Ingleton Wood has extensive experience of the commercial property sector, ranging from offices and retail projects, to technical facilities, car parks, telecommunications and industrial work.
As a multi-disciplinary Practice, we offer an integrated design and management approach to projects, including repairs and refurbishments as well as new build, extensions and alterations. The Practice provides a comprehensive consultancy service from early stage feasibility studies and concept design, through the entire project cycle up to handover.
Our interest in commercial property is not only project driven - we provide professional services including building surveys/ technical due diligence (TDD), dilapidations, neighbourly matters, planned maintenance reports and all aspects of building pathology. These services and more, form part of our comprehensive package which can be individually tailored to suit both building occupiers and owners.
Much of the Practice’s work is generated through repeat business, often working within framework agreements or with long-standing clients.
Sustainability is a fundamental aspect of our design approach, and with the introduction of Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) has brought environmental performance to the top of the design agenda especially when considering existing commercial properties. Working with our environmental design team, we seek whole-life best value solutions where capital cost is evaluated against operating expenditure. We can also evaluate renewable energy options in terms of suitability and payback periods.
Our interior design team can provide space planning and fit-out services. Working with our Building Services team, we can provide adaptable layouts which integrate the IT and data provision, provide flexible services distribution in raised floors or suspended ceilings, and achieve a design image to meet our clients’ aspirations.

David Hall, Building Surveyor, Roche Chartered Surveyors
“Ingleton Wood have been acting as technical advisors and development monitors in connection with our new office development in Basildon.
They have provided us with excellent technical support throughout the pre-construction phase and are now acting as our project monitors in order to ensure a successful outcome to this exciting project.”
Michael Harper, Managing Director, Newsquest Essex & North London
“Ingleton Wood, and in particular David Wright, have been outstanding in providing a full project management service to support the CCG in its office relocation project. All aspects of the service specification have been expertly delivered in a high quality, professional and timely manner. Ingleton Wood have managed all aspects with site contractors (from sourcing to ensuring their timely delivery) and also managed the liaison with the key stakeholders for both the outgoing and new buildings. David has also attended all meetings of the Project Board and has ensured all specific requests made by the CCG regarding the new office space have been accommodated, without any concerns, and within the agreed contract.
David has been brilliant – and I would highly recommend Ingleton Wood for the provision of project management capacity for corporate office moves.”
Ian Porter, Director of Corporate Services, NHS Camden Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG)
“What makes Ingleton Wood one of our SAM team’s trusted partners is their personal approach and dedication to ensure that commissions are delivered to a high standard even under the most challenging circumstances. This approach is at the heart of a unique partnership with one of our FM partner companies where we work together to deliver condition surveys for infrastructure projects that make a difference to building users.
More recently, Scott Barlow and his team have helped us make a positive impact by undertaking a high quality survey on time to ensure that one of our School's projects delivered its lifecycle asset replacement plan in line with contractual obligations. Ultimately, this means that we can continue to provide a great learning environment for children.”
Babajide Ogunniyi, Head of Strategic Asset Management, HCP
“Ingleton Wood have provided us with excellent dilapidations and project management services on a number of industrial units we asset manage in Colchester. Having secured solid dilapidation settlements from the outgoing tenants, their project management team have then gone on to manage the dilapidation works, within the settlement budget and to a tight programme, to allow us to secure new tenants with minimum void periods. The seamless way their differing teams work together has helped deliver successful projects for us on a repeat basis.”
Glenn Newson, Director, Farmer Real Estate Ltd.
“I would like to pass on a note of thanks to Ingleton Wood who dealt with the 11 Stone Buildings project.
All involved carried out their respective tasks with a high degree of professionalism, in good humour and without drama.
The Cost Control service was excellent, going ‘above and beyond’ to help with issues outside of the strict brief and the project came in under budget.
The design service provided was prompt and efficient, again going the extra mile.
