Sustainability “Construction has a significant impact on the environment: over 40% of material resources used,
waste produced and energy consumed is construction related.”
As a practice we consider that energy efficient buildings are necessary for both
the environment and society as a whole. We believe that long-term sustainable developments and
carbon neutral housing are within the grasp of the industry and we aim to collaborate with partners
on projects in achieving these goals.
Randall &
Simmonds have a dedicated team of trained Sustainability Consultants, Code for Sustainable Homes
and BREEAM Assessors, led by our Sustainability Champion, who provide advice to all our clients and
partners. Whenever we are engaged to provide on a project we examine the scheme from an
environmental perspective to minimise its overall impact.

Ecohomes / Code for Sustainable Homes Assessments on more than 200
housing projects throughout the South of England. To date we have completed over 100 certified

for Sustainable Homes ‘Level 4’ standards. We continue to look for opportunities to build upon
these achievements We also advise on
