His scope of works includes measured surveys, planning applications, construction drawings, specifications, tendering, contractor selection and delivery of projects. A flexible approach allows clients to use some or all of his services to assist them through the development process. Please see the services section of the website for a more detailed breakdown covering the three mains stages of development.
Services are usually charged as a fixed fee or a percentage of the construction cost depending on the type of project. Freeborough & Co Surveyors Ltd is registered for VAT and regulated by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors.
