About the Claim

Our client’s studios were constructed to meet the highest standards, and designed with flexibility in mind, by considering the potential for future relocation. The design incorporated the ability to easily strip down the building to its shell if a decision was made to move to alternative premises. Our focus was on thoroughly reviewing the acoustical aspects of the building. We examined and distinguished between movable elements and those integrated into the structural framework. This in-depth analysis was crucial to fully understanding the complexities of the space and optimise the capital allowances claimed.
