Our services focus on managing and coordinating health and safety throughout the pre-construction phase, helping clients meet their legal obligations while promoting safe and efficient project delivery.

What are Principal Designer Services?
Principal Designer Services involve overseeing the design phase of a construction project to ensure that health and safety risks are managed effectively. Under Building Regulations and the building safety act, Principal Designers have a legal responsibility to plan, manage, and monitor the pre-construction phase, ensuring that safety is prioritised from the earliest stages of design through to construction.
