Hard Facilities Management for
Conservation and Historic Buildings in
London & Kent
Tailored PPM services for your conservation sites, heritage and listed buildings
In conservation settings (including listed buildings, heritage estates, and protected landscapes) hard FM planned preventative maintenance (PPM) delivery requires a careful balance between statutory compliance and preserving historic fabric and character.
Â
PPM programmes must account for the sensitivities of listed building consent, conservation area restrictions, and heritage-specific guidance from bodies such as Historic England, alongside standard obligations under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974.
Â
Specialist, sympathetic maintenance approaches are essential, particularly for mechanical and electrical interventions that could otherwise compromise original materials or structural integrity.
Â
A well-managed PPM strategy protects both the long-term condition of the asset and its heritage value, ensuring compliance is achieved without undermining the historic significance that makes these buildings worth preserving.

Talk to us
Works to listed buildings may need consent under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990, and fire safety measures such as new fire doors or alarm cabling need careful thought. Historic England guidance supports sensible, proportionate fire safety in heritage buildings. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 still applies, so we help you meet it without compromising the building.
