Completed Projects

DDA - Delivering Dynamic Adjustments

We have put together a sample of some of the projects that we have completed in the last few years regarding accessibility of buildings or services.  We hope we have included a broad series of examples of some bad practice and how access has been improved as a result of the work we have undertaken.

Please be aware that the following examples of our work have all been carried out on existing buildings of varying ages and in some cases, within conservation constraints.  As such, we have worked as closely as we possibly could within the requirements of Part M Building Regulations and BS8300:2009 and taking into account our clients' requirements, health and safety issues, the restrictions of the existing buildings and overall access issues to create the most reasonable adjustments possible.

Each of the links below tells a different story.  If you have any queries about these projects or would like to discuss any work that you may be thinking about, please contact us on 01695 581333.
