Working all over the UK on numerous projects of all sizes including some very nice ecclesiastical projects and a project comprising of dozens of Health Centres up North is keeping the wheels turning and us busy.

Lets hope things are finally turning around after a few lean years for everyone in the Construction sector.]]>Sun, 20 Nov 2011 14:23:03 +0000http://www.measuredbuildingsurveys.net/2/post/2011/11/november-continues-to-impress.htmlWell November started off well but has just got much much better, enquiries and work is pouring in consistently its nice to see. Long may it continue. ]]>Tue, 18 Oct 2011 18:38:31 +0000http://www.measuredbuildingsurveys.net/2/post/2011/10/a-busy-few-months.htmlWell we must be doing something right, enquiries have increased over the last couple of months and although other areas of the business are quiet, surveying projects have more than taken up any slack. Not sure how others are finding things, but its nice to see a bit more consistency than for as long as I can remember. ]]>Mon, 04 Jul 2011 16:29:42 +0000http://www.measuredbuildingsurveys.net/2/post/2011/07/nhs-trusts-and-national-charities.htmlWe have recently carried out Measured Surveys for  NHS Trusts and National Charities on some quite unusual sites around the UK. Its nice to get working on some more unique types of buildings for a change, instead of the run of the mill stuff that we all are used too. ]]>Sun, 06 Mar 2011 18:08:37 +0000http://www.measuredbuildingsurveys.net/2/post/2011/03/keeping-busy.htmlEnquiries have pouring in all month and we are winning a significant amount of business for some Blue Chip clients and private customers alike.

Its pleasing to see such a diverse range of enquiries and it seems like things are generally picking up all over.
