Project Management in London & The South East
Put simply, a Project Manager is responsible for the success of any building or construction project. We oversee every aspect, including the planning, execution, monitoring, control, and closure, ensuring that the timescales that have been set and budgets are met.
A Project Manager can save you time, stress, and money. Without one, an overspend of an average of 20% is likely. Imagine a £100,000 project costing £20,000 more – no thank you!
Our Project Managers can add value right from the start, helping you make the right decisions that will affect the whole life of the project.

Your Project Management Team
Dual City can help you to work out what future running costs you’re aiming for, what type of build method would be most appropriate, how you’re planning to heat your home, and what budget constraints you have.
From that, we will then put together a realistic plan, from the day-to-day progress of the build, overseeing contracts, and quality and time management.
Once planning drawings have been completed, our Project Management team can help check the designs and specifications and estimate the cost of construction.
We can act as the go-between, between you, the client, and all the services, contractors, and suppliers involved. We will plan the project with you, then organise and implement the work based on the specifications agreed between us and you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Some frequently asked questions regarding our project management services, if you have any further questions feel free to contact us and we will be glad to help.
How much does it cost to hire a project manager?
Quotes are always provided on a project-by-project basis.
We operate under a fixed fee, based on the anticipated project length, but there are various payment structures, ranging from a percentage of the build cost to an hourly or daily rate. The cost also depends on a variety of factors, such as the scope of the works, estimated length of the project, and complexity of the build.
Our Project Managers can help you to source materials at a discounted price. We manage the costs of the project so that you will recoup most of the fee back in savings you have made.
How involved should I be if I have a project manager?
Between you and us, we will establish how much input and communication you want to have.
Some clients are happy to pass everything over, while we provide regular updates on the progress with any decisions that need to be made, and others want to be more involved and are present on site most days, keeping our Project Manager involved in all discussions that may alter the project in any way.
How would a project manager oversee my renovation?
The Project manager is responsible for running the schedule and ensures everyone knows what they need to be doing. Any amendments or issues that arise are dealt with by them directly, and they will provide alternative solutions to you as and when required to ensure that the project continues as smoothly as possible.
A lot of time goes into planning and troubleshooting, and often problems can be solved without having to involve you (another reason having a Project Manager can reduce your stress levels!). When it all goes to plan, it appears smooth and easy – and you are completely unaware of the work involved.
