We have recently been successful on several lucrative contracts for our building contractor clients.

Looking forward to all sites re-opening early April (hopefully).
Darby and Associates Chartered Quantity Surveyors were engaged to provide full estimating, tender and post-contract quantity surveying services for a fit-out of a medical centre for Dr. Andre Nel of The Hair, Skin and Wellness Clinic. The project consisted of a full fit-out of a first floor shell and core “grey box” including full mechanical and electrical services, suspended ceilings and partitions, floor coverings, joinery, internal doors and painting. The project was completed just one week over the twelve week programme by Shelbounre Engineering / OFOS Limited. The project came in under budget for a variety of reasons but mainly due to a team-led approach from all design team members, contractor and client.
