Therefore our early involvement could remove the need for costly revisions.
As part of our service in London we can also offer advice on the additional requirements of Approved Document Part E including the control of reverberation in common areas and the performance of internal walls and floors.
Our consultants at London can guide you through the process to ensure the best possible chance of achieving sound test passes.
