What is included & what we need

One project and contract; up to six agreed issues and 30 files or 400 searchable pages. Information limits are agreed before acceptance.

Prices in GBP for standard delivery. If paying from another currency, your bank or transfer provider will show the exchange rate and any fees before you send payment. Priority adds 25%; Urgent adds 50%, subject to availability. These reviews are alternatives for the same project. Reviews cover selected records, not a full audit. Recommendations and fix proposals relate to the agreed findings. Carrying out fixes is separately priced and accepted. Haven Measure is not currently VAT registered; no VAT is currently added.

From finding to fixing

Know the problem.
Choose the fix.

Your review should make the next step easier. For suitable work we can take on, you receive a clear, separately priced proposal.

01

What we found

The concern, the supporting record and why it matters.

02

What will help

A recommended action and the document, figures or report we can prepare.

03

What it costs

The scope, fixed fee, chosen delivery speed and agreed return date.

04

You choose

Accept the fixes you want. We reuse the relevant records and explain anything else needed.

Reviewed with us? Save 5% on eligible fixes.

For fixes directly linked to your completed Haven Measure review, we take 5% off our standard task fee. Any Priority (+25%) or Urgent (+50%) charge is then calculated on the reduced fee. Your proposal shows the normal fee, saving and total. We check the review reference before confirming the discount.

Applies to Haven’s own fee for the agreed follow-on fix, not the original review, unrelated work, third-party costs or taxes. Corrections within our agreed review correction process are handled there, not sold as extra fixes.

Illustrative example — not a client result

“Extra work is missing from this payment application.”

The proposed fix: a corrected draft application and supporting cost breakdown, using the agreed records.

Before you say yes: a fixed price, any missing information, the return date and a clear explanation of what is included.

The review covers the agreed records and concerns. It includes recommendations and suitable follow-on proposals, not implementation or guaranteed recovery. You approve and pay for any fixes separately. Formal approval or certification stays with the authorised party. Work outside our scope is identified for the appropriate specialist.

A clearer way to handle change

The right paperwork.
A clearer next step.

A site instruction, a missing drawing, extra work. Knowing what to do next should not mean starting from a blank page.

We can turn the agreed requirements in your supplied contract into useful templates, an action guide and a tracker. Live drafting and checking can be added to the agreed scope.

Built for your project and contractual role. Subject to contract, competence and scope checks.

Tell us the problem, the output you need and your deadline. Review and send your enquiry email. We confirm scope, full price and timing before you decide.

An enquiry, not an order

Start with the task you need.

A short outline is enough to start. We confirm the work, full fee and return date before you commit. No review purchase is required.

The Haven Measure approach

Tell us what you need.

Short answers are fine; optional fields can be left blank. Check and send the email draft yourself. Do not include confidential records here.

Your details

Contract and measurement Optional · “not sure” is fine

Short answers are fine. Choose “Not sure” or leave an optional answer blank; we confirm the details before agreeing the work. Keep confidential wording and documents out of this enquiry.

How urgently do you need it back?

Faster delivery costs more. Tell us your deadline; we’ll confirm availability and the full price first.

Your task priceWritten quote

We’ll agree the scope and full price before you commit.

Delivery is subject to an available slot and the agreed scope.

A requested date is not a booked slot. We confirm timing after checking the scope, records and availability. If it is not achievable, we’ll tell you before you commit.

Have a live dispute or an urgent notice deadline? Seek appropriate specialist advice promptly. This enquiry does not protect or monitor a deadline.

Your scope, price and return date — in writing.

We confirm what we understand the problem to be, what we’ll do and what you’ll receive. For international projects, we also agree the working language, currency and any local input needed. At handover, you get clear next actions and a way to raise questions or factual corrections. Further work is agreed separately.

Nothing is sent automatically. Next, check your draft and send it from your own email.

Clear commitments.

Scope and price

We agree the scope, deliverables, fee and delivery arrangements in writing before you commit. Additional work is explained and agreed separately.

Read the free practical guides →
Can you do the work, or only review it?

Both. We can review a concern or carry out an agreed quantity surveying task: for example, measurement from drawings, estimates, tender comparisons, change pricing, payment applications, cost reporting or accounts. Tell us the problem and the output you need. We check suitability and agree the exact work, fixed price and delivery date. Some tasks need site information or a separately agreed visit. Legal advice and design certification are outside the service.

Will you help fix what the review finds?

Yes. Within the agreed review scope, we explain each finding and its recommended next action. Where we can do the follow-on work, we set out the exact output, separate price, information needed and return date for you to approve. That might be a corrected draft payment application, cost breakdown, change schedule or updated report. We reuse relevant records already supplied, subject to permission and current versions. The review fee does not include carrying out those fixes, and nothing extra starts or is charged without your acceptance. Formal certification remains with the authorised certifier.

Is there a discount if you have already reviewed the problem?

Yes. Eligible fixes directly linked to a completed Haven Measure review receive 5% off our standard task fee. We verify the review reference and show the normal fee, saving and full total in the proposal. The discount is applied before any Priority (+25%) or Urgent (+50%) charge. It applies to our own fee for the follow-on fix, not the review itself, unrelated work, third-party costs or taxes. Factual corrections covered by the review are handled under that process, not as paid fixes.

Can I pay more to get it back sooner?

Yes, where capacity and the information allow. Choose Standard, Priority or Urgent and tell us your required date and time. Priority delivery adds 25% and Urgent delivery adds 50% to the agreed task fee. The guide calculates the review price including your chosen speed. We confirm scope and the achievable return date in writing before you commit. A requested date is not a booking.

Can you help with just one task?

Yes. Choose the task you need or send a brief outline. We agree the output, records, fee and timing before starting. You do not have to buy a review first.

Do you work with contractors and subcontractors?

Yes. We welcome business enquiries from every country and across construction sectors. Suitable work can be delivered remotely. We check the project country, contract requirements, expertise, insurance and any local support needed before accepting. A site visit, local specialist or translation may need a separate agreement.

Can you do the work remotely?

Much of this work can be completed remotely using the agreed contract and project records. Your site contact supplies accurate records and reports events. We agree the working language, currency and deadline time zone. Site visits, physical measurement or local specialist input are separately agreed where needed.

What is the difference between the two reviews?

The £495 Project Check looks at up to three agreed concerns on one project and contract. The £1,495 Detailed Project Check covers up to six agreed issues and a larger information pack. Both provide findings, recommended fixes and separately priced proposals for work we can take on. Completing those actions is separately scoped and accepted.

How do I book and pay?

Start by choosing a service or describing the problem, then send your enquiry. We confirm whether we can help and set out the exact work, what you will receive, the full price and the return date. If you wish to proceed, accept the order and service terms, then pay by business bank transfer using the private invoice. We confirm receipt of cleared payment. Selecting a service or preparing an enquiry does not place an order or take payment.

Will the paperwork guarantee payment or protect every deadline?

No. The agreed service helps organise and prepare commercial records. It does not guarantee payment, legal validity or entitlement. You remain responsible for notices and deadlines. Urgent deadlines, disputed interpretation and legal disputes need appropriate specialist advice.
