Quantity Surveying

Independent cost and commercial advice throughout the project lifecycle.

Tantallon Projects provides clear, commercially focused Quantity Surveying (QS) services for private clients, developers, and professional teams. Our role is to give clients confidence in cost, value, and risk — from early feasibility through to final account.

We work closely with the wider project team to ensure cost implications are understood as designs develop, supporting informed decisions at each stage of the process.

Typical services include:

  • Feasibility studies and cost planning

  • Procurement and tender advice

  • Contract administration and change control

  • Cost reporting during construction

  • Final account agreement

When Should You Appoint a Quantity Surveyor?

Many clients ask what a QS actually does and when they should get one involved.

We’ve outlined how QS support works across the full lifecycle of a project — from early cost planning through to final account.
