Character Conservation often partners with other heritage sector professionals and specialist organisations according to project scope and client requirements.
Our combined projects focus exclusively on the historic environment, invariably dealing with complex and sensitive issues in building conservation and the environmental challenges posed modern living requirements constrained by traditional construction practice. Every project is unique and we bring together the best-equipped team to deliver the optimal end result.
