At Conspar, we recognise the crucial role that effective planning has in the success of projects involving the remediation and repair of buildings or waterproofing. By developing a thorough Remediation Plan prior to seeking quotations for the work we significantly reduce the risks of time and cost overruns that commonly affect such projects. These challenges often stem from hidden or latent issues, making it difficult to accurately assess the full extent of the work until it is underway. With our extensive experience planning and executing these projects since 1969, we are pleased to provide the following guide on procuring remediation works efficiently, ensuring optimal project outcomes.

Step 1: Collaborative Project Briefing
Initiate a project briefing process with Conspar to produce a property-specific Remediation Plan. Engage in comprehensive discussions and detailed investigations to establish clear project priorities, define the scope of work, specify technical requirements, specifications, warranty durations and determine the projected costs. This approach completed prior to seeking quotations ensures that all key aspects of your project are thoroughly understood and documented, setting the stage for a successful remediation process that is based on mitigating the risks of time and cost overruns that come from ambiguous project scopes.
Step 2: Detailed Quotation Request
Based on the project brief developed in Step 1, create a detailed quotation request document. Include the Remediation Plan, which outlines the specific priorities and methodologies for addressing the identified issues. Distribute the quotation request to multiple contractors, allowing them to submit their proposals based on the provided specifications. This step facilitates an accurate and fair evaluation of different contractors' capabilities and offerings, producing an 'apples for apples' assessment and quotation for the work.
Step 3: Evaluating Quotes and Choosing the Right Partner
Carefully review and evaluate the received quotes from various contractors. Assess each proposal in terms of their expertise, experience, track record, quality of work, and overall suitability for your project. While exploring multiple options, consider Conspar's proven expertise and specialised experience in remediation projects. Our long-standing reputation, commitment to quality and transparency, and our inclusion of 3rd party workmanship and materials inspections, make us an ideal partner for your project.
Step 4: Commence Remediation Works with Conspar
Where Conspar is selected as your preferred partner, initiate the remediation works with our team under a clear and transparent contractual agreement that is tied to the outcomes and details included in the Remediation Plan. Benefit from our extensive knowledge, skills, relationships with expert material's manufacturers and engineers, and site resources as we oversee the implementation of the project. Our experienced professionals will manage the entire process, with detailed reports and photographs on the progress of the work, including reports from our 3rd party inspectors.
Step 5: Monitoring Progress and Ensuring Compliance
Throughout the remediation works, Conspar will closely monitor the progress, workmanship, and compliance with specified warranty conditions. Our daily on-site supervision and reporting minimises the impact of unforeseen variations or latent conditions that could potentially lead to time and cost overruns. Regular inspections, quality checks, and proactive communication enable timely interventions and ensure a smooth and efficient project execution.
Step 6: Successful Completion and Quality Assessment
Upon completion of the remediation works, we will conduct a thorough assessment with the owners to verify the extent and quality of the completed work. Conspar will provide detailed documentation, including reports and obtain a certificate of practical completion, confirming that the project requirements have been met. Our attention to detail and commitment to quality assurance ensure that the materials used, workmanship, and compliance with warranty conditions meet or exceed the agreed-upon standards.
