Technical Information

I have known and seen work undertaken by Hutton+Rostron for over 20 years.  I have always been impressed by their professional approach and depth of knowledge in the field of building surveys and pathology.

When it comes to seeking expert advice on the condition of the timber in an old building we turn to Hutton+Rostron whom we know we can rely upon to give a thorough and efficient appraisal which we can then use to develop the scope of the repairs.

We have worked with Hutton + Rostron over many years now, and find them knowledgeable, professional, helpful and practical.  They understand both the needs of historic buildings and the forces driving their alteration, which means that their expert advice is always framed in a suitable way.  We greatly enjoy our relationship with them, and look forward to many more years of collaboration.

H+R have provided a great service; I’m particularly happy with the high level of technical knowledge of their staff and willingness to take time to explain what they are doing and why.  I thoroughly recommend them.

Squire and Partners have worked closely with Hutton + Rostron on a number of projects, including the UNISON Headquarters and 74 St James’s Street.

We have been impressed by their depth of knowledge of historic buildings and look forward to working with them again in the future.

Having worked as Project Manager on a number of high-value, listed houses, there is in my opinion clear benefit and value to a project in having H+R on board at the earliest stage possible.

Understanding the hidden condition of a historic building is crucial in making accurate budget and programme estimations. Hutton + Rostron provide an unrivalled service in this sector allowing us to make informed decisions and mitigate the risks of historic building fabric before they materialise. Hutton + Rostron have provided input on a number of Walton Wanger projects, providing us with a range of environmental investigations, which have enabled the design process and contract negotiations to be more accurate and more robust.

Hutton + Rostron and Sandberg have enjoyed a long standing and valued professional relationship and expect this to continue and develop in the future.  Our work together ranges from the routine to the quirky, with the latter often being the most fascinating and therefore enjoyable!

Now that we have reached the end of the works at Great Portland Street, I would like to thank you and your team for all your efforts. The reports on existing condition provided by the team at Hutton + Rostron were invaluable and helped us de-risk the project for GPE. Equally your assistance throughout the project where unforeseen issues arose was gratefully received.

A full service through pre-construction, construction and early occupation.
