David Long Architects offer a comprehensive sustainability design and consultation service for homeowners, businesses and developers. This ranges from small scale improvements to total refurbishments incorporating the latest sustainable technologies.

The services and skills we offer cover the following:

• Design solutions incorporating simple and straightforward methods such as upgrading insulation, installing more efficient heating systems, and using passive ventilation and thermal mass to improve the energy performance of your home, reducing utility bills and increasing the value of your property. These improvements can either be standalone but usually incorporated within other improvements and reorganization of properties.
• We work collaboratively with sustainability consultants
  to develop more complex solutions incorporating
  technologies such as ground source heat pumps, heat
  exchangers, biomass boilers etc.
• Preparation of Site Development Strategy and
  Development Brief
• Managing the development of existing buildings and
  converting them into ‘Low Carbon Workspaces’. This is
  a highly successful process which unlocks significant
  value from existing buildings – making them highly
  marketable for both renting and selling.
• Advice on the range of grants and tax breaks
  available from the Government for the installation
  of sustainable technologies.
• Designs which incorporate sustainable materials,
  low embodied energy and flexibility for future use.
