Kempton Carr Croft has Chartered Building Surveyors specialising in contract administration. Read on to see how we plan, negotiate, support and manage effective contracts for buildings, construction and renovation projects on behalf of our clients. 

Project management, contract administration and creating building improvement specifications are very rewarding jobs for our surveyors. It’s always nice to be able to see a building progress from the first inspection to an often drastically improved or completely new state at the end of the project and building works. 

The Building Surveyors that conduct this type of work at Kempton Carr Croft are excellent project managers, pay close attention to detail and have the skills, experience and expertise to ensure building projects remain compliant and regulated, whilst meeting specification and budget requirements. 

Case Study

Between October 2017 and August 2018 we worked for The Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead to prepare a specification of works, obtain tenders and oversee repair works needed a Hines Meadow Multi Storey Car Park in Maidenhead. The project was completed to our client’s satisfaction, within agreed timescales and within budget, and we’re sure your’ll agree that the before and after pictures speak for themselves! The pay and display multi-story car park located on Crown Lane in Maidenhead has 1280 spaces over seven levels and took several months to refurbish.
