Ecological Appraisal
Encon Associates were commissioned to carry out an Ecological Appraisal for an existing building to be demolished to make way for a new retail and residential development in Sneinton, Nottingham.
The proposed scheme is to demolish an existing building and construct a new residential development to meet Code for Sustainable Homes level 3. The Ecology Appraisal enabled the scheme to gain additional credits towards achieving the required Code Level.
As well as providing an ecological appraisal for the scheme, Encon Associates were able to provide many other services to deliver the project including a Code Pre-Assessment, Transport Assessment, Topographical Survey and Acoustic Survey.

Encon Associates were employed by ourselves as BREEAM Assessor and Approved Professional on 3 contracts running concurrently in Sheffield. At all times through the project they were able to provide clear detailed advice on requirements to ourselves and our supply chain, and were able to offer additional services where required (including compiling the Tenant Green Guide Specification).
The use of the IES TaP for BREEAM portal has proved a useful tool in tracking the BREEAM process, providing us as a main contractor a simple and user friendly way to co-ordinate the BREEAM evidence requirements with the designers and our supply chain.
The team have promptly assessed evidence when received and provided detailed feedback to ensure any compliance issues were understood – we would have no hesitation in employing Encon Associates on our future BREEAM schemes.
