FOR INTERIOR DESIGNERS

Your design.Clearly delivered.

You create the vision. Built Clear coordinates the construction work needed to bring it to life, with transparent costs, a clear programme and one point of contact for the agreed build.

We work alongside interior designers on residential renovations, extensions and refurbishments.

A CONSIDERED PARTNERSHIP

A construction partner,
not another layer of confusion.

A successful project needs more than the right trades. It needs the drawings, specifications, decisions and deliveries to reach those trades at the right time.

We bring those elements together, flag questions early and keep you and your client involved where a decision affects the design, cost or programme.

  1. 01

    Respect for the design

    Work is coordinated around the agreed drawings and finish schedules. Proposed substitutions are raised for approval, not left for site to decide.

  2. 02

    Visible costs

    The client can see the underlying project costs, with the commercial arrangement explained before work starts.

  3. 03

    Joined-up sequencing

    Joinery, lighting, plumbing, finishes and specialist installations are considered together, not as isolated packages.

  4. 04

    Clear communication

    Practical queries reach the right person. Agreed decisions are recorded and passed on to the team.

  5. 05

    Defined responsibilities

    We agree who is designing, approving, ordering, supplying and installing each element.

THE OPEN-BOOK APPROACH

Clarity in the numbers.
Space for informed decisions.

We prepare a guide to the construction cost from the available plans and specification, helping identify allowances and details still to be resolved.

The guide is not a fixed-price promise. As the design develops, we explain the cost and programme implications before the client authorises the affected work.

For full open-book construction. The management fee is a fixed sum for the defined scope; client-direct purchases are identified separately.

YOUR PEOPLE, PART OF THE PLAN

Already have a trusted team?

Your preferred joiner, lighting specialist or kitchen supplier can be discussed as part of the delivery plan, with coordination arrangements agreed before work begins.

If your client already has a builder or established trades, a project-management-only appointment may be the better fit.

GOOD QUESTIONS, CLEAR ANSWERS

Working together.

Will Built Clear take over the design?

No. Our role is construction planning and coordination within the agreed appointment. We raise practical questions and proposed alternatives for the appropriate designer and client to consider.

Can you get involved before the design is complete?

Yes. Early involvement can help identify construction allowances, sequencing questions and information still needed. Initial figures are based on the information available, with unresolved items made clear.

Who approves changes?

We agree the approval process at the outset. Design decisions, spending approvals and instructions to trades are recorded and routed to the people authorised to make them.

Where do you work?

Our main focus is Chester, Cheshire and North Wales. We review the location, scope and required site involvement before agreeing an appointment.

LET’S MAKE THE NEXT STEP CLEAR

Let’s discuss what you are designing.

Share the location, a brief outline and the stage you have reached. We can discuss whether full open-book construction or a project-management-only appointment is the right fit.
