This customer profile is based on a number of existing relationships and serves to give an idea as to what
the benefits of working with Shadwick UC are.
Considerate Property Development are a property development company based in South Yorkshire. They have been trading for 15 years and are very proud of their reputation for creating high-quality residential spaces.
Their portfolio of work mainly consists of 1-8 new build properties and converting disused commercial office space into apartments. Their developments have been spread out across South Yorkshire and North Derbyshire.
They have a small team in the office who are responsible for sourcing land/properties and completing all the admin support required to run the business. They have a wider team of external contractors (architect, builder, quantity surveyor etc.) who they have great relationships with and who have helped them deliver their projects over the years.
For many years, one of the biggest bugbears has been getting utility connections to their developments when required. The job to apply to the individual electric, gas and water networks has usually fallen to one of the office staff – a laborious task which they are never convinced they have got right. The quote they receive is usually long-winded and confusing and it is not always clear what the onsite team need to before the offsite work can commence. There have been many instances in the past where the networks have turned up to site and walked away as they don’t consider the site to be ready – this has incurred charges for the aborted visit.
They are convinced that there must be a solution to their problems.
Since partnering with Shadwick Utility Consultants, Considerate PD have simply submitted a location plan and a site plan with a description of the proposed development and we have dealt with everything right up to the services going live.
They are regularly updated with the progress of the utilities and do not have to chase anything. We are there to answer any questions they might have and have talked through any concerns in detail. Coordinating all the services together has saved time and money and, on several occasions, we have used our trusted partners to reduce costs even further.
If a project has been entitled to a price reduction either through environmental discounts or the future value of the connection, we have used this to reduce the overall costs of the work.
We have a great relationship with the onsite team and provide them with the detail they need to ensure the onsite aspect of the work is fully completed and that all offsite works can go ahead as planned.
