OUR APPROACH

The properties surveyed ranged from historic city centre located converted residences to a purpose built 8,000m2 facility which opened in 2014.

The sensitive nature of occupied buildings meant that careful planning and preparation was crucial to ensure the smooth running and delivery of the project.

NIFES carried out surveys of all buildings and consulted with building users and relevant Trust employees in order to collect all data.

SUMMARY
