Longworth Facades

Pre-Construction

What is Pre-Construction?

Pre-construction is the phase where design intent, cost, programme and risk are developed and coordinated before works commence on site.

It focuses on feasibility, planning, cost certainty and buildability to ensure projects can be delivered safely, compliantly and efficiently.

Trusted for Delivery

Proven track record with major commercial developments.

We provide early façade and roofing support to help shape compliant, buildable solutions from the outset. Our pre-construction service supports informed decision-making, reduces risk and sets projects up for successful delivery. Where required, we work under early design orders to assist with Gateway 2 submissions on Higher-Risk Buildings.

Key elements of our pre-construction service include:

  • Early façade and roofing strategy development

  • Cost planning, value engineering and procurement advice

  • Gateway 2 and Building Safety Act early design support

  • Programme input and buildability reviews

Risk & Compliance Support

Why it matters

Façade and roofing decisions made early in a project have a significant impact on cost, programme, buildability and regulatory compliance. Without early specialist input, projects are exposed to design gaps, coordination issues and late-stage changes that can delay approvals and construction.

Early engagement allows risks to be identified and addressed before they become problems on site. This is particularly critical on Higher-Risk Buildings, where Gateway 2 submissions require clear, coordinated and compliant design information. A structured pre-construction approach helps streamline approvals, improve certainty and set projects up for successful delivery.
