Architects: what NU does on a kitchen, a loft or a basement

If you are an architect looking for a contractor in London for a kitchen extension, a loft conversion or a basement, here is what working with NU Projects involves. No pitch, just the shape of it.

Estimating from your drawings

Send us the drawings and our quantity surveyor will price them. You get a measured estimate you can put in front of your client before the scheme is fixed, which is the point at which a number is still useful. We do this for architects whether or not we end up building the job.

An in-house surveyor and a site team

Cost and site sit in the same building here. A quantity surveyor, project managers and a site team, on Fulham High Street. That means one set of people to ring when something on the drawing meets something in the ground, rather than a chain of three.

What we build

Kitchen extensions, loft conversions, basements and whole house renovations, mostly across west and north west London, since 2010. You can see completed work on our projects page.

Come and see a live site

The most useful thing an architect can do before recommending a contractor is stand on one of their sites while the work is running. Ask us and we will arrange it, and we will give you the client’s number as well.

Talk to us

If you have a project that needs a contractor, send us the drawings, or call the studio on 020 7731 6841. We are happy to price a scheme that is still at concept stage and say what it will cost to build.
