What we did
QSetc prepared an Indicative Cost Estimate in December 2023, revised in January 2024, to support the viability case. When the council questioned our costs, we talked their surveyor through the rates, drawn from live market data and recent tenders in Surrey Heath, and the scheme was approved.
