Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our Project Management service for commercial and residential property clients across London and the UK.

What does a commercial project manager do?

A commercial project manager takes single-point responsibility for delivering a building project from inception to completion. Acting for the client, they define the brief, appoint and coordinate the design team, procure the main contractor, manage the programme and budget, control change and risk, and oversee construction through to practical completion and handover. Botley Byrne provide RICS-regulated project management for commercial and residential schemes across London and the UK.

How much does construction project management cost in the UK?

Project management fees are usually charged as a percentage of the total construction cost, typically in the region of 2–5% depending on the size, complexity, and duration of the project, or as a fixed fee for smaller or clearly defined instructions. We agree a transparent fee and scope at the outset so there are no surprises. Contact us for a tailored quotation; we respond to every enquiry within 24 hours.

What is the difference between project management and contract administration?

Project management covers the full lifecycle from brief to completion, including design coordination, procurement, programme management, and team leadership. Contract administration is specifically the formal role defined in the building contract, issuing instructions, certifying payments, and managing the contract terms. We often provide both services on the same project, giving you a single, accountable point of contact.

When should I appoint a project manager on a construction project?

Appointing a project manager at the earliest opportunity delivers the greatest value. Early involvement, ideally at RIBA Stage 0–1, allows us to set the right project framework, brief the design team effectively, and build programme and budget certainty before you commit to construction. It is the single most effective way to protect your time, cost, and quality objectives.

Can you manage office refurbishment and fit-out projects in occupied buildings?

Yes. We have extensive experience delivering refurbishment, CAT A and CAT B fit-out, and development projects in occupied commercial buildings across London and the UK. We manage phased works, site logistics, and occupier liaison to keep the project moving while minimising disruption to your business operations.

Are your project managers RICS-regulated?

Yes. Botley Byrne is a RICS-regulated firm and our project managers are RICS-chartered surveyors. Every instruction is delivered to Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors professional standards and backed by full professional indemnity insurance, giving you independent, accountable project leadership across London and the UK.
