About us
we work hard to make it feel easy
During the process of developing our business we reached out to a range of companies and asked them what they really want from a modern day “Building Control Body”.
The overriding response was “we want a service”. And “we want that service delivered at our speed”. “It needs to be proactive, supportive and work with our systems”.
We listened, and understand. Receiving slow or inaccurate responses creates frustrations, generates delays and adds to site costs. It can also make the difference between winning and losing an appointment.
Every element of our business has been designed to support and service our clients. This started with our name:
con-frere
Definition of confrere : colleague, comrade
Once we created our name we worked to develop our vision, mission and values to encapsulate what our clients wanted to see and what we believe in.
