Abstract

Outlines the work undertaken to repair and upgrade ′The Milliners′, a 16th century structure and Grade II listed building. Discusses the initial thorough investigation of the house, and the methods by which the owner′s brief to retain the character of the house while allowing for a high standard of modern services, was carried out. Details the problems of inserting services into the structure without cutting into the floor and the installation of central heating radiators into the outside wall of one of the bedrooms. Explores the work of the building contractor, electrical services contractor and mechanical services contractor, supervised by a clerk of works. Suggests that the work would have been more efficiently carried out by a single consultant.
