HBAS is independent in its view of historic buildings and landscapes – we only recommend what we consider to be the most appropriate action for a particular historic building or site
In our approach to heritage protection we follow the ethos of all the major UK and international conservation bodies such as:
Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB)
Institute of Field Archaeologists (IFA)
Institute of Historic Building Conservation (IHBC)
Civic Trust, and English Heritage (EH)
Historic Scotland (HS)
CADW
By giving the appropriate help to our members, when it is requested, we keep the importance of historic buildings and landscapes as our core philosophy
We are here to help you, our members, avoid the problems of many historic building owners by locating the construction methods, material suppliers, contractors or professionals that may be most suitable to meet your needs
We will alter and adapt our range and type of services to meet the changing needs and requirements of our membership
We aim to ensure a consistent level of approach when providing each client with assistance, so as to maintain a high standard of delivery and a professional service.
