Conservation of Built Heritage

A COMMITMENT TO CONSERVATION

The Management and Conservation of our Built Heritage is central to the operations of the company and is as much of a passion to us, as a profession. Historic buildings and structures are finite resources that require careful management and periodic conservation and repair to ensure they are preserved, and where possible enhanced for future generations to enjoy. Here at Corinthia, we are perfectly positioned and equipped with the necessary expert knowledge and on-site skills and expertise to do just that.

We are able to consider and assess the significance of a building to help guide decisions and formulate conservation plans that meet the true needs of the structure. This approach to historic building conservation, management and repair, ensures that sympathetic and timely intervention takes place that has a real positive impact on the sustainability of the overall heritage asset.

At site level, we have the necessary artisan skills and expertise required to deliver workmanship of the highest standards and this level of quality is of paramount importance to ensuring the building receives the level of careful attention it deserves.

OUR PRIORITY IS ENSURING THAT THE SIGNIFICANCE AND HERITAGE VALUE(S) OF THE BUILDING OR PLACE ARE NOT COMPROMISED
