Service Description

At BCR we can provide you with advice on how to approach your retrofit project, whether your property is of modern or traditional construction. We cover Kent to include Thanet, Margate, Ramsgate, Broadstairs, Cliftonville & Canterbury. Using a holistic, ‘whole building’ approach, this includes the assessment of the key repairs and maintenance required before considering the range of measures available plus advice on potential risks and unintended consequences. We also consider ways to reduce your energy demand and advise on moisture management, insulation, air tightness, draught proofing and ventilation. Existing heating and hot water systems are reviewed and options assessed for renewable technologies. We can also offer guidance on sustainability, low and zero carbon including material choices and embodied carbon for retrofit measures. Project implementation and timeline staging of proposed measures is appraised based on the industry recognized strategy of context, coherence, capacity and caution. For traditional, historic, listed buildings and properties in a conservation area we also advise on possible limitations and restrictions ensuring that any proposed measures are compatible with the building fabric and function. For these buildings our additional qualifications and competencies include: Energy Efficiency Measures for Older and Traditional Buildings Repair and Maintenance of Traditional (pre-1919) Buildings Understanding Building Conservation – endorsed by English Heritage All our professional guidance relating to the historic built environment is aligned with the overriding British Standard; BS 7913 Guide to the Conservation of Historic Buildings.
