McKenna Construction Consultants and their team of qualified Quantity Surveyors and Engineers are here to help you manage those cost uncertainties. Our primary aim is to answer the question that most people intending to undertake a new build, extension or renovation ask – What is it going to cost me?
Feasibility Stage
Most people get the plans prepared and then find out that their budget does not match the plans and materials they have prepared. McKenna Construction Consultants will prepare a detailed cost estimate to see if the project is feasible, while still achieving exactly what you want by offering alternative cost saving measures.
Cost
With labour and materials rising in recent times, we provide the client with a detailed bill of quantities (BOQ) that includes quantity, description of the materials and cost for their project. This can be revisited at a later stage to suit the finances available for the project.
Time
Having a detailed list of the materials required and advice on appropriate project timeframes will enable you to prepare a programme giving you an accurate timeline for your project and help with organising sub-contractors and ordering of materials to site.
Advice
To offer professional cost advice to the client, from industry experience and research of existing and future trends. In addition, advice on health and safety requirements that include: company safety statements, site specific health and safety plans, method statements, risk assessments, safety file preparation and BCAR is also available where necessary.
