Estimate/Quotation

It is difficult to price any project without seeing it as all projects vary depending upon prefered materials, labour costs and complexity. NHR give free estimates and quotations and resolve any questions regarding a project prior to commencement.

Design

NHR's experience can help homeowners decide on the best way to add space or functionality to their home, while keeping the home’s look and character.

Appraise

NHR evaluate an existing structure and work with local planning officials. We can then make any proposals in a clear language to help the client understand the best course of action.

Maintenance Contracts

At NHR we give a high quality service based on Communication, Organisation, Efficiency and Craftsmanship. Our Maintenance Team has experience in all trades and access to a support network, for those tasks that require clarification. Working with our Clients, Health & Safety, Social Services, Care Standards and Fire Officers, we can reduce the overall maintenance budget. Call NHR for large works, general repairs and essential callouts. We will organise repairs to minimise costs and educate Residential Staff to deal with emergencies until our arrival. All residencies can be supplied with an Essential Services List, which will identify locations for quick shutdown of problem or dangerous services. All work is signed for by a responsible member of staff and time schedules submitted with invoices.

About Us

NHR began in Nottingham in 1996. Between 1996 and 2000 the business was Restoring and Refurbishing Victorian and Edwardian houses in the West Bridgford area of Nottingham, which were passed on to buyers. Due to the high quality of work every house sold went for the asking price, or above, with a maximum of 5 viewings before the sale.
It was then decided to use the resources and offer our building services to the general public. Our emphasis is on craftsmanship, communication, planning, selective procedures and staff training.
NHR has its clients in the maintenance sector, rental properties, nursing homes, special needs accommodation, residential care homes, offices and retail outlets.
In the general building sector, NHR has property developers as well as the general public amongst it's clients.

The Project Process

Get an Estimate:
Contact us and we will arrange an appointment convenient to you for your free estimate.
Appointment:
One of our estimators will visit you on the appointed day to survey the works required. This includes our estimator taking measurements, photographs and asking questions to make a full evaluation of your project. It is important at this stage to let the estimator have any plans, planning permission and building regulation consents if it is applicable.
Preparing the Estimate:
It usually takes about 1 week to prepare an estimate, depending on the complexity of the works. Our estimators visit several customers in a week and need to obtain information from suppliers and sometimes specialists in order to put together your tailor-made estimate.
Receiving your Estimate:
All our estimates are sent out as first-class post or e-mailed if possible and state the price and description for the project. When you receive your estimate you can review the cost and the detailed items. If you have any queries or would like to add any further items please contact us to discuss this with the estimator.
When you are happy with the cost and the items detailed in the estimate simply call us or e-mail to confirm your acceptance of the estimate.
Sending a Contract:
For large projects, once we have received your acceptance of the estimate, we will send you a contract to be signed and returned to us. Depending on the size of the project we may require a deposit at this stage.
Starting Works:
We can discuss start dates for the project once we have received your signed contract and (where applicable) the deposit for the project.
Projects (depending on size and type) can be started between 1 week and 2 months from the receipt of a signed contract.
Works in Progress:
While the works are being carried out the project manager will manage the building works and be your first point of contact. You are welcome to contact us at anytime to discuss additional works, changes or queries regarding the works being done. NHR consider clear & concise communication essential.
Finishing:
When the works are complete and the workers have left your property, the project manager will visit you to appraise the finished project. We would greatly appreciate it if you could complete our customer service questionnaire to assist us to improve our services. NHR take your comments seriously and rely on them to appraise our service and improve our training.
