PMP Building Surveying were instructed by the client in the restoration of The Border Hotel in Kirk Yetholm after a major fire.

PMP Building Surveying liased closely with the client from feasibility stage through to tender, contract administration through to final account and providing all statutory consents in order to return the hotel to its former glory.

PMP Building Surveying dealt with sensitive Listed Building issues along with providing technical solutions to Building Control requirements in restoring the hotel, as not only was it one of eight remaining properties within the Borders which had a thatch roof, the hotel was located within a conservation area.

The refurbishment and restoration of The Border Hotel was an insurance claim, and close cooperation with the Loss Adjuster was required throughout the duration of the works.

Tight timescales for completion of the works were placed on the contractor to ensure the client could resume business at the earliest possible date.
