Lathams writes:
At Lathams, we have worked on a huge range of historic buildings, from Grade I listed castles to simple Victorian barn conversions. We’re passionate about preserving, restoring, repairing and reusing existing buildings, always maintaining their dignity and spirit while introducing modern and contemporary features which complement the heritage of the site.
Conservation of heritage properties is the foundation of our company, and our detailed understanding of the fabric of these buildings, how and when they were built and any planning or building constraints, helps us to develop effective and realistic plans to keep them thriving and alive….

The IHBC writes:
Quality assurance for HESPR listing is strictly controlled through the employment a Full IHBC member – the ‘Designated Service Adviser’ (DSA) – in a role that allows them to take professional responsibility for the service standards offered to clients. This means that the IHBC can ensure that our members are in a reasonable position to offer their assurance of the quality of the conservation services. As such the DSA should be the first port of call for any concerns over work carried out by a HESPR company.
You can find the ‘Designated Service Adviser’ (DSA) listed on the dedicated HESPR business webpage and on the list of accredited practitioners linked from the IHBC’s homepage.’
