Our Services

Strategic Support Across the Construction Lifecycle

We provide expert services across all phases of construction

Pre-Construction

Our pre-construction services are focused on laying a solid foundation for every project. We deliver accurate budget estimates and cost plans, provide progressive pricing for design and build contracts, and assess land through value-driven appraisals. Our expertise extends to analysing build costs and preparing detailed Bills of Quantities.

Construction Phase

Once your project moves on-site, you need dependable systems and expert guidance in place to manage cost, contracts, and change. Clarke & MacMillan acts as your trusted partner throughout the construction phase — overseeing subcontractors, accurately tracking expenditure, and proactively mitigating cost risks in real-time.

Post
Completion

During and after construction, our consultancy offers robust support for managing subcontractor claims, assessing variations, and resolving disputes. We prepare and finalise accounts, manage cost tracking, and perform valuation assessments to maintain financial accuracy throughout the build.
