Conservation and Repair

Conservation and Repair

Ablett Architects have an established record of working on repair and conservation works to historic buildings of differing periods, many being listed.  We have AABC accreditation.

We undertake an analysis of the defects and the decay mechanisms to understand the reasons for decay and commissioning specialist reports as necessary.  We also seek to understand the importance of the various parts of the structure.  Thereafter we prepare proposals for repair, adopting a minimal intervention ‘like for like’ repair approach overseeing contractors and specialists through to completion.

We are passionate about historic buildings. We seek to understand the phases of change and evolution, the intricacies of the building, the decay mechanisms, the repair and conservation challenges as well as working closely with client representatives to develop the longer-term vision.
