MASTER PLANNING SERVICES
Master planning, also referred to as urban planning or city planning, is a comprehensive long-term strategic process that encompasses a broad vision for the development AND growth of an area, whether it’s a single site or an entire city.
It requires consideration for land use, transport, community needs, environment, local culture, economy, and public spaces bringing these elements together to create a sustainable and liveable space.
FEASIBILITY STUDIES
We take pride in offering our clients in-depth, versatile feasibility studies aimed at ensuring that every aspect of the project is meticulously evaluated and planned.
Our service begins with a thorough on-site evaluation, followed by a comprehensive study of site context, existing planning conditions, legal restrictions, planning constraints, and potential environmental impacts.
We consider every possible facet, including density options, construction costs, anticipated project duration, return on investment, and other potential market trends that might inflate costs or demand.
ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
Architectural design is at the very core of what we do at GWH. It has the profound potential to enhance the end result and increase the overall value of a building project.
At GWH, our all-encompassing and thoughtful methodology as architectural design consultants is rooted in the principles of sound design. When these principals are properly grasped and incorporated into a project, the importance of excellent architectural design is impossible to ignore.
CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION SERVICES
At GWH, we fully understand that the success of a project lies not just in the ingenuity of its design, but also in the effective handling of contractual obligations throughout the construction process. We aim to ensure that our projects excel in terms of efficiency, cost-effectiveness, legality and timely execution.
We are closely involved at every stage of the construction process, enabling a seamless transition from design to reality for our clients.
PLANNING APPLICATIONS
GWH have a high success rate in achieving planning permission. We can guide your project through every aspect of the planning process and coordinate all the relevant documents required to support your application whether it be a new building, extensions or refurbishments, including specialised conservation and listed building projects.
LISTED BUILDING APPLICATIONS
We have a thorough knowledge of designing projects for the alteration and extension of listed buildings. We can navigate through the application process allowing you to create a development designed for modern life but ensuring the original building is sustained for future generations.
PLANNING APPEALS
In architecture and construction, dealing with planning permission can often be convoluted and challenging. Any project can be subjected to a range of planning policies and regulations in order to promote suitable development.
However, there are times when authorities may refuse applications or apply stringent conditions, complicating your path to completing your development plans. This is where GWH can become an invaluable partner.
ARCHITECTURAL VISUALS
GWH can offer you a range of exterior and interior architectural visualisations for both residential and commercial projects, with a level of detail tailored to your individual needs and budget. From our 3D models, we can help bring your project to life, or even take you on real-time CGI walkthrough giving you a fully immersive experience and an opportunity to view a life-like representation of your finished project
BUILDING REGULATIONS
Building Regulations set the minimum standards which are required for virtually every type of construction project. GWH can advise you on the best construction methods and materials for overall performance and cost efficiency.
Our team of professionals work closely with local authority building control departments, approved inspectors and external consultants, and have the knowledge and expertise to produce the full package of information required for obtaining Building Regulations approval.
TENDER DOCUMENTATION
For many larger projects, the work is put out to tender to a number of contractors and subcontractors.
GWH can put together a series of packages, with drawings and specifications for your project which makes the tender easier for the contractor to price, as well as streamlining the comparison between tenders.
