Devonshire Partnership

Devonshire Partnership are Chartered Building Surveyors and Project Managers who like working with committed and involved clients who share our enjoyment and desire to deliver projects.

Our services are designed to suit your needs and delivered by experienced professionals. We want to give you a personal, independent and fully evaluated service with the best possible solutions to meet your commercial and time constraints.

We work best by being 'hands on', working closely with you and the project team, pooling considerable experience on all types of commissions as project managers, employer's agents, contract administrators or general property and construction advisors.

Our past projects have included work on City banks and institutions, schools and colleges, diocesan and charity properties and numerous prestigious private houses. Much of our work is repeat business based on our clients' full confidence to share their goals and aspirations with us.

Our experience tells us that understanding the commercial and technical dynamics of your business is the key to translating your needs into successful projects.

By working with many different professional advisors and contractors, we have accumulated knowledge over the years to enable us to manage and deliver each project to its anticipated and planned conclusion.

As no two projects are the same, the scope of our involvement will match any new challenge. What is consistent is our ability to consider each project on its merits and arrive at an innovative, tailored solution.

In all transactions, involving property and land there are numerous and often complex negotiations required to achieve success.

Our professional approach, utilising our knowledge and expertise will achieve the right result for your needs. This means that we can identify your individual requirements and tailor our services to match your objectives.

Here are some of the ways that we have helped our clients over many years working in different sectors and economic climates.

We were the project managers for the team that won the RIBA/LSC Sustainability Award at the RIBA/LSC Further Education Design Excellence Awards 2009 for the remodelling and refurbishment of The National Skills Academy for Financial Services, for Tower Hamlets College.

In the judges’ view we had best addressed the sustainability agenda with reference to factors including improving energy efficiency and minimising the carbon footprint.

We also received Highly Commended for "an imaginative re-use of an existing building" in the overall RIBA/LSC Further Education Design Excellence Award.

This partially listed Grade II Victorian building on the East India Dock Road desperately needed restoration and the design team had to maintain the original timber structure whilst providing a modern, professional space for students to learn.
