Professional Endorsements

Over the past 20+ years, Mike has delivered clarity and precision on major projects. Here’s what colleagues and clients say about working with him:

“I’ve worked with Mike on complex multi-package civil engineering projects, where his ability to define clear scopes and specifications prevented increased cost and over-runs. That same precision and foresight will be a huge benefit for homeowners managing extensions or refurbishments.”
— Tony Bagley, Retired Senior Project Manager (formerly NWS & Carillion)

Mike gives thorough and detailed feedback which is allows any necessary corrective actions to be taken at the earliest opportunity. He also recognises the strengths of others and tailors his communications as necessary.I believe that the above, combined with Mike’s thorough understanding of construction contracts and previous experience as a contractor himself, will provide clients with a great degree of comfort that problems will be avoided and certainty of success maximised.”

FAQs

In most cases yes, but if you don’t, we can still prepare a draft Tender Pack. You can also discuss this in your free 15-min call.
The more clarity, the better. We’ll guide you step-by-step and fill gaps with “TBC” placeholders so your builder knows what still needs confirming.
Once you have completed the onboarding form (and had an intake call), your draft Tender Pack is delivered within 14 business days.
Each package includes revisions as stated in the package details to fine-tune your draft. If your design evolves beyond that, we’ll update the spec and terms — additional revisions outside your chosen package are charged at £40 per round.
Yes — that’s the point. The pack lets you compare like-for-like quotes using the same scope of works.
No — we don’t price the works. Builders price against the itemised specification so you can compare apples-to-apples.
Yes. We’ll reference their drawings, calculations and details in your pack.
That’s fine — we can still prepare a Tender Pack. We’ll mark the planning status as “TBC” so builders know it’s subject to approval.
We specialise in domestic projects of all sizes — including extensions, loft conversions, refurbishments, garage conversions, garden rooms, and general home improvements. If it’s a residential project, we can help you prepare a Tender Pack.
We’ll work with you to make sure you’re happy with your Tender Pack. Each package includes revisions as stated in the package details to fine-tune your draft. The final pack (with watermarking removed and issued in the agreed formats) will be released once the balance payment has been received.
The Tender Pack is designed as a pre-contract document to help you get accurate builder quotes. However, once you and your chosen builder both sign the Terms of Agreement, that document can serve as a binding contract for the works.
No. We work from the information you provide (onboarding form, drawings, photos, call notes) to keep the service quick and affordable.
Yes — if you have brands, styles or finishes in mind (e.g., flooring, windows, kitchen units) we’ll capture those in the spec.
That’s rare — most builders actually prefer a Tender Pack because it removes guesswork and makes quoting easier. If a builder resists using it, that can be a red flag — it may suggest they’d rather keep things vague, which can lead to hidden costs or disputes later.
Yes — clients can use the pack to compare builders and shape budgets before deciding to proceed.
We can mark items as Client to Supply or Install so the builder’s scope is crystal clear.
Secure your Tender Pack with a deposit via Stripe. The balance is payable on completion of your pack (as per your package’s revision allowance). Final files (with watermarking removed and in the agreed formats) are released once payment is received.
Yes — start with any package and upgrade if you want more detail or extra revisions.
