Quantity surveying in Lincolnshire

Sub-contract orders, monthly valuations and applications, pricing and agreeing variations, remeasures, sub-contract payments, cost and value reconciliation and final accounts. In short, the commercial machinery of the construction phase, run properly, without you carrying a full time QS on the payroll.

Yes, and it is one of the most common reasons people call us. Plenty of good contractors turn over serious money with a director doing the surveying in the evenings. That works right up until the month you are running three jobs at once. We provide the QS function on a project or retained basis, scaled to what you actually need.

We can. The earlier commercial controls go on the better, but mid-project is very workable. We start by reviewing the contract, the orders placed, what has been valued and what change has happened without being priced. That first review usually finds money nobody had accounted for, in both directions.

By capturing them as they happen. Change agreed verbally on site and priced eight months later is the single biggest cause of a difficult final account. We price change against the contract mechanism, agree it while the evidence is fresh, and keep a running record so the account closes cleanly.

We issue notices and certificates on time and in the correct form, which protects your position and keeps you compliant. Payment terms and notice requirements vary by contract, so we work from your actual contract rather than a general rule, and we would always suggest taking proper advice on anything contentious.
