Architectural conservation is the core of our business. We focus on the conservation and repair of historic structures and interiors. Understanding heritage values, we look to sustain the integrity of your building.

From palaces and castles to Victorian bandstands and public toilets, Calibre is experienced in the conservation of all historic structures.

We undertake condition surveys, architectural paint research, materials analysis and preliminary trials, in order to assess the exact nature, condition and significance of your fabric. These results allow us to define a clear conservation strategy, prioritise maintenance and repairs, establish the most appropriate materials and methodologies for your structure and avoid any unnecessary treatments.

At Calibre, we take pride in collaboration and the sharing of knowledge. Working in specialist teams covering a wide range of conservation skills, our experienced conservators think laterally and adopt a flexible approach.

We act as a single point of contact, managing projects efficiently and professionally, from start to finish. Working collaboratively with you, the client, Calibre Conservation provides cost effective solutions, successfully delivering projects both in the UK and abroad.
