Most work to historic buildings requires specialist knowledge of materials, historic construction methods, legislation and possibly taxation matters in order to organise and arrange for the works to be undertaken in the best, most appropriate and most cost effective manner. Inadequate knowledge and experience in any of these respects can result in unnecessary costs, inappropriate and damaging repairs or, at worst, significant fines or even imprisonment in relation to contraventions of the legislation.