The Project Manager pulled the whole team together, including consultants outside of Ingleton Wood, cautioned on risk items and completed the project on time.
Thanks once again.”
Philip Ardley, Programme Director & Estates Director, The Honourable Society of Lincoln's Inn
“Having not worked previously with Ingleton Wood we were delighted with the result they achieved for us when defending a dilapidation claim on one of our former offices in Leeds.
Through their expertise and negotiation skills they managed to secure a settlement which was less than 50% of the Landlord’s original claim. We look forward to working with them again as and when the need arises.”
Julie Scarr, Business Services Analyst, Countrywide Assured
“We have employed Ingleton Wood structural engineering team on several projects to provide design and detailing services for our bespoke precast concrete product range. The relationship has gone from strength to strength and we now regularly seek advice from the structural team on all projects where we feel their input is required.
The Ingleton Wood team always integrate fully into the overall design team on our projects and their willingness to liaise directly with third parties on our behalf has become invaluable as this speeds up the design process and helps to avoid potential design problems. Their level of professionalism and speed of response on our projects is always very good and we intend to continue our working relationship with them into the future.”
Tim Evans, Director of Bespoke Products, Poundfield Products
“The Ingleton Wood Architectural team have been a great support for 8build, particularly in assisting with a substantial tender bid on behalf of a large property consultancy based in Cambridge.
The team got to grips with understanding the employer’s requirements and demonstrated their knowledge of the project through tender pitches with the client.
We have also liaised with the structural engineering team with respect to tender pitches who again were very supportive and provided piling VE solutions to achieve a property client’s requirements. Thank you to all involved.”
Ian Woollison, Divisional Director, 8build
“We have worked closely with Ingleton Wood over the past four years as our Design Consultant on several design and build education projects on the Essex County Council Framework (formally SMARTE East).
Ingleton Wood have provided us with a multi-disciplinary service covering Architectural, Structural, Building Services Engineering and Planning support and have my full endorsement as an outstanding firm.
They are a very professional but friendly practice that quickly gains the confidence of our client on each project. They are able to understand the brief, translate this into concept designs, obtain planning permission on our behalf and finally provide fully co-ordinated and detailed technical designs. They are adept at option appraisal and have worked extremely well with us and our supply chain as part of a solution driven team.
From our perspective, our success often relies on the support and collaborative involvement of our design team. We have always felt that we are listened to and that the overall aims of each project are never lost. Designs are always produced accurately within committed timescales and to budget.
Working with Ingleton Wood has been a positive experience and a pleasure. Nothing has been too much trouble, no query too small and no question unanswered.
I am very pleased to say that the result of our partnership with Ingleton Wood has not only been the excellent buildings created but that we have also been able to make the process smooth and enjoyable for all concerned.”
Duncan Clark, Managing Director, Beardwell Construction
“From start to finish, on what was a fairly lengthy process, Ingleton Wood supported us and more importantly, worked with us to ensure that we moved into our beautiful listed building on time and with everything that we needed. This of course needed to be to the correct specification providing an office space that worked for our brand.
Ingleton Wood were with us for the duration of the works on site ensuring that they built strong relationships not only with us as the client, but also the contractors that were working on the building, thus making the whole process so much easier. Ingleton Wood have a fantastic all-round knowledge enabling them to provide detailed advice and guidance throughout the process.
As well as the works to our new offices, Ingleton Wood also assisted us on the dilapidations of our old offices negotiating with our previous landlords ensuring that we were given a fair settlement price.
I wouldn’t hesitate to use Ingleton Wood again – a great company!”
John Mellor, Financial Director, Benefit Cosmetics UK & Ireland
“I have been working with Ingleton Wood for many years and am always impressed with their work ethic and ability to conclude the majority of our multimillion pound portfolio dilapidations settlements successfully. Our instructions are throughout the UK and Ireland and cover offices, light industrial and retail units with floor areas from 100m² (1,000 sq ft) to 10,000m² (100,000 sq ft).”
