Heritage Projects
Our Heritage Experience
Working with historic and listed buildings requires care, sensitivity, and a deep understanding of both heritage value and modern performance. At We Are Ease, we support clients in navigating the unique technical, regulatory, and conservation challenges that come with heritage projects—ensuring treasured buildings are protected while enabling them to evolve for contemporary use.
Whether you are restoring a listed private residence, adapting a heritage asset, or delivering a complex refurbishment within a conservation setting, we provide clear guidance, structured delivery, and confident leadership from the earliest feasibility stages through to completion. Our role is to safeguard the character of the building while ensuring the project remains viable, compliant, and successfully delivered.
Why Choose We Are Ease?
Heritage construction demands precision, specialist coordination, and rigorous quality control. We manage the construction phase on your behalf, working closely with conservation specialists, skilled craftspeople, and contractors experienced in historical fabric of a building.
By carefully overseeing methods, materials, and sequencing, we protect the integrity of the building while maintaining programme certainty and cost control—giving you confidence that sensitive works are being delivered to the highest standard.
Our project management service provides structured leadership tailored to the complexities of heritage environments. We coordinate consultants, manage statutory approvals, oversee risk, and maintain alignment between conservation requirements, design ambition, and commercial objectives.
Through clear governance and proactive communication, we remove uncertainty and ensure your heritage project progresses with confidence, transparency, and control.
For clients investing in heritage assets, we offer end-to-end development management that balances preservation with long-term value. From feasibility, planning strategy, and listed building consent through to procurement and delivery, we guide every stage with both commercial awareness and conservation sensitivity.
Our approach helps unlock sustainable new uses and maximise value while fully respecting the historical significance and architectural integrity of the building.
Peter Beacham, Director of Heritage Protection, English Heritage
“The concept itself – of building four large houses on top of the ancient monument and coping with the bulk of the old chapel looming over the cliff-like site – is almost jaw-dropping in its ambition. That it has been realised so apparently seamlessly is a tribute to the architectural skills of the team who have successfully navigated the complexities and constraints to deliver a development of sustained quality and architectural delight.”
