Testimonial
“The Bills of Quantities were delivered complete, on time, and to an excellent standard. With Concertus providing a multi-disciplinary consultancy service on this project, the added benefit was the Quantity Surveyors could liaise directly with the designers to iron out any discrepancies prior to issuing the Bills. We also found the Quantity Surveying team very responsive when queries were raised, proactive and user-friendly. We look forward to working with them on future projects.”
