  Torr An Albanaich

In our formal Consultancy arrangement with Gibbon Lawson McKee Ltd. Building Surveyors and Architects we have provided QS services including preparing tender documents and the cost management for a number of projects (see also Castles and Centotre

New Build House

MQSN - QS service

Value £1.25M

We were very pleased to have provided cost control services for the building of Sir Cameron Macintosh's new house on the banks of Loch Nevis. There is no access at all by road and all the labour and materials all had to be transported to the site by sea from Mallaig. The walls are constructed using the innovative  Beco Wallform polystyrene permanent insulated formwork system with the outer skin formed from stone found on the shoreline. The house's name "Torr-An-Albanaich" means "knoll (hill) of the Scotsman". Costing and controlling such a project has been quite a "challenge", solved by the use of an innovative procurement solution!.

CDM Co-ordination
 

We are delighted announce we have recently been appointed for The CDM-C Framework service for 2009-2011 with West Lothian Council Construction Services for projects between £50K and £1m.

Weslo Housing Management appointed us  for both QS and CDM service to take forward their 2009-10 maintenance programme.

Already in 2009 we have completed cost plans for two new projects. The first is Collieston Community Centre with Reiach and Hall and the second is a new hotel block at The Quay in Musselburgh for Seagull Leisure.

Andrew McLeman quoted in the press in 2008 and now in 2009 asked to pen an article on the cost implications of having only single bed rooms in future Scottish hospitals - see the articles 
here

On site at present are two £1m house extensions/
refurbishments  The first  near Loch Lomond and the second one in East Lothian. 

The Benjamin Tindall designed Luffness Castle extension is now complete and the Z1 Youth Bar for Girvan Youth Trust has recently opened to rave reviews.

Hopefully the on hold project in Lanarkshire for  Maggie's Cancer Caring  Centres, is now also back on track.
