Collect The Project Record
Ask for the available conservation documents, approvals, specifications, earlier investigations and coating history. Check which version applies to the current project.
Do Not Assume Removal Is Approved
Cleaning, paint removal, testing and repairs can affect existing fabric. Establish the relevant approval requirements and qualified specialist input before specifying intrusive work.
Separate Coordination From Specialist Advice
Scope can help organise the evidence, define investigation needs and coordinate the works. Heritage, engineering and other regulated advice must come from the appropriate qualified professional where required.
General project-planning information. The appropriate approach depends on the building, the agreed scope and any specialist advice or approvals required.
