Lesterose works closely with project architects and engineers to provide a valuable advisory design role crucially at pre and post-tender stage.

This service has again evolved over the years and is a direct response to client demand.

Its scope has been tailored to specific areas of major contract brickwork and given Lesterose’s 30 year tenure within the industry, few are in a position to match the high degree of specialist knowledge and expertise available. 

Project material selection

The service focuses on ‘detail’ design issues and has proved extremely beneficial, for example, in the selection of a wide range of project materials encompassing everything from brickwork support systems, wind posts and pre-cast concrete units to re-constituted stonework, damp-proof coursings and facing brick selection.

This is achieved through long-term relationships with Lesterose’s own supply chain, the majority of whom manufacture these materials and products and also recognise their own design responsibilities within the overall project process.

As the crucial link in this part of the construction process, Lesterose offers design advice and provides detailed design specification for clients using AUTOCAD.
